I try to take at least 1 writing class per year. Sometimes that's a paid class, sometimes it's free, sometimes it would be paid, but i got a free trial of something so I could take it for free, but every year, I take AT LEAST one class.
It's been a minute
Me forgetting daily that I have this app. Ugh
We've had black Elphaba's, but Lencia is our first full-time black Elphaba!
Actress and activist, you may know her from her roles in Hamilton, where she played understudy for Eliza, Angelica, and Maria. She also played Joanne in Rent and is one of the founders of the Racial Justice Task Force.
A 15 year old is a child. A 15 year old boy is a child. A 15 year old black BOY is a CHILD! This issue is seeing black BOYS as adults or calling them grown is a problem. Please stop
Black women characters in media deserve to be soft, smart, versatile, have fun, express mental health,, have boundaries, just be.
Lencia Kebede is our first fun time black Elphaba!
And actress and activist, you may know her from her roles in Hamilton, where she played understudy for Eliza, Angelica, and Maria Reynolds. She also played Joanne Jefferson in Rent and is one of the founders of the Racial Justice Task Force.
I would love a schedule or save draft button
Happy #MLKDay
Since today is MLK day and there's nothing else really important happening, I decided to do Theater Thursday on a Monday and talk about plays about Dr. KING

Always hated trying to integrate into new spaces for things I enjoy. I almost never feel I fit in it and no1 is interested new faces. Feels like people already have their cliques and not welcome. That's why I don't like 2 join discords. usually don't interact. Also, anxiety
Good days and & bad days
Melani Minds returns in February. Season 3 returns with all new interviews w/amazing black women, new conversations about the comic community, and a new co host!!
You can find a play covering almost any subject you're looking for. You just have to know where to look
Hehe
Let me pause. I've missed so many cutscenes b/c i had to get up and do something
I'm in the middle of reasons writing (yes again) my comic script, and I'm wondering 1, if I should rename it, and 2, if I should introduce certain aspects sooner than I originally planned.

Superman, Batman, Spiderman, Hulk, Black Widow, and even Deadpool. Soooo many comic characters as you know them today are very different from how they were created. They have changed so much for a multitude of reasons. And that's mostly been a good thing.

Why does she look so uncanny valley? Even her own people know something ain't right. Lol
And "As long as the story is good, why does it matter?"
And yes. People are also going the indie route. 2 things can be true. I have several comic books out through @midnightcomics.bsky.social
And i know several other women writers.
But that doesn't mean more well known companies get off the hook
What's funny to me is that most comic book characters trade hands constantly. It's when you ask for more women, especially black women, writers that is suddenly an "agenda" or "don't you want to preserve the characters the way the creators intended?"
ALSO! 🥹❤️💪🏾
Keep the train going! lets get to 10K for our indie animation and have our fantasy witch show! With dragons!
We need like $75k more to be fully funded. Crazy! I remember when we still needed so much more. This is the final week. If you’re able to increase your pledges that’s another great way to help as a backer. I’ll be locking in this week and I hope yall will join me! LETS MAKE SOME TV!

Birria tacos

I mean, yes, but we just didn't cook a lot
I actually don't have leftovers for the first time ever
Did you know that Wicked was supposed to be a movie originally?
Marc Platt, the UP producer, changed his mind after speaking with Stephen Schwartz who argued that a Broadway production would be less expensive than a big-budget film, and the musical was adapted for Broadway instead.
