Stuck in a rut? Ideas lodged in the mud with the coffee maker you hurdled over the balcony last week because it wouldn’t work any longer? Get your ass outside. I’ve joined a production to help me in my quest to find inspiration. It’s good to be a part of The Haircut, and you can […]
Read More ->This little entry will entail what it’s like to have your apartment building purchased. So far, it’s been pretty humiliating.

Read More ->I’ve decided to go forth and produce/direct a short that was relinquished back to me from a busy production company that bought it but couldn’t schedule in a time to film my little baby. I now feel this short will benefit greatly as an animated piece rather than shot due to complications like finding a […]

The outcome of the interview is still up in the air and before someone screams brown-noser, I debated for a bit on whether to publish […]
Read More ->Over a year ago I helped make a short film that I wrote as a favor to a film student. My involvement was more than I had planned but ironically left me with little input. And as it should be, right? The writer should stand back and watch the magic, not make it. HAH! Days […]

Read More ->Whether you ingest it via coffee, tea or swill those heart attacks in a bottle (uber caffeinated sodas), there’s one thing you can say for a lot of writers: The words don’t flow until the machine percolates. I have several favorite mugs, and each one serves a special purpose when I’m writing and this section […]
