Me: That’s Snoopy and Lucy our producers over in Canada
Nell: It is.
Me: They look absolutely exhausted.
Nell: They are. They’ve been in financial strategy meetings for months.
Me: I know. Poor things. It’s been a long time since we heard from them.
Nell: But we finally did yesterday and we thought we should update you all.
Me: Yes. They’ve been very busy working behind the scenes with Shel and Theresa on getting the rest of the finances together to make the pilot episode of the ‘Conversations with Nell’ animation series.
Nell: With your help we had already managed to raise half the amount needed.
Me: Yes, and the good news is that after much negotiation we are finally in a position to start working on the animation.
Nell: Shel is going to take the pilot to a huge television market called MipCom in Cannes in October to present it to potential buyers.
Me: Yes, he wants to find the right platform.
Nell: Is he going by train? Surely flying is easier.
Me: Platform as in ‘place for it to be screened’.
Nell: I see. Anyway, we wanted to let you know as soon as we heard because it is thanks to your support and generosity that we are able to do this.
Me: Yes. It’s so exciting. We are a big step closer to making my dream come true.
Nell: I always knew it would happen.
Me: I had my doubts along the way, but I kept hoping.
Nell: Just imagine seeing us all on screen.
Me: I’m hoping I can stay in the background.
Nell: Stuff and nonsense. This is your time to shine.
Me: I’m more of an observer, Nell.
Nell: We’re doing this together. You and me. Always.
Me: Yes, you’re right. We are. Sorry.
Great news; another hurdle jumped! 🥰🤗🐾
