"Last night I started reading Escape From Xatala. It was midnight and I thought I'd just read a bit before going to bed. I ended up finishing it at 2 am. What a fabulous writer you are, I absolutely love it. You need to get this script out into the world. This will be a breakout movie for a young actor. Gosh I love love your writing and this script."
