Strike On

A few people, mostly friends and family concerned with my financial well-being, have been asking me if the WGA strike affects me or not. Since I am neither American nor a member of the Writer's Guild, the quick answer is: no. But, as with so many other things, the outcome of this strike in the states will set the bar for us up here. So it's safe to say I have a stake in it, even if that's down the road a ways for me, career-wise.

And for those of you who are interested... or those of you who couldn't care less because you were led to believe by certain media outlets that this strike is all about a bunch of whiny rich Hollywood writers trying to fleece even richer whinier Hollywood producers, Mark Harris lays the whole thing out rather nicely at EW.com.

Thanks for your concern.
