but… I simply have to interrupt the Cleveland International Film Festival festivities to make a very important announcement:
The charming, multi-talented, witty, funny as hell, all around great guy and can’t forget, word genius, Mr. Jeremy Edwards will be making an appearance over at F-stop tomorrow, Sunday, March 21st…. And yes, yes, yes, of course, you’re excused to get up from your movie seat and go and read all about his thoughts and take a little peek at his image (s). Yeah, I know how you feel. I’m equally excited to learn more about what Jeremy has to say about exposing…himself. Ahem. Awww…come on now, you know what I mean!
See, now aren’t you glad I interrupted your film watching ways?
Pass the popcorn, its Jeremy!
Neve Black
Wow, thank you, Neve!!
I think this is the first time I’ve ever been the cause of a film-festival interruption. (Well, except for the time I accidentally wandered into the projection room while looking for the champagne concession, and I noticed this little wobbly loop of film sticking out of the projector … and I thought I’d do them a favor by tidying it up, so I moistened my fingers with a bit of spirit gum and grabbed ahold of the celluloid in my left hand, while steadying myself against the Peter Sellers poster with my right, and then somehow …)
P.S. After that super-wonderfully generous introduction you gave me above, my ears have turned bright pink. (You could see for yourself, if it weren’t for the fact that the picture up top has my ears out of frame.)
Hi Jeremy!
“…while steadying myself against the Peter Sellers poster….” Crack up! Me thinks you could be a modern day Peter Sellers sometimes, Jeremy. Oh, I love your generous spirit, your quick and smart wit that rings with a whimsical and positive vibe. You’re an inspiration to all artists. And I’m very proud of you for writing and completing your novel. Bravo!You’re a talented man and I consider you a good friend. I’m so glad you decided to F-stop. Stop the film, I’m getting off (no pun intended) here.
p.s. sorry about the pink ears and double sorry I can’t see them.
You give the grrrrreatest compliments, Neve! Your talent, pizzazz,* gift for humor, and sensuous imagination inspire me right back! And speaking of noveling, I’m in line to be proud of you all over again when you do the next one. It’s a privilege to be your friend, and it was an honor to be able to post my ruminations at F-Stop.
*NB: That says pizzazz, not pizzas. Though for all I know you make a great pizza.
NB: Cool, you and “nota bene” have the same initials! Did you and Nota call each other up this morning to coordinate your attire?
kisses and thank you’s, Jeremy.
