Thanks for the Shoutout, CEM!
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...
Continue readingThree Puny Acres: draft in progress
A quick post just because I’m excited about this new project. I just got done with a writing workshop, working on a new play that I’m currently calling THREE PUNY ACRES (but was originally titled THE LANDOWNERS). It’s a satire about land and ownership and acres and politics and money and… puniness. I’m hoping...

This post I wrote in 2018 (Running on a bell curve) is the most frequently-visited on my entire site, according to page analytics. Apparently the world cares more about exercise theories than my artistic meanderings. Sheesh. And I’d like to give an update on it, emerging from the pessimism I was in at the...

I’m working on a new monologue/performance piece about my sister called A FRIENDLY LADY. Not 100% sure it’s working or if I have the structure right, but I’ll be performing an early version of it for one night only on Wednesday, September 24 as part of ScriptWorks Solos at Hyde Park Theatre at 8pm....

I wish I’d known in advance this photo was going to be taken. This is proof (I guess) that we were at Cannes last month. Jason and I decided to go see a screening one morning and ended up here, taking impromptu photos of each other. If I’d know we were going to do...

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...
