- Y’all have no idea how much those of us that live in LA love this city.
- With a fluttering heart, I’m here to say I just took my first paid writing assignment. A horror script (what a surprise haha) off a really killer treatment I’ve been given to work from. I’m absolutely thrilled.
GIF - Hello. I am a person driving a car on TV or in a film and not looking at the road for a full ten seconds.
- Men. Do better. Just got a text from my teen daughter that got grabbed and harassed by a man in the park. A whole crowd of men stood and watched and no one helped. No. One. She screamed at him and fought him off herself. Do. Better.
- The feminine urge to get successful before people figure out how old you are.
- I am so happy to say that I have a manager. And I cried on the zoom. I guess he better get used to it. Probably gonna cry on every zoom we have forever knowing me.
GIF - WHY IS IT THE LAST 30 PAGES OF A SCRIPT ARE PURE TORTURE TO WRITE?EVERY TIME?
- “I don’t know why people expect art to make sense. They accept the fact that life doesn’t make sense.” — David Lynch
GIF - Okay I am now free to roam Twitter with my previously redacted good news. HOMESTEAD is a quarterfinalist! Thank you @TheAcademy ! And y’all don’t need to congratulate me again we done did this already lol
- Just fyi Im not repped anymore. Tooootally back on the market. Award winning horror feature writer willing and able to do assignment work. Deep character work, atmospheric, weird, f*cked up hallucinogenic folk horror female protag specs. HELLO THERE. Is it me you’re looking for?
GIF - Reminder: if someone gives you notes that you asked for - and you don’t like them - the response is “Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate it. “
- Do you ever have those days where you’re like “Fuck it, Im gonna take a Greyhound Bus to Vermont, rent an old house, get a job at the corner store, and walk in the woods for the rest of my life” And you’re afraid you might not be able to stop yourself from actually doing it?
