In Finishing School
people come together
to help each other
stay on schedule with creative tasks
and get projects finished.
And we always begin every new session by asking each participant to say a little about themselves and about the project. So this is a little online form to gather some information that will help us work together more efficiently when we start.
That’s all we need for now. I suggest you get a copy of the Finishing School book. Also, come to think of it, why not take a look at the blog on the Finishing School book site, as it will give you a feeling for our approach. –Cary T.
Cary,
I didn’t say much about myself.
Here’s a little bio from Black Fountain Press, Luxembourg’s only English-language publishing house. I’m just pasting it in here, with my new married name.
Cecile Somers-Lee is a copy writer and voice artist best known for telling people “The person you are trying to call, is not available right now”. She was born in the Netherlands in 1963, but grew up in Luxembourg where she attended the European School. She studied English Literature and Linguistics at Leiden University, and followed several writing workshops, which led to the publication of her first children’s book Vijf citroenen en een varkentje (De Bezige Bij, Amsterdam). She is an IMDB-listed scriptwriter, having written the scripts for animated films The Golden Horse and Thelma’s Perfect Birthday (in production). A member of the Luxembourg Neuman Park Writers, she is currently working on a screenplay starring cleaning ladies and librarians, and trying to finish her underground cult novel Cornflakes for the Underworld (formerly known as The Cactus Chronicles), about people living inside the Cactus supermarket at Belle Étoile. It’s an underground cult novel because many people have heard about the book but very few have actually read it (the latter on account of it still being unfinished).
Subject to change! 🙂
Sincerely,
Cecile
