Well, it seems that the money people don't trust me with a feature, but I think that I'm more than proven enough to make a real short. The Plaything, The Day The Flat Burned Down. Those are viable, though I'm not precisely sure how much the mould effect and the house burning down would cost. Dirty Creatures is one that I would love to do, but it really should be motion capture, unless stop motion is viable for that. Regarding trans-positive content which comes from a Te Ao Māori lens, there's quite a plethora, so it's not like I add much. GURL, Rūrangi and now I get to say no. I'm writing a book. It's plain that I'm writing a book. It is entirely defensible to state that I disliked the notes, that I wasn't satisfied with my draft, and that the book really has transformed the underlying IP in such a way to solidify my claims. You can no longer say 'you have to' ... there is no verbal or written contract. I've published very fair and clear cease-and-desist letters. - Revenge of the Veggies is another cartoon idea. So, how about giving me a real go?
