If the coffee cup ain't this big... I'll still want it, but it's going to take a few refills to get me through the day.
Maybe it'll fuel a writing frenzy later. A girl can dream anyway.

Excited to be back for another Broadleaf Writers Conference!
Some of my favorite people are here. Can't wait to meet new favorite people.
I've been a writer all my life, but my journey as an author and filmmaker started at a Broadleaf conference three years ago.

Have another awkward bathroom selfie. As a treat. 🤣
Can I get some crossed fingers and well wishes? 🤞
Award ceremony for Cobb International Film Festival is this evening. I'm not expecting anything, but it'd be fantastic if we earned a little something with And the Moon Sees Me.

I'm at the Strand in Marietta, GA for the Cobb International Film Festival.
Our short film, And the Moon Sees Me, will be screened later.
It's based on an original short story I wrote.
I figured it was a good time to do my first bathroom selfie.
Bask in the awkward.

Last night, I went to my very first storytelling event put on by The Moth, but it definitely won't be my last.
Eventually, I'm going to throw my hat in and see if I get a chance to tell a story.

When you thought you were recording a video for work
... but you accidentally take a selfie instead
... and it looks both good and somehow a little angry

I don't often Zodiac, but when I do, it's extra awesome with cats and ice cream.

I was invited to deliver a performance story at the Reinhardt University summer residency program.
We also screened And the Moon Sees Me, the short film based on a performance story.
Plus was the first time my fam saw me perform. 😁
Wonderful time! Appreciated the opportunity!

Perks of my job: sometimes I can go by Huck's in Blue Ridge and grab a Birch Beer.
I'm not a big soda drinker, but I absolutely love these.

Fresh off the presses: My new tattoo.
I promised myself when I signed my first publishing contract, I'd get this one.
I created the concept, my niece designed it, and my friend James Tuck did the ink.
It'll need a touchup. There are a lot of details.

Join me in congratulating Director, Director of Photography, and film editor Timothy Lee Glover and the folks that worked so hard to make And the Moon Sees Me such a visually stunning short film.
I'm proud my story inspired this work and to have acted in it.
