~ How's it going? ~

...is a regular question I get when chatting to folk wanting to know the progress of The Corrie Campaign.

Well, as Lord Lloyd Webber and Richard Stilgoe said in that musical, Starlight Express: There's a Light at the End of the Tunnel. Not really but after a drought of responses, I've had a couple of lovely messages. The first one is my favourite yet because it refers to the fact that I do three emails a day. Without having found my blog, there's no way that this director could know my daily routine from what I said in my email alone. Therefore, curiosity got the better of her. BIG TICK!

Anyway here are those heart warming responses:





Hi Nick. Thanks for your email. I really admire your 3 emails a day plan and hope it's bringing you lots of meetings. I'm not directing at the moment as I have a lot of writing projects on, so won't be casting in the near future. I've watched your showreel and will keep you in mind down the line when I get back to directing. Very good luck with your enterprising approach.  Best wishes, XXX

Thanks for your message, Nick

I'm all casted for the shows I'm doing until April but I'll certainly keep you in mind for anything after that.

Very best

Identities have been protected but I do like the use of "casted."  I realise there's probably a heavy dose of lip service in these messages but I really appreciate their desire to respond.
