A Touch of Grey- Writer/Producer
💙💙💙
A Series about that group of friends you've been watching for years, but didn't know it. In the flavor of John Hughes, A Touch of Grey is a story of a group of friends trying their best to manager life in their 50's...And not doing well.

I have my first development meeting of my bio series I've been working on for 5 years. It's time, not only to build this beautiful team of misfits, but to make YOU, you 50+ types feel like we might not have completely got there, but it's ok...We're still learning.

Amazing news! A New York Christmas Story was just selected by San Diego Movie Awards via FilmFreeway.com!

I know I'm pushing my series, A Touch of Grey, but let's not forgot, My little Christmas Love Story is out in the world too!!!

It’s donation day and there’s a need for blood. Even MAGA folks are welcome! If you’re a trump supporter, you’ve already proven you can put up with a little prick!

Amazing news! Never Break The Chain or The Effects of Rumours On Our Lives was just selected by Asian Independent Film Festival via FilmFreeway.com!

Where this and it's other wins do not impress producers or Lit Managers, being successful in a world others make that decision, this makes ME happy.

I just submitted "Never Break The Chain or The Effects of Rumours On Our Lives" to Cambridge Script Festival via FilmFreeway.com!

Might be a Limited Series Soon, but let's get a few more reads in first.

Just submitted "A New York Christmas Story" to 9th PORTUGAL INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL, Kosice International Film Festival, San Diego Movie Awards, and Montelupo Fiorentino International Independent Film Festival via FilmFreeway.com!
So, I think it's ready for others to read.
Producers?

The drive to get it made HAS to outweigh the disappointments. There are a lot of disappointments, but if you have that ONE yes...Even if is a tall mountain, start climbing.

It's a great story...A story about us, Gen X...

Putting the final touches on my updated pitch deck for Never Break The Chain, but I think this page is ready. Come to Wilmington, NC...We have a beach, we have INCREDIBLE food and we have some of the hardest working filmmakers in the business. 🎬

Busy day submitting to festivals. I'm not a big player, I just wanna tell stories. Home runs are for the big boys. Looking for a few doubles.

I get it... When it comes to Indie film, at least in my observation, Shock value is an important way to gather an audience. Can't help but think, I'll always go against that. I like the happy stories. I want to tell stories of the human experience. Not fluff, but happy. I don't think fun sucks.

Getting that first manager to take a chance…Man! For an introvert who has solid stories(And I do) to just pick up the phone or send an email, man I’m working on it, but it ain’t easy. Shot for the manager of the dream director for the “John Hughes” style film today. Come on good juju.

In case you missed it, I joined the Gemstones this Season in Episode 2. Get a chance, stop on over. Thanks to Danny McBride and Jody Hill for the opportunity! Lots of fun around these folks.

We've been looking too hard at European comparisons. Here are the facts...In my opinion. Trump is a puppet. The people around him are nothing more than the American version of the Khmer Rouge and this is a photo of the new Pol Pot...The fact the killings haven't started, well, RFK Jr is in place.

Ah, to take a chance on a no name. They say the 2nd one is easier. It ain't. Oh well. It's a semi-bio pic. It's incredible how many different opinions there are. "It should be this" "It should be that". Well, it's this, & it's what the world needs. A smile. I offer a smile.
