Yes I read blogs. Hundreds of them. I have to keep up on the Hollywood scene and can’t always get the direct word of mouth stuff.

One of the blogs I regularly check out - That Other Blog reported today that HBO’s Entourage next season, which would normally be starting now, pushed back until next September.

Even more disturbing, the season might be short one or more episodes (12 instead of 14).

Why? The fallout from the writers strike has prevented show creator (and chief writer) Doug Ellin from having all the episodes ready for shooting.

When interviewed about Entourage Doug Ellin replied “I’m writing as fast as I can” to get to the 14 episodes.

Thank goodness I have this Rant Section of my blog to help be blow off some steam. After all, in Japan where the workers literally drop dead from overwork and stress - I need something to help me release frustrations because my treadmill (which helps but is not always available for me when I’m at Starbucks) doesn’t fit in my small car.

The cause of my current rant? It happened again. My work was published without credit to me. No, I can’t say what publication because that would be so rude and of course my editor would hate me forever.

But I feel used and abused and totally picked on. Yes, I’m a full grown adult CEO who is supposed to roll with the punches and I roll so much that I often have lint all over my suit coats. BUT mess with my creativity and I crumble like the top of an Oreo cookie that isn’t perfectly lifted off the icing.
