Not someone texting me about my crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo. I still need to know how they got my number.

Anyway, crowdfunding for a mystery psychological thriller that shines light on disability, mental health, and chronic and invisible illness. Support!

Read a couple of scripts by a well-known pro writer

I've been going through my "Scripts to read" folder, catching up on long overdue reads

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

A great talk w/author @saritzadok.bsky.social (THE CORRECTION, VOL 1) on @podcastcwl.bsky.social about writing philosophical sci-fi, layering on top of layering, applying a Canterbury Tales-esque structure, and seeking A-ha! moments

A break in the rain

Watched the latest cut of my short film SHECKY

Looks AMAZING!!

The man who told reporters it’s time to move on from the Epstein files won’t shut up about the 2020 election.
