Recap: The Animation Writers Caucus Annual Reception

Last night was the WGAw's Animation Writer's Caucus Annual Reception. Here's the recap.

No chocolate fountain.

I repeat, NO CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN. Oh sure, there was a Q&A with WGA president Patric Verrone and Director of Organizing Jeff Hermanson, along with brownies so rich that they vote Republican - but there was no chocolate fountain.

Despite the lack of flowing melted chocolate, the event was a great chance to catch up with animation writers, some of whom I'll name drop here - Amy Wolfram, Andrew Robinson, Bob Skir, Brooks Wachtel, Catherine Lieuwen, Charlotte Fullerton, Craig Miller, Dean Stefan, Doug Molitor, Dwayne McDuffie, Francis Moss, Gordon Bressack, Jack Monaco, Joelle Sellner, Larry Caroll, Larry Ditillo, Len Wein, Mark Evanier, Marty Isenberg, Marv Wolfman, Matt Wayne, Melody Fox, Michael Ryan, Nicole Dubuc, Stan Berkowitz, Steve Melching, Steven Goldman.

One holiday party down - a few more to go...

Watch, there'll be a chocolate fountain on Friday just to spite the WGA. :D

Forget residuals, minimums, pension/health. We need chocolate! Smooth melty chocolate of the darkest, richest kind!

And I will reluctantly share 10% of my chocolate with my agents...

Doh! Eugene beat me to the 10%/agent joke. ;)

That's what I get for being away from my computer for even a second...
