Philly Screenwriter

As far as books are concerned, I’ve really gotten into reading them as of late. That might not sound bad if I was say 13, but I’m 26. For a quick background on my inability to grasp anything literary, the only two books I can remember reading, required or not, before I dove head first [...]

Over the last 2 weeks I’ve made my way down to old city on numerous occasions to catch a few flix at the Philadelphia Film Festival. Alicia and I have been talking about going for the past 2 years or so but never made it  there. This year we caught 4 good movies and 1 [...]

Dear Mrs. Muse,
Recently I’ve called on you a lot to help me with most of my writing. Sometimes you came, other times, not so much. Most of the time I sat around waiting for you to appear or pop into my head like you usually do. Well, Friday morning while I was at work, I [...]

First, what I’m not doing:
I’m not hating myspace anymore.
I signed up after swearing I would never. For what I want to do it’s the perfect application. (More on that later)
I’m not buying a Canon XLs (Also more on that later)

I’ve updated the books I read last year as well as some new ones from 2006. I still have plans to move this blog to another name, my domain name, but I’m having trouble with setting up wordpress. Once all is said and done, the books from 2005 will get their own link/page and only [...]

The benchmake for every independent film is the Sundance film festival. Why? I have no idea. There are other film festivals that will do the same thing for an filmmakers or and actors career, but for some reason this is the first and only place that really count in peoples minds. Chalk it up to [...]

I don’t watch many award shows but I try and catch a few of the major ones. The Golden Globes happens to be one of the few I actually like. That being said I didn’t know about them being on until about an hour before they started. As I already had a date with a [...]

I haven’t posted in awhile. Just chalk it up to plan old laziness. With the New Year, here is a new post.
Last year I did a lot of things I set out to accomplish. Most feel short. I had planed on reading 15 – 20 books. I got to 11 as [...]
