Cannon Fodder

Singer/Actress/Mover/Dreamer/Dork Christa Cannon!

So…in between packing and preparing, I’ve been watching Season II of True Blood. Damn, I’d love a role like the Queen!

I’ve been sitting here with this laptop for half an hour, and that’s the first thing I’ve thought of to say. :) Brain = Mush.

My flight to Newark  leaves in 12 hours. And around 8.30 I take off for Mumbai. After that, I know very little! I don’t know if I’ll be able to get wifi for the first few days, but I’m going to find a way to let Andy know all is well–I’ll have him update the Facebook fan page–so make sure you become a fan!

Exciting news these past couple of weeks! Well, exciting to me, anyway. ;) I finally got on IMDb!!!!!! Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this?! (Well, I could’ve had the resume service, but I wanted to wait till I had an actual credit. I don’t mind if you visit that page every single day…apparently that makes my “starmeter”  go up. This business can be a lot like high school in some ways. (Many ways.) Popularity still rules. I, however, will use that for good–unlike Megan Fox…but did I say that out loud?

I’ve sent in my info to a few New Mexico agents. I’m hoping to start getting into that market when I get back. (23 November, for those wanting to know! ;)    They’ve got at least 3 TV shows filming there, and several movies, as well.

Okay, I’m tired! And I’m much more interested in True Blood at the moment.

Thank you SOOOOOOOO much for all your good wishes and thoughts…and faith. :) I love you all!

    I am so freakin’ excited for you and can’t wait to hear all about it and of course see all the pics.

    Mom and I were just talking about this over the weekend and she was showing me some articles that she had found on “The Sixth River”. We’re both really looking forward to your adventure and are so happy and proud of you!!!

    Have fun, be well, and take some amazing pics for us!

    Say, is Andy still planning on going out there or was he not able to? I bet he’s going to miss you like crazy.

    Thanks, Jill!!!

    Yes–Andy’s coming out at the beginning of November. He’ll meet up with our friend who will be there at that time, and then he’ll head north to meet up with me. :)

    Did Juli find MORE articles? That’s awesome! I guess I’d better start looking for some and sharing, too, huh? Tee-hee!

    Love you, girlie. :)

    I’m so jealous! You’re going to be surrounded by so many neat things and so much delicious food. Make sure to take lots of pictures.

    Good luck with the filming!

Cannon Fodder is my blog about my Calling and the twists and turns on the road to making it into a full-fledged, full-time, bill-paying career! Occasionally, I’ll veer off-subject, but that’s what you get when you read my stream-of-conscious thoughts. ;)

A bit about me:

I know you’re dying to know my life story, so here ’tis : I grew up an Air Force Brat, living and travelling across the world. Though the scenery changed often, my dreams of being a singer and actress never did. You may have been lucky enough to catch me on my very first National Tour – - my family knew I was destined for stardom when I sang to strangers from my bathroom stall at every rest stop between California and Georgia. It was every bit as magical as you imagine. ;)

At the age of 12, I stepped out of the stall to become one of the first members of the Children’s Opera Group in its fledgling seasons with the Orlando Opera Company. I feel so privileged to have also been in productions in England, Belgium, Germany, India, and several U.S. States. These days, I work primarily in film, TV, web, and voiceovers with the help of my agents. Once I’m a Name, I’ll conquer Broadway as well as the film world!

Living a largely nomadic lifestyle throughout my career, I’ve enthusiastically met the challenges of breaking into new markets and production communities wherever I go. Just consider me Bob Dylan’s complete unknown rolling stone. (For now.) Other interests include afternoon naps, travel, dreaming, history, crazy socks, reading, sheepies, writing, swingin’ on stars, time traveling, the rain, and collecting as much useless information as I can in order to win every game of trivia. You can catch me, on rare occasions, re-creating the magic of my first tour – - cities and dates to be announced!

I promise this will be on the cover of PEOPLE when I win my first Oscar.
