Hi! My Battlestar ep is NOT the one airing tomorrow night, despite what I may have said earlier, and in fact still may be saying elsewhere on this page. Please watch tomorrow, of course, but be aware that my ep will be airing NEXT week, on Feb 25.

And because I hate posting entries without any useful tips in them, here’s a useful tip: you know how I’ve complained before about the “dual dialog” function in Final Draft? Well, it’s even worse than I thought. If you’re in revision mode and you make a change in any of your side-by-side dialog, it will stay marked as revised even after you select “clear revisions.” You have to un-dual it, then clear it, then re-dual it again. This actually cost me time recently. Let my pain be your warning.

Lunch: the Chile Pasilla plate at Poquito Mas. You better be hungry — this turned out to be a truckload of food. Seriously, it almost didn’t fit on one tray.

CORRECTION: It is not, of course, “my” Battlestar. It is “our” Battlestar, co-written with my friend and colleague the brilliant Anne Cofell Saunders!
