Hi there! I'm Janet. I've been a television, video and promotional writer since 1988. I am also a former official wild goose chaser, having worked with my Border Collies to send away Canada Geese, thus keeping parks “feces” free. I am an animal lover; my hobby is dog trick training. Currently my short film “House Care”, which features my pooches, is on tour with the Bow Wow Film Festival. (We are featured in their trailer at: bowwowfilmfest.com) I am a screenwriter and also have started weekly uploads on my new YouTube channel; inspired by an awesome Stage 32 course, called “Zero to Hero” with Michael Wormser. I highly recommend this class! All the courses I've taken here at Stage 32 have been top notch! If you like dogs, hokey puppetry, and eccentric dog lady humour, please feel free to subscribe! I'm at https://www.youtube.com/user/janlaidlaw/ I’d be interested in connecting with anyone else here who is using YouTube as a means to audience/viewer building. I hope to be an active participant in the Stage 32 community.

Being in the arts one better be a wild goose chaser and have a pretty good sense of humor about it because, Janet, I am chasing them wild gooses all over the globe for some meaningful substance if you know what I'm saying? Thank you for inspiring me to keep going on the hunt for the gold wild goose connections. For all those hunters who never give up but occasionally surrender which in my opinion is a form of humility which strengthens our instincts.
Thanks Mark, and so true! Once a wild goose chaser, always a wild goose chaser!
Introducing myself again since I still consider myself a relative newbie on Stage 32. Would still love to connect with other YouTubers if anyone here is involved in content development, web series or is growing their YouTube channel. Also, I'm happy to announce that child actress Brookelyn Chalmers received a Joey Awards nomination as "BEST ACTRESS IN A WEB BASED SERIES AGE 5-12 YEARS"! (http://www.joeyawards.com/2015nominations.html) This is for her role in "Amazing Face Cream" in my Wild Goose Chases YouTube webseries. http://tinyurl.com/nvo4uur Hope to connect with more of you! I'm very impressed with Stage 32 and all the amazing resources here!

Watched one of your You Tube videos and loved your creativity and puppet work! Mark
Thanks Mark! My puppet work has improved lately. (It's a lot harder than you'd think to operate 2 puppets at the same time! :) ) I have so much fun building my YouTube channel and incorporating many parts of my life into it. I am really excited about some of the videos/films I'll be uploading in the future. It keeps me very challenged and is a great outlet for my ideas. Glad you enjoyed it.
