Below you will find a short slide show of my weekend at the Movieguide Awards in Hollywood. My screenplay Play Ball took 1st Runner Up at the Kairos Prize and I want to personally take this time and thank every person who has emailed me, responded on Facebook or on my blog here. I have read every comment posted and was overwhelmed by the generous outpouring of well-wishes. I heard from many family and friends and people I have known, worked with or crossed paths with over the years; it was great to hear from you all. Since being back from California, I have said this to a few people that winning was made that much sweeter when I saw the joy it brought others. I feel like I won twice. Thank you.
As part of the prize, Play Ball will be sent out to producers. I also will be shopping it around to production companies and agents in an effort to find a home for this project. I am not sure what to expect, but I do know it’s a good script that deserves to be seen by an audience. Hopes are high. And no matter what happens, the work of writing continues…
Enjoy the slide show.
You deserve it and more! Congratulations Romeo. You are an outstanding writer (I teach grade 2’s!). I can’t wait to see another amazing production you wrote and directed! Keep me posted!
GOD Bless.
