Lisa, the convenor of Cinekink, has been live tweeting the awards as they happen.<\/p>\n<p>So imagine my thrill when I read that <em>Dear Jiz<\/em> has been jointly awarded Best Short at this year&#8217;s festival (the other winner is <em>Trains<\/em> by <a href=\"http:\/\/pillowbookproductions.com\/\">Paul Deeb<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\"><p>CineKink Best Short to DEAR JIZ directed by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/msnaughty\">@msnaughty<\/a> &#8230; tied with TRAINS by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pauldeeb\">@Pauldeeb<\/a>! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23oscars&amp;src=hash\">#oscars<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23ckawards&amp;src=hash\">#ckawards<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CineKink (@CineKink) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CineKink\/statuses\/440326186032701440\">March 3, 2014<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was really quite stunned to read it&#8230; and then I was jumping up and down happily. This is the first award that I&#8217;ve received from competition in a major film festival so I feel really validated by it.<\/p>\n<p>If this were the Oscars I&#8217;d have tripped over my sparkly gown walked up the steps to the podium and I&#8217;d probably be an emotional mix of tears and laughter. If I had an acceptance speech, the biggest thanks would go to Jiz Lee, first and foremost, for their amazing performance, their willingness to take a risk and their general open-hearted goodness. Not to mention sexiness. To quote from the film, they&#8217;re kind of my superhero.<\/p>\n<p>I would also thank Jiz Lee&#8217;s fans, whose letters and emails make up the script of the film. And of course my lovely spouse Luke for his work behind the camera. His first response was: &#8220;It was the iPhone in the ziploc bag that did it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to Lisa and Cinekink for screening my films over the past few years. It&#8217;s so great to have a space for sex-positive filmmakers to screen their work.<\/p>\n<p>I was attempting to have an alcohol-free week but I think I&#8217;ll be needing to celebrate a little bit tonight.<\/p>\n<p>You can find <em>Dear Jiz<\/em> at Bright Desire.
