I'm very much involved as the creative producer of the show, and when they shoot in New Orleans, I will be on the set a lot, trying very hard to see that they get the voices right, and maintain an ambiance that I can be proud of. We want the show to reveal Irish New Orleans, really immigrant New Orleans, Italian New Orleans a totally different image from the French Quarter and the Creoles and Bourbon Street. They hired me to do it, they paid me to do it, but then they put it on the shelf, and as far as I know, it's not going to be produced. So that was discouraging enough for me to get out of script writing in general. I don't belong in script writing, I like to really own what I write, and I like to publish what I write.
Script writing is very frustrating.
