Family Planning and Other Funny Stories was born out of a conversation that I had with my oldest daughter… she told me that I should “date…date EVERYONE.” I thought of all the ways this request could be taken way too far and go completely sideways. A few weekends later I had completed several good drafts of the screenplay and thought the story was funny enough to be a TV pilot. A little over a year later we shot Family Planning and Other Funny Stories. We just completed filming the pilot over the Easter weekend.

As Family Planning goes to editing, our next step will be to plan what festivals we’ll be entering. We do hope to sell this pilot to a network. If we don’t manage to pull that off, we’ll make an amazingly, hilarious web series. Either way, it’s going to be a fun ride!

We’ll be building our web page and Facebook page shortly! For further info. and updates please contact me at [email protected]                                                                                       By Sue Mattson
