When I’m not doing…well, any of the other things I’m doing, I’m writing. Mainly about entertainment-related items, so it seems more like a “business” type of blog than a personal one. But I love entertainment, so it doesn’t feel like work.
I’ve always loved movies, and I love talking to people about movies. I keep thinking maybe one day I’ll be lucky enough to have someone pay me to write reviews of movies or articles about movie stars or whatever. Who knows? But I watch a lot of movies and I have a lot of thoughts about them, many of which will soon appear on my profile at Medium.com. There’s a bit of stream-of-consciousness rambling over there already, so I hope you’ll go follow me there.
Every so often, I try to write something for places like Examiner.com and iTricks.com. I was privileged to write about one of my favorite X-Files episodes for iTricks. It’s not a terribly long article, but it’s worth noting that the assignment was to write about this fantastic episode in ONLY THREE SENTENCES! That just wouldn’t do. Thank goodness for complex sentence structure.
A few years ago, I joined the staff of Random Acts, one of my favorite nonprofits organizations. Random Acts’ mission is “to conquer the world, one random act of kindness at a time”. Along with the opportunity to help them further their mission, I also have had the distinct joy of writing about others and the way they’re putting kindness into their communities around the world. I highly recommend visiting Random Acts’ Kindness Stories if your faith in humanity needs a little boost.
Like any good writer, I like to read. My to-read list is embarrassingly long, but I will get to all of it. And sometimes I like to read aloud, which is why I’m trying my hand at voice acting. Could be fun!
And lastly, I’ve started playing around with screenwriting, mostly to see how I like it. NYC Midnight’s Short Screenplay Challenge provides some very interesting prompts for creating said scripts, and I thought I would share a couple with you here.
