Nothing makes me more certain that I should cancel an account for something than when they put up obstacles like this to reduce the chances that I'll cancel my account. #ByeCanva

One of the best things about building a media hamlet with my creative fam is that the answer to the question, "Why this, why you, & why now?" is "We enjoy it ourselves & know others do, too; we can do it ourselves; & we want to do it now." Just because it takes years doesn't mean it's impossible. ♥️🙏

Bumping this again. I'll have a limited number of spots available for November/December, so if you're thinking about it, now's the time to sign up.
Earlier this year, I decided to offer script notes and consultations for the first time. Why would anyone pay me for that? Well, I've spent the last 35 years in LA as a writer, and I've worked all sides of this equation.
