As I start to get creative again, weird things happen. Without exception, as I embark on the making of a movie, ancillary side effects occur. When I first made my first “shorts”, I eventually got fired from my job. Today, I work in the same industry, so the two things Read more…
I’m a huge Joss Whedon fan. After recently getting the DVD of DR. HORRIBLE’S SING ALONG BLOG, I finally discovered the web series THE GUTHE GUILD written and starring Felicia Day. For their first “season” (albeit 10 3-5 minute long webisodes) they primarily existed on PayPal donations… which I thought Read more…

If realism will destroy your enjoyment of a fictional show, then this Read more…
Today, I voted. Seemingly this would be an innocuous feat, but I’m 36 years old and I have never voted before. In my youth, I vowed never to vote as a stand against several things; I hate the two party system which denigrates the entire concept of “democracy” as to Read more…
