Thank you one and all for the wonderful, productive meeting tonight!  It's thrilling to see this team work as a living organism....sign of great things to come!   For those who couldn't make it, we are now officially Hard Right Production Company.  Feel free to use that name when you're asking folks for favors...people like knowing that you have a title of some sort.  
We are delighted to announce our latest member, Veronica Erikana from Barrow, Alaska, who will be playing the part of Alice-Margretted Leander ("A.M.").  She has a wonderful, bubbly personality, as perfect for any part as I have seen.  She's been teaching us all some Inupiat.  I'm really looking forward to the flashback scene when A.M. teaches Lisa how to eat muktuk.  It's destined to be a classic, if I say so myself.  Thank you so much, Veronica, for arriving at such a crucial time!

Speaking of crucial...we still need an actress for Lisa.  Our first alternate, XiaoPien Hulbert, just had a baby yesterday, so she is understandably not quite in a position to play Lisa....but perhaps she will be in a few weeks.  I really think she will make a perfect Lisa, but of course, motherhood responsibilities take priority.    Everyone, please keep an eye out for a potential Lisa.  We really want to shoot the cabin scene before the snow flies.  Lisa is around thirty, fairly small, and, most importantly, nerdy-looking.  And Chinese, of course.  And whoever plays her has to be able to make a firm commitment to the role.  Hopefully this will be someone who's been in Fairbanks for a while.

Although we definitely prefer Fairbanks actors, we will consider an exceptional Lisa from the lower 48, if necessary.  Once we begin shooting, things should go pretty fast.

Ahh...so many things to say.  Oh yes...Peggy will be posting photos of the Hard Right Productions staff on the website soon.  We're asking for short little bios to put with your photos.  If you don't supply one, we'll make one up.  (Just kidding).   But this will be a great team-building thing.

Thanks again, and God bless each of you unspeakably!

Juliana Shankle is really fitting into the part of Venny well.  We are learning tidbits about her that make her ever-more-suitable for the part.  We just have to make her a TAD more cranky.
