Hi everyone,I¹m on the hunt... Again.My book, Playing With Matches: Misadventures in Dating, is the inspirationfor a TV documentary series by the same name on dating. The producer, DonnaLeon, and I are working with a major Canadian network to develop the seriesand we¹re looking for people with great dating stories we could interviewfor the show. Let me assure you that the show is a documentary. We are NOT shooting areality dating show. Nor are we setting people up on dates.We¹re interviewing people about dating and we want to touch on a number ofdifferent themes. We¹re looking for daters (of any age, sex or orientation) who haveinteresting stories:*in a profession that might turn people off (male gynecologist, funeraldirector, female boxer, etc)*in a location that prohibits easy dating (small towns or villages, LasVegas where people go to get married or get lucky, large centres where itshould be easier but isn¹t)*in a situation where potential mates might balk (have a child, live withparents, roommates with ex, etc)*or just with wonderful stories: for example, trying to get a date online,for the prom or even someone with strict dating rules.If everything goes well, we would start shooting this summer. This is notlimited to Canada, either. We're looking for people in the U.S., London,Paris and Canada.We¹re working to an April 14th deadline for getting our list of possible(and interested) daters.Please pass this on to any and all people you think might be interested!Also, feel free to call me for more details.All the best,Amy-- Amy
