Get famous-today
I started this blog in July 2011. Like many famous folks, I surround myself with good people. However, one of them pointed out it’s been more than 50 days since the blog project began. I lovingly reminded them that I did not say specifically which 50 days.
50 days to get famous.
I get it, I get it, I get it.
While I may not be famous, I get famous. Highs and lows, lovers and haters, raving fans and smarmy critics. In other words, what I call Tuesday.
Persistance is an 11-letter word, which like my skill set, is hard to define without demonstration.
Below is the reply from a producer to whom I submitted a reality series proposal for the Wits of the Wit & Writing series we created based on the work of the CHEERS project.
As I wrap up this blog project, I resist listing all the stuff that we created while I waited to hear back on this proposal (here is a link to the first entry in this blog, where I first mentioned this unlikely opportunity) and instead I will get on with all the ways I can sign my 8”x10” photos.

Hi Eva,
Hope you’re well.
I have been trying to envision where Wits could fit into a television format and wondering if it would make 13 half hour episodes, which is the normal minimum for television.
Wits definitely has appeal, but I after much reflection, I don’t see it as an ongoing series.
However, I’m doing development on a series about Laughter, and I’m wondering if you would be interested in having you and Wits be the subjects, potentially, of an episode if it comes to fruition?
All best,
E.
