January 30, 1989
[In L.A.] Lunch with Larry Turman. He was in a good mood, but it sounds like being a film producer has been frustrating for him lately. He asked me if I was still with Leading Artists. I wonder if they’ve dumped me and I just don’t know it?
Dinner with Virginia. “You’ve changed!” she said immediately. “It’s like you’ve grown up!”
I mentioned that Leading Artists hasn’t contacted me about renewing our representation agreement. She said that’s probably their way of tactfully waiting to see if I write anything new.
She still loves Birthstone. “Are you kidding?” she said. “It was, what, two years ago? And I still remember the plot in, like, this incredible detail. It’s a great script. I can’t believe it hasn’t gotten made.”

As I keep reading about Birthstone there appears many questions: what was this film about? And what are your thoughts on it now?
