hello, all

peter here

writing you from the frenzied world of hollywood

finished shooting PING PONG PLAYA (with my friend and yours scott lowell), which was a total blast

very hopeful that we've got a fun, funny, enjoyable film for you to see

am also starting production on LEAVING BARSTOW, a beautiful script by kevin sheridan that i am going to direct

it looks like we're getting some spectacular talent to star in it - will let you know as soon as things are official

have also been writing a lot

my new writing partner brad bredeweg is terrific, and really keeps me on my toes

there's some good news about all that coming to, but i don't want to say anything until contracts have been drawn up

how's that for a teaser?

thank you to everyone who has left messages in the guestbook - i DO read them, and they often bring a smile to my face or a tear to my eye

and if i've been having an especially difficult day, i can honestly say those kind words have been known to turn everything around

also, SAY UNCLE is on Showtime this month, so if you haven't caught it yet, now's your chance

and thank you to everyone who's seen it - even if you didn't like it

i set out to create something difficult but engaging and thought-provoking, and based ont he wide-array of responses i've heard and read, i succeeded a hundred-fold

i hope everyone is having a great summer...

be kind to each other
