In the Trenches—Day 365 Year 2:  ONE MORE DAY

Day 365 Year 2:  I love starting a new year!  It’s exciting and full of endless possibilities.  It hasn’t been marred by anything yet.  There’s been no failures, no disappointments, no bad news.  There’s been no successes, no good news, no triumphs.  Nothing to live down or up to.  The year is a blank canvas.  A clean slate.  A fresh start.  Everything is imaginable.  But, there’s still one more day of 2013 left!  What to do with it? It has been an intense year—full of both positive and negative experiences, people and news.  There was the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.  I shot my first scripted movie!  A dream come true.  I found out my Dad has a...

Where do you get this experience?  Internship. Internships, internships, internships.  They are the number one thing that can get you prepared for the job market we have today.  In a recent survey by The Chronicle and the American Public Media’s Marketplace, employers said that many candidates, though they had the right qualifications, they were...

In the Trenches—Day 337 Year 2:  “THE WAR OF ART”

Day 337 Year 2:  I set an intention for 2013 to be the year of completing my creations.  To review:  that’s none.  Yes, things have moved forward—a lot.  An hour has been shaved off of High School 911’s running time, we have a rough assembly of Collusions, I have a first words-on-paper draft of my script Death Over 3 Bottles of Wine which I just got great feedback on and I’m about to start another pass, and Screenwriter Cindy and I have been working like maniacs (and having a blast) the last two weeks to get her going on a rewrite of The Botox Party which she just started on the first act.  But, is anything actually and totally complete?  No. Surprisingly, I’m not...
