9 days in #nyc seeing people, screenings, plays, and still have one more day to go! Amazing energy and productive networking. Just confirms my instinct that I need to be here more often. #goals

Anybody else scrambling to finish a million things before the end of the year? My list includes: finish feature film look book, polish TV pilot, write first rough draft of new feature, and read a book (for new TV pilot adaptation). NO BIG DEAL. All is possible!!! 🤪

Was just at the grocery store buying a whole shopping bag of only dog-related things which I realized looked funny. "My dog sent me shopping," I told the the clerk, who laughed. Walked out realizing I would probably spend my last penny on my dog.

In an NYC cab about to enter Holland Tunnel wondering why I haven’t tweeted in months. I’ve wanted to-so much going on- but needed a break. Anyway, I’m back now. Not that anyone cares lol. Getting car sick yay

I have not seen the video either because just reading a description of its contents made me burst into tears. That was enough. Enough is enough in general.

So, I asked for what I want and didn't get the job, and this keeps happening. Am I sabotaging myself? Am I terrible at negotiating? Am I dodging bullets? Trying to learn the lesson here.

As a writer/filmmaker, I've received incredible feedback over the years on my work. Lately, I've been giving a lot of feedback to fellow writers and filmmakers who asked for it. I can't always and am about to be too busy to do so. But it feels good to give right now. #writerslife

Devastated by this one. Tina Turner was EVERYTHING!! Such a powerful woman, artist, survivor, ICON. So grateful I got a chance to see her perform live once in her "comeback" tour 82/83? She was a current of electricity the entire time. Amazing. RIP QUEEN TINA #tinaturnerforever

Watched Kurosawa's HIGH AND LOW (1963) on the big screen the other night. One of the things I love about older films is seeing how they've influenced filmmakers, like a moment in H&L that Spielberg copied in SCHINDLER'S LIST. Brilliant film. Kurosawa is in my top 10 directors.

Been watching and re-watching horror films lately. I can't stop thinking about The Wicker Man (1973). Truly one of the most original and disturbing films, with almost zero violence. I think its power comes from the specificity and realness, and its horrifying, haunting ending.
