A little trip down memory lane…

Hey, remember this? And this? And this? I get goosebumps every time I watch them. Hard to believe that I’ve spent some 17 years in space!

Hey, remember this?

And this?

And this?

I get goosebumps every time I watch them.

Hard to believe that I’ve spent some 17 years in space!

The Calm Before the Storm!

Yep.  That’s what it feels like to me.  There was something in the air this weekend – the sense of burgeoning buzz, a storm cloud of activity looming on the horizon.  What lies ahead?  Well, I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you…with kindness and ask you not to tell anyone because I may be totally wrong.  Still… Had a dream last night I was assisting Brad Wright with a new season of Stargate.  Not a new series but, of all things, a sixth season of Stargate: Atlantis.  Crazy?  Prescient?  Crazy-prescient?  Probably just the effects of that Carolina Reaper hot sauce I had with the chicken tacos. But let’s not discount some weird syncing with the universal harmony as yesterday offered all sorts of fortuitous incidents. The first – Akemi and I were taking an early walk down King Street when we happened upon our old friend, and Canadian celebrity chef, Vikram Vij who was in town for a cooking event.  The second – Akemi and I were walking down King Street some three hours later and happened across Akemi’s favorite youtube personalities, Simon and Martina, who are in town visiting family (and checking out the local …

I mean, what are the chances?  There was definitely something in the air yesterday.  And, after those completely random run-ins, is it too much to assume that maybe, just maybe, last night’s dream was a sign?

Nah, you’re right.  It probably was the tacos.

Well, we’re settled in to our new place, but no sign of either the coffee table or the book shelf we ordered.  No wall-mounted t.v. either but, in the meantime, this will do in a pinch –

Project and Lifely Updates!

Had a meeting regarding the Untitled Awesome Project today.  This one has me all kinds of excited for a two simple reasons: theme and tone.  It’s something this prospective sci-fi series shares with three other shows I’ve done in the past, specifically: Stargate: SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis, and Dark Matter.  Sense of fun?  Check!  Sense of humor?  Check!  Sense of family?  Check! The wheels are in motion and I’m hoping we can bring this to you sooner than later, and fill that Stargate/Dark Matter-size hole in all of your hearts!  And, who knows, should the pieces fall into place, there may be an opportunity to check in with an old friend or two. Received word today that the deal on that horror novel is about to close.  When the time comes, I’ll be collaborating with the author on a pitch deck and pilot.  Not for the faint of heart. Meanwhile, poised to go to script on that other “east coast” horror series.  i’s are dotted.  t’s are crossed.  Let’s do this! Speaking of collaborations, the ball has started rolling on that comic book adaptation.  It’s a great, high concept premise with potential for equal parts humor and heartbreak. Had a conversation …
