got this in high school. think I paid 50 dollars for this on eBay hoping to teach myself how to be a better writer over the summer. it was a lot of money for me. most I'd ever spent on words printed on paper. now years later it's the only printed script on my shelf.

70 years ago today the country lost its first Black Naval Aviator, Jesse Brown.
We’re here in Savannah, prepping to bring this story to the screen. I couldn't be more excited to introduce more folks to Jesse and his wingman, Tom Hudner, who desperately tried to bring Jesse home.

The 10-episode series hails from co-creators Graham Roland and JD Dillard. Roland will also serve as showrunner, while Dillard will direct the pilot.

I've had so many producers launch into notes about my script/idea before asking me why I wrote it and what I want it to be. A good producer hears you out and helps get you closest to that goal.

what I feel is too big, too unwieldy, and too heavy for the internet. but. there is a reason black bodies stand victorious in the work I create and want to create. I hope that when you see us as the heroes we are, you'll be too afraid to kill us.

much more to reflect on, but a 'full circle' moment today. grateful to the Blue Angels and LCDR Griffin Stangel, who took me up in the F/A-18 to give me a little taste of what they (and my dad used to) do. my dad said he wouldn't disown me if I could do 7 g's so we hit 7.2.
