Taking a Break to prepare The Wrap News; Check back in January

Dear Readers,

This blog will go semi-silent for the next several weeks, while we prepare the launch of The Wrap News at www.thewrapnews.com, a new news and information platform covering entertainment and media. The Wrap will feature original and aggregated content. We have already launched a daily email newsletter, called First Take, read by entertainment industry insiders. You can sign up to receive it at thewrapnews.com.

The Wrap is scheduled for a January launch. This blog, Waxword, will become part of that new enterprise.

I will be using this blog for announcements, and reserve the right to weigh in if there's major news, such as - save us, please -- another strike.
