When my celebrity friend died, I wasn’t prepared for the inability to properly grieve because the death was posted everywhere and constantly talked about. I can’t imagine how much worse it is for their families.
This is the only picture I have from the summer I worked with RJ Mitte. I was the script supervisor and he and I often sat together between setups. He spent weeks looking at pictures of houses with me as I prepared to buy my house and talked me out of many bad decisions.
Just got hit with this awesome idea for a holiday romance movie. I really want a new front door, so that’s my current motivation to get it done.
The most annoying part about selling a few screenplays is telling my family that I don’t have any money left because:
A) I wasn’t paid some six figure sums.
B) I don’t have the management and representation to fight for six figure sums.
C) I have bills, and a mortgage
This take is probably gonna get me dragged, but…whatever.
People posting about their shoppers getting an item wrong have become more annoying than the mistakes themselves. If getting the exact item on the first try matters that much, go to the store and buy it yourself.
I said separated, but I meant stolen. She was stolen from her parents for the sake of forced assimilation.
This guy that was a few years older than me in high school is calling black people “animals” meanwhile he’s fresh out of prison for robbing a bank with a gun. 😂
Just locked down a meeting with another producer. She’s interested in producing a project for me to direct and she’s interested in directing one of my short screenplays.
I think this next step of my journey was the right decision.
Producer acquaintance heard about a screenplay I wrote and she wants to produce it. I had to politely decline because for the first time ever I think a project I have is too big for her.
I hope I don’t end up kicking myself over this.
I’m probably gonna kick myself over this.
I wrote a screenplay. I think it’s the best one I’ve ever written. It also landed me in therapy.
Every week I talk to my therapist about how guilty I feel for writing such a character.
It’s been a week today since I got fired from a movie and told I would never work again.
I don’t know why people keep using that phrase. Especially since I booked a gig working with a few popular players from the WNBA.
Getting fired from a movie where the script was written using AI was the push I needed to start directing my own work. I’ve got two shorts ready to go.
Now I gotta wiggle my big toe.
We’re filming a movie on the west side of Chicago across the street from an old folks home. These old folks be outside EVERYDAY in their wheelchairs, scooters, etc listening to music, smoking and having an all around good time.
Love to see it.
Working on a Christmas movie screenplay for a local producer. Friend asked me what my motivation is for finishing this one. And…I just really want a new front door for my house before next winter.
I got high as hell before watching Scary Movie. I left the movie wanting to write a doctoral dissertation about the entire movie. I feel like the whole movie was years worth of conversations that @MarlonWayans @keeneniwayans @shawn_wayans and rest have had over years.
