JMS,

With all of the delays in Jeremiah Season 2, I got to wondering if it all made
you as nuts as it does us. But then, by the time we get to see something,
you've had it play out in your mind, written it, filmed it, etc. so maybe not.

In your mind, is the story told when you've finished writing it, when you've
finished filming (or revising in the case of print) or once the audience gets
it?

Thanks,
Jan

It's told once I've finished writing it.  It's experienced later, and my job
between the two points it to make sure it doesn't get screwed up.
