    “

    LOU JONES has written the perfect awkward meet up between former... friends? Rivals? Fellow writers? THE QUEEN OF SHAMELESS PLUGS would be so much fun to bring to life for a seasoned actress. Audiences will recognize the moment and the weakness... we all have been there for one thing or another.

    “

    Wow. SOUCY speaks the words that float in my soul on a daily basis, but he does it with word choices with such flare and passion that I am jealous I didn't write them myself. "Flaming piles of shit that cannot be stomped out with even the most industrial of boots." - YES!!!! We live in shameful times, friends.
