Maybe you’ve heard the saying that the longer you wait to do something, the less chance you have of doing it? It’s a cliche in the leadership / persona development world, which I spend a decent amount of time in with books and podcasts. I find them helpful, and inspiring, but also distracting. The truth [...]

Reminder for Mother’s Day
My Mom moved (alliteration!) in with my wife, son, and me a little over a year ago. Technically, she still resides in FL, but is here most of the time. It’s a complicated arrangement with overwhelmingly positive results for everyone. One drawback, however, is that my Mom is around to see all the ways that [...]

I’m just back from a great few days in New York. Busy days. We had our monthly company meeting – we’re still in the middle of our branding conversations. I think we have a pretty good handle on who we are – even we’d like to be – now working on how to communicate that. [...]

It was an amazing few days . . . I attended the Sam Christenen workshop where I met so many amzaing people and learned a lot about myself and how to use me to get more acting work, I had an audition for a feature film that went as well as any I’ve done in [...]

We had the first read of ANGRY FAGS last night. A little out of order in that a lot of the cast has been working diligently for a week and a half. You could tell that everyone was glad to have the room complete. The read went pretty well. Feeling lucky to be working at [...]

It’s been an interesting so far. Arrived Friday and immediately stopped at the Drama Book Shop – again a mix of excitement and depression. So many possibilities and wasted opportunities. Getting older continues to fuck with me and my sense of self. I try to be patient, but its hard. From there, I hit a [...]
