TESTIMONIAL

"FYI Leo.. My screenplay, Ghost Net Kingdom, made finalist.... I will get a small award at that festival in April.
In many ways, this is a direct result of your efforts: Screenplay In a Day and the film maker's event at the Aloha Theatre, not to mention many excellent films that I can invite attractive, highly intelligent, women to."
Much Mahalos,
Bill M
