Writer’s Update

Now freshly hammered with notes from all parties involved, I am heading into the second draft of Fraggle Rock. Fear not, no disastrous notes like adding a funny robot sidekick. Every producer and studio exec has been really cool, almost “Fraggle-like” with their enthusiasm and notes for the script. It feels like everyone is pulling for the same thing. 

Now on the other hand, if I had a robot sidekick, that would be Crantastic.
We’ve had lengthy discussions about the plot and character details, and I am so grateful to have some Fraggle Experts in the room. There are many, like Ahmet Zappa, who know far more than I about what Gobo would do or what Uncle Matt really thinks. And Lisa Henson has been constantly watchful over maintaining a true Fraggle Rock tone. 
As a surprise, I even drew up 100 storyboard panels for a chase sequence. I hope it has helped to get the team into the “visual groove” that’s in my head. 
Yes, I have a groove in my head. Maybe it’s more of a divot. Or just an empty spot where I used to access my adjectives. Words falling from brain now. Not type good no. Must go write happy good script yes… bye.
