Had a breakthrough on a short story I've been working on for a while. It's part of a series based on my experiences from a few years ago when my father was in the hospital and on life support and all of the doctors were demanding we take him off, yet we refused and he is alive today because we fought to keep him that way. So it's not something easy for me to write about and I've been struggling for months to find my opening into the story. Found it today after many false starts.

Sent two of my short stories in to magazines today. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Well Hello There, My It's Been A Long Time

Yes, it has been awhile, my faithful readers, but it has been time well spent. Since September I've been working on writing promotional videos for a film I wrote in order to get it made, and busy with my day job as an improv performer. And on top of that, I am currently directing the play Crimes of the Heart, which opens in February, so haven't had much time to write anything else as of late,  but hope to remedy that soon, and update the blog more often.

It's been a busy few weeks as I've been working on some personal stuff and haven't had much time for writing or posting on here. Hopefully I'll have more time in the next few weeks and finally get back to the novel I've been working on.

There is some exciting news, however! The script I wrote I LOVE YOU BECAUSE based on the play 9 Months by Thomas J Kline, has been completed and we are currently seeking funding so that we can pay and feed the actors. We aren't asking for a lot of money, our total budget is less than $10,000, and we have some great perk packages in exchange for contributions, so please check out our campaign page

and watch the videos. We put a lot of work into the videos each week, so please take the time to watch them.

If you can't afford to contribute financially, there are other ways you help us out. For instance, you can help us spread the word by sharing the page with your friends. We've gotten several donations that way already!

We also did a video spoofing Clint Eastwood's talking to a chair incident which can be viewed here:

Democratic National Convention

Unless some chick takes her shirt off, nobody at the DNC is going to top Clint Eastwood talking to an empty chair.

Got some work done on a novel I'm working on. Not a whole lot and it's just editing & rewriting a false start, but it is work and hopefully this time I'll make it through to the end. Just haven't really felt like writing much lately and I'm not sure why. Burnt out maybe? But must carry on, see it through to the end.
