What's Been Going On

I haven't blogged since the 48 Hour Film Festival, so I thought I would fill my five followers in on what's going on in my life, even though, you probably already know, or you really don't give a shit. My buddy, Marc Shuter, and I, finished up our feature length script that we titled, "The Consequences of a Feeble Mind," Marc actually came up with the title. We started writing on March 24th and finished the first draft in early June. A couple weekends ago we finished the re-writes! It's definitely something that we are pretty proud of and can't wait to get it made. The script was entered in to the Creative World Awards' Screenwriting Competition with the first draft we made it to the preliminary round, not bad. We will find out soon if we make the quarterfinals of the Final Draft Big Break Contest!

On a side note, Marc's pilot for a sitcom he wrote for "Law Show," is kicking some major ass! Not only did he make the top 10 in the Script Pipeline Contest, he also made the semifinals of the CWA TV writing contest, and the NexTV Writing and Pitch contest. He's such a great writer, he's going to big things, and I'm honored to be writing with him. We are starting our next project soon.

As far as comedy goes, I haven't been doing much, I went to El Paso for a week at The Comic Strip with Billy D. Washington, had a great time working with him. I have done some other local stuff here and there, but really focusing on school right now. I do have some great gigs coming up though. I will be headlining the Speakeasy Comedy Lounge in Scottsdale in October, which should be super fun!

This past Sunday I had the pleasure of taping my fourth episode of "The After After Party" with Steven Michael Quezada, who you might recognize as Gomez from "Breaking Bad." (R.I.P. Gomie) I love the crew at TAAP, everyone is super friendly and they work their butts off to put on a great show! And they just announced that they signed a deal with DirecTV, which means the show is going national! So every single person that's been on there and will be on there could be seen by up to 50 million viewers! Not a bad deal, congrats to the cast and crew! You guys deserve it.
