FEEDBACK

Norman Anderson writes:

It feels like, in my opinion, that you are spot on about the television industry. Independent producers and production companies could revive the industry. How that would actually all come together I don’t exactly know, but I definitely believe that it could be possible. It makes me happy that you are able to continue working through all this nonsense, both industry and state of the country as well. Thank you for keeping up with the newsletter. 🙏🏻

Thank you for encouraging me to do so.

I haven’t seen it, but I hear it’s very moving. A lot of children were touched by it.

Too soon?
