Bestie got one, too with a slightly cooler phrase. Sorry it’s party backwards…

My test shirt came in the mail! And yes, I cropped out my double chin and YES it’s too big and all creased up but I was excited! leave me alone. Gosh.

I haven’t been terribly active with posts of my writing so I’ll share something for #SloppySaturday. It’s a random page in a novella I’ve been working on. Real rough draft, but it’s been surprising me so I just keep writing it. I call it “Eyeballs”. #Scriptsky #Writersky

Alright, sure. It’s Saturday night. I’m a young and vibrant member of society. I should be out with with friends. But no. Instead I spent 30min setting up this scene for a 1 min video and am scrambling for the next idea. You guys… I write speculative fiction and horror. Why am I making duck videos?

Ok, seriously though… whose turn is it to be watching me? I’m not sure how much longer I’ll survive out here left to my own devices.

“Do you have any idea what a bullet does to a mouse?”

Fell hard for this character as I was writing her. She’s vicious, desperate, and fights so hard.

An actual real life film set. Welcome to my final descent into madness. Let’s just say my ducks are not in a fucking row right now, friends.

You guys… I’ve been messing around with this sick picture of a grackle I took and… might make a t-shirt or something cause… #grackles #Austin

When your background actor looks directly into the camera.

A.K.A the reason I had to skedaddle out of my old place. Caught 33 min of footage of this little guy. Might cut it into a little short film. We’ll see.

I know it’s Friday but… #ThurdPageThursday

From my zombie script I haven’t had the stomach to finish. It got a little too dark, even for me.

#ShowAndTell Made for an art class my freshman year of college. I was 17 and full of Red Bull. To this day, I still think it’s one of the coolest pieces I’ve made. If you shine a black light on it, the landscape changes and there’s a hidden message (doesn’t work anymore because it’s 14 years old)

My Mama looks so sweet and innocent, but y’all weren’t there she was whipping back shots of Fireball and belting Gotye after a Farkle victory. Happy #Mother’sDay to all the mothers out there! Mine’s the cutest, though.

THE TURN - a current WIP about a mob family in a dystopia. The first few pages are a fun little misdirection.

An abandoned WIP I have no name for. Basically, a demon is bad at being a demon and falls in love with the grieving family he was assigned to torture.

You guys… look at this glamorous grackle I spotted today at work. He was trying his best to get on camera so I humored him.

#FirstPageFriday #ScriptSky First page from the rough draft of a now dead script. Might pull these characters into something new. We’ll see.

I’m still learning how to write child characters better, so this is a deleted scene in one of my WIPs where the adults use their 8 yr old daughter to get a drunk adult to drink water. There’s a reason I deleted it, but the scene itself was kind of cute.

Part of the dumbest fight I’ve ever written, but if you knew these characters you’d get it.

No context for this one. Just a little feature I’ve written. Might end up turning it into a show instead. Haven’t decided.

Title: Skully and Bones
Log Line: When a skeleton (Skully) in a museum comes to life searching for a “human body suit”, a SFX artists (bones) is the only thing standing in his way.

(Old and clunky, but a lot of fun. Might have to bring it back to life and do some editing.)

Keep trying to just get through this WIP without getting distracted by fun dialogue I’ll inevitably cut anyway, but there! I did WIP it Wednesday! #scriptsky

Ok Hulu… anyway we could rephrase this?

Just reminding everyone that the Brewers put up a fight and the Yankees are sloppy as hell on the field, relying on home runs to win. Which unfortunately works.
