Scott Keneally: Writer at Large


BEWARE OF VERY ROUGH FIRST DRAFTS. Don't expect anything too pretty or polished. I'm simply trying to squeeze out some rough ideas across the face of this blog. These musings may or may not find their way to the pages of my book. But as you will see, I'm taking certain liberties in voice and style that deviate from my published writings. I hope you enjoy, in spite of all of that.

C-listing at Sundance

I'm driving two cases of Roshambo wine to a Sundance Film Festival part in Utah. The hosts of the party are big fans of Naomi's winery and asked us to donate some cases. It sounds like the perfect opportunity to promote Roshambo to their 500 guests, including directors, actors, producers, writers, models and who have you. I could rub elbows with some celebrities. Maybe I'll slip Paris Hilton a pink Roshambo shirt, or snap a photo of The Rock throwing a Rock. It's no secret that Hollywood manufactures desire. So the sooner these A-listers jump on board with the brand, the sooner you'll find us on every wine list. And since I tend to have an easier time networking than Verizon, I'm poised to spread the Gospel of Roshambo. But there's a hitch.

No celebrities. Not even any C-listers. Sure, there are a couple of vaguely familiar people. Take the very buxom Dita De Leon, for instance. According to the glossy full-color 4x6 rack card she slips me, "You've seen her on Comedy Central's 'Showbiz Show' with David Spade as a Sexy Helper, HBO's 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' with Larry David as a Playboy Playmate and MTV's Tom Green Show as Tom's blind date." DD-list.

Later in the night, I hear rumors that Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz showed up. Sure, I think. That must have been right around the time when I was getting head from a Hilton.
