Awards Season….
BAFTAs tomorrow (Slingshot’s being represented by Rachel in a slinky dress), Oscar’s next week (see you at the Soho House Party) but the most important awards of all are the LA Weekly’s 28th Annual Theatre Awards…
Why? OK, I am a little biased, cause DIRK, the little play I co-adapted with my pal James Goss some years ago, has been nominated not once, but 3 times… (including for best Adaptation - its based on the Douglas Adams’ novel Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency which obsessed me for so long that the only way I could get it out of my system was to make it my own…)

Congratulations Arvind!
I saw the play — it was magnificent.
I talked to Scot Burklin (Dirk of course) afterwards, and apparently, you had flown in to see it the night before, and I missed being able to meet you by one day! I have been trying to contact you, I am an author/illustrator, and I have been trying to get the rights and stuff needed to produce an official ‘’Dirk Gently” graphic novel for a couple years. I would love to get ahold of you, show you some of my sample art and discuss tactics.
