Here’s the latest… my screenplay, Reclaim, did not make it into the final 12 at Sundance. Although this wasn’t the news I wanted, I’m still thrilled that my first screenplay made it into the final round. Still a risk I found worth taking and would take again in a second. The next contest is UCLA [...]
Since I’ve sent off the final version of my screenplay to Sundance it has felt a little like post-partum blues. I miss the deadlines, as well as, the creative inspiration and flow that I felt everyday for the last few months.It has allowed me to put that creative energy back into other projects that I [...]
I just got my script off to an agent out in L.A. and I’m up at 2:12 AM writing in my journal and setting a field of intention for the conference. I’m thrilled to be a part of it. I have a life coach in London who encouraged me to take something related to the [...]
Well, we had our first ‘table read’ and it was awesome to hear it come to life. Of course, I didn’t really know what I was doing… but that is nothing new. The Final Draft Software that I use has a voice feature which is great. It allows me to hear the script read by [...]
Although I’ve been on a sabattical for 5 months, good things have come my way. I’ve been invited to attend and autograph books at Maria Shriver’s Women’s Conference. I’ll be at the Verizon Wireless Booth October 25th and 26th. Please stop by and say “Hi!”. This is Maria Shriver’s last conference as the Govenor’s wife. [...]
I’ve taken a self-imposed sabbatical for five months. I’ve hardly seen or spoken to anyone. I’ve been completely obsessed with writing the most brilliant screenplay I can and submitting it to Sundance. So, now what? How do I feel? Complete, proud, grateful and amazed. I had no idea what I was jumping into and I [...]
RECLAIM offers the Originality of an Independant Film with the Potential of an Action, Thriller Blockbuster. April 6th about 2 AM I got the inspiration for this project. May 13th I started jotting down notes for a book. May 18th I decided to write a screenplay instead of a book. May 24th I got Final [...]
Universe, what can I say beyond, “Thank you, again!” As I’ve mentioned earlier, I began writing letters daily to the Universe. I’ve never been good at meditating or journaling, so I decided what would work for me is writing letters. I start off every day writing a letter in a Composition Book left over from [...]
September 26, 2010 Well, I haven’t even had time to blog in my last ditch effort to write the best possible screenplay for RECLAIM. My last entry was 9/22/10. Right after that I hit a huge wall. Writing this screenplay has been an interesting process. I have two boards up with 3×5 cards and a [...]
My breakthrough came just in time. I’ve hired someone in the ‘business’ to go over my screenplay draft and it’s due tonight. I’ve been writing for 12, 15 and 18 hour days. And guess what??? It’s been a blast. Frustrating as hell sometimes. But all in all. Great FUN! I don’t have much time to [...]
