Coincidentally, I really disliked the Incredible True Story of Two Girls in Love even though I love Laurel Holloman in the L Word.

For my part, I've never seen Incredible True Story, but really dislike The L Word. Not because of Laurel Holloman, tho.

I loved the L Word. haha. I don't know why I didn't like The Incredibly True Story. I think it might've been because I thought both girls were unattractive. That's horrible, isn't it? I mean, the story line was good.

I think one of us must be the Bizarro version of the other--I thought most of the girls on The L Word were hot but the storylines were terrible.

I have seen a number of articles of late that really should just be titled "You Know What? The Kittens WERE Right After All!"

I wrote a lesbian rom-com film a few years ago that has got a positive ending and I had good feedback on it.

I wrote a lesbian melodrama a few years ago but it had a positive ending adn I had good feedback on mine. I really want to some day be able to film it and enter it into a festival.

If you have a good screenplay, send it to Amber. She said over at the Bitten by Books question/answer session the only reason she hasn't done a GLBT-themed film is she hasn't seen the right script.

What address would I send it to? Cause I only have it as a typed copy not a PDF.

Thing is, how do you define the right script, unless you do one where Willow and Tara are making out a lot. That could work
