Sneaky Facts
I teased four future novels within Between Takes. Any guesses whose stories they'll be? (Hint - Only one of them was for Shaun's friends).
I fed some of my production management woos into Mona's introduction to the world of TV and Film.
Between Takes now has TWO bonus scenes. Well, the second is more of a novelette than a scene, but same thing. I'm currently figuring out where to put that scene.
