Update #13: Curled up, finishing "Thunder"
HELLO THUNDERERS,
We are here in Michigan, finishing up the film! It's going to be beautiful. It's amazing how, now that we are editing, the project is starting to take on a life of it's own. That's when, I think, stuff really starts to flow. When it feels like everything is telling you where it wants to go, how it wants to be said, etc.
Anyhoo--we are wanting to compile a bank of all of your addresses, you-oh-so-wonderful-people who became part of this project, so we can mail you all the gifts we have promised you and more....
GET READY FOR THUNDER!!!!
lots of Witchy love,
B+B
