Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos shouldn't be paying the same amount in Social Security tax as someone making $175,000 a year.

I have my screenwriting group and then my novel group really close to each other and my pages are due for both. Will be a lot of rewriting! I got this! Just need to be organized as hell.

That's crazy! I didn't believe you so I looked it up and yeah she didn't have training. But she's tap dancing! Wow. This is what I found too: After Gene Kelly criticized her lack of experience, she was found crying under a piano by Fred Astaire, who helped encourage her.

My producer has been trying to get my short film footage from the last editor who we weren't happy with. He finally got it from him. And now he's saying it's having trouble booting. He said he will pay to get it fixed. I'm trying not to panic. Should I be panicking?!

Got a script note asking what “I just can’t with this” means.
Which immediately made me just… can’t with this.

Well that should help some. Somehow, I know exactly how many pages it will be. I mean, not perfectly. But I seem to get right where I want to be on page count. I always worry I won't. But somehow I do!

Additional advice: Use that two weeks to work on *another* story. You not only push the new project forward, you double the "distance" from the current draft you've set aside.

Hmmm I use outlines so I know the length I'll be. I know some people like to be panters. So thought might make it harder to keep it short.

A year ago today I directed my first short film. We have had issues finding the right editor so we're still in editing and we finally found someone. Taking much longer than I had hoped. I can't wait till it's done and I can share with everyone!

Hope being vertical half the time is good? lol I'm good. Started a new job this year that I'm loving. So that's good! Turned in a new draft of a romcom to my producer last night. Yay! Working on a new rewrite as we speak.

I know the past dean to my son's college through a friend, totally randomly. He wanted to send a text udpate on my son giving a speech to his college today. I meant to text, thank you for the update. My phone corrected it to thank you for the nudist. Thankfully I checked before I hit send.
