Things are moving along for our thriller webseries, "No Tomorrow"! Set to shoot October 26!

Here's a excerpt from the treatment:

Using the show-about-a-show format, NO TOMORROW is a webseries about what goes on in front of and behind the cameras of a dark, edgy, “reality” show. It’s also a competition show, where the players—the homeless, the forgotten and broken, are pitted against each other on illegal “missions."

The missions are shot in a Go-Pro, body cam, found footage style; raw and immediate, we see the action as it happens. We also see behind the cameras, witnessing the people controlling the show, their lives oftentimes as chaotic and dysfunctional as the people they’re shooting. Further back is the digital audience, who, through social media, influence the show, never realizing it’s not a game.

Agendas will be revealed, alliances formed and broken, layers upon layers uncovered. Because, after all: "When there’s nothing left to lose, winning is everything."

I'm pleased to announce The Other Austen Girl is nominated for Best Feature Screenplay at the Austen Under The Stars Film Festival, which will be at the beautiful Domain in Austin Texas. https://www.facebook.com/austinunderthestars/photos/a.1639827082802442/2448357121949430/?type=3&theater
