Oh my gosh. Feeling this so hard. I thought about staying up late today too, but for my health opted to head to bed early.

I had a tiny breakthrough in my WIP today that really gave me a dopamine hit and helped me feel like I'm on the right path with this story.
That's it.
Just wanted to share with people who get it. 😊

Thank you so much, Jim! I hope it screens in NYC soon!

That feature doc just premiered at its first festival and won the jury and audience awards!! 🥳🥳🥳

I've been working on a feature doc for the last 7 weeks (that I can't talk about yet) and yesterday was the last day for a while. 😱
I am so sad to leave this world and the people in it! 😢
All my fingers and toes are crossed that this one finds its audience and people get to see it! 🤞🏽

Hey friendos. I hate to do this but because of a certain unscrupulous individual, I'm in danger of losing my home. (It's in the lawyer's hands now) Check out the video below or contact me if you can help out, have work for me or don't mind helping a friend with a loan. Thanks.

Forgot to post! Delighted to have my name in the credits on the Magnolia Network show, IN WITH THE OLD, produced by York & Wilder! I was happy to serve as field producer on this ep. Check it out if you love restoration, preservation, and gorgeous homes!
