You found me.

I have stuff to show you. Mostly theatre stuff.  You can download excerpts of my plays if you like. Some are published. You can buy those online at Concord Theatricals, Playscripts, and Amazon. You can also reach out to the folks on my contact page. I don’t post TV samples here but you’re welcome to visit my IMDB page.

I was posting stories and missives here (and below) because I couldn’t stand the thought of a dead website taking up space and being dead. But I got a little tired of talking to myself and pretending it was you. So, I went back to focusing on TV stuff and plays. You can get still my posts via email if you like, though they’re irregular and probably a little annoying. YAY. Sign up here.

Otherwise, I dunno. I used to be chatty over on “twitter” but I shut my account down because um you know. Sometimes I post on insta? And one time I binge-posted micro-vids of myself in miniature on TikTok but I got bored so very fast. Mostly I’m just skidding down rabbit holes which can be time consuming.

Hopefully I’ll have actual news soon. Til then, sleep is a perfectly acceptable.

This is mostly for press folk.
