Autumn 5:55 PM, October 24, 2006
It's been a busy and entertaining fall for me, and it's only October!
Right now I'm looking out my office window at a steady rain and trees
just starting to turn. As much as I love spring and summer, I can't
resist the dramatic colors of autumn. We haven't had a hard frost yet,
so I've still got impatiens blooming away, but I think they're time's
nearly up for this year.
Last month I spent a couple of days in Calgary on the set where the
Lifetime movie adaptation of my book Montana Sky was being shot. What
a gorgeous spot. I'm thrilled that my Mercy Ranch will be ringed by
the magestic, snow-laced Rockies. The first day we were there, the
mountains stood against a pure blue sky, as if they'd been etched on
them. Besides the scenery, which was impressive enough, I got a
first-hand look at how much work and creativity go into the making of
a movie. It's a small city behind the scenes--a village of trailers,
trucks, equipment, people. Such fun for me to see how much everyone
enjoyed the work, how dedicated they were to making the film. Icing on
the cake was meeting the crew, and the cast. Hanging out with John
Corbett was some pretty delicious icing! It was a huge bonus to meet
the legendary Diane Ladd, to talk with the delightful Ashley Williams
(who has the best and most infectious laugh), to watch Charlotte Ross
break out in an impromptu and very impressive tap dance between takes.
I honestly couldn't have enjoyed myself more, or been more impressed
with everyone involved in the film.
As yet another bonus, I'll have cameos in all four Lifetime Movies. We
shot my cameo for Montana Sky live, and shot green screen scenes for
Carolina Moon, Blue Smoke and Angels Fall. Costumes, directors,
lights, staging! What a hoot! I wish I could describe them for you,
but I can't give any hints. We plan to hold a Find Nora sweepstakes
for the movies, so be sure to watch Lifetime every Monday in
February--and see if you can spot me.
