Virginia called me at work to say that Curtis Hanson (writer/director of The Bedroom Window) had read the script and wants to talk to me about it. I called him at home.

“I’ve been reading a lot of thrillers lately,” he said, “obviously, because of Bedroom Window. Most of them are boring and bad. Yours was interesting and unusual. I had some ideas on how you might improve it.”  We talked for an hour.

Don Daglow, who just came over from Electronic Arts, wants Broderbund to do Karateka II. We sat in his office and chatted while Ed Badasov sat there, eyes darting nervously back and forth between us. Don offered a 3% royalty. They both wanted me to say yes. I didn’t.
