Actually, you may likely know more people here than I. The majority of my career in film and TV has been spent far from here. Only in the last couple of years have I worked in state. Glad to find Stage 32! :)

Thanks Persephone, very nice of you. I am north of the city a bit but used to trekking into Seattle often. I'd be interested to learn more about the web series event.
