My Hollywood debut?

My 15 seconds of fame may be coming up.

"Burnt Chocolate Water," which I wrote about last September, will screen May 18-24 @ the Hollywood Theater in Northeast. Whether my ugly mug winds up on the big screen or on the cutting room floor, I suspect it should be a good show.

In another of life's little quirks, the trailer and the promotional postcards going around show that filmmaker Jeff Grinta managed to hook up with Shannon Wheeler, who appears to at least make one very appropriate cameo in the project.

Wheeler created the Too Much Coffee Man comic. Turns out he lives in Portland now and works with Dark Horse. I used to read his work for a time in college. Haven't seen any of his stuff in years, but it used to be well worth the trouble of tracking down a copy. If you get a chance, check them out -- both the movie and the comic.
