Going to Banff!

I found out yesterday that I'm definitely going to the Banff World Television Festival in June. I got a fellowship from CTV. Thank you CTV! I've been hearing amazing things about the networking opportunities there for the last 2 years, so I'm very excited to be going. I'll be taking ideas for two drama series and a couple of lifestyle shows, but I'm also just excited to hear and possibly meet panelists including Rob Thomas (Veronica Mars creator), Jenji Kohan (Weeds creator), Ben Silverman, (Exec Producer of Ugly Betty), and Greg Daniels (Exec Producer of The Office).

In other, but possibly related, news, while I'm sad that Falcon Beach got cancelled, this opens the door to me, or one of the other 3 writers originally from Winnipeg at this year's CFC!, or possibly, conceivably someone else, to bring a great show to the 'Peg!
