I've been a bit lax with the old website lately… sorry about that. I've been traveling a lot – then there was Spring Break – whee! Kinda busy…
But here I am, back with an update!
Lord of the Beans is now in production up in Canada, with Mike directing. I was hoping to be able to post some concept art and stuff, but haven't been able to get any out of Big Idea yet. I think it's going to be pretty darn cool. If you're at the Christian Booksellers convention this July in Denver, you may get a chance to be one of the first people to see Lord of the Beans (assuming it's finished in time!) at the Big Idea event. Stay tuned. I've also started working on my veggie film for 2006, but I can't tell you anything about that one yet. Top secret.
My two children's books, “47 Beavers on the Big Blue Sea” and “Sidney & Norman” are ready to be pitched to publishers. I have no idea when they'll be coming out, but I'll keep you posted.
Speaking and stuff: I had the privilege last month of speaking at the Willowcreek children's pastors conference and at Yale Divinity School. It was an interesting contrast going from 20-30 academics at Yale who were marginally aware of VeggieTales to 3500 children's pastors at Willowcreek who were all VeggieTales fanatics! Both experiences were very fun, though. In May I'll be at Seattle Pacific University, then at the Christian Comedians Conference (yes, there is one of those!) in June and at the International Christians in Visual Media conference and the aforementioned CBA Convention in July. Maybe I'll see you somewhere along the way…

Hi Phil,
It was fun to see you in Dallas the other night. ITs been a long time. I would love to catch up with you and Mike and your families. Have a great day. Gretchen
Hi, Mr. Phil how are you doing today. I just finished watching you on life today. And I could use some- one to guide me in getting my new book series published. I don’t have much experience in writting or in business matters like this. My books are for children 1to 12. I’ll let you be the judge! I have about seven of them. I have 4 kids, and they are the reason for the books. Then God also gave me the titles and charecter. Please if your not to busy, help. Thanks.
