Reminder that YOUR LUCKY DAY is a Christmas movie. Shot in 16 days on one lens, featuring one of the last performances of Angus Cloud. I produced it. On Netflix now.

discovering hyperlexia in a child is one of the coolest and slightly terrifying things you'll ever experience. they typically know the word already, without you intentionally teaching it. the memory recall is next level.

Actor John Lithgow on Donald Trump: “Things are getting so grave it’s getting harder and harder to make fun of the subject without feeling like you’re normalizing it. I’m very worried about America. I think it’s a critical moment for democracy on the most basic level”

First pitch of Blood Drive @stage32 to Jos Villegas. Really put me at ease. No script request but good feedback on the pitch. #screenwriting
