Been working with this Misfits crew for the last 6 weeks or so to see if standup comedy is something I wanna try my hand at on a more regular basis. We’ve got this initial show in Austin on Sunday during SXSW. Thanks to Jerry and Camille for the encouragement. Interested to see where...

ScriptWorks Forever!
ScriptWorks just had their best Amplify Austin year to date. I take particular pride in this because I organized and ran the whole operation with a brand new member profile and “6-line masterpiece” every 90 minutes over a 24-hour period. At the time of this writing, we were agonizingly close to our fundraising goal....

Oh hey, I was happy to see myself featured in the CEM fall newsletter. I mean it was only on page 2, but still. A nice reminder that I’m doing stuff from time to time. I hope to have some more Cinnamon Path news soon. But for now, you can look at the 2nd...

This is still kinda nuts to me. Like it wasn’t even something on my bucket list. But now I’m gonna be intermingling with all the cool people, I guess. I have to practice how not to be too “aw shucks” about everything. I’ve even got invitations to two galas already. Have I even ever...

Million the Film
I’m so excited that the crew that got A Million More to Go onstage in Austin has decided to turn it into a feature-length independent film. I went back and forth a few times with the director, turning the playscript into a screenplay, and they started filming last week about an hour outside of...

As I continue to look through old shelves and cupboards in the house I grew up in, I’m finding occasional curiosities and treasures, piecing together some old family history. This photo popped up out of nowhere and seemed stunning to me. This is my parents about 7 years before I was born. My dad...
