    Do you ever have so much to do that you become a deer in the headlights and can’t seem to accomplish anything? You stare at your computer, the piling up papers, the dying plants on the balcony, the list of phone calls to make, the books unread, the gathering dust, the tantalizing projects demanding your…

    A few days ago I had the privilege of finally seeing where my dear friend, Mel Kobayashi, spends her passionate painterly moments. The visit was overdue. Mel opened the door, blathered on and on about the mess, that it was a lot better than before and that she had been cleaning prior but she still…

    It’s 2010 and somehow January slipped by in a speed, and in a series of events that left me a negligent blogger. I feel like I’ve left a love one unattended for just way too long. So.. it’s February 1st and I’m not waiting any longer for the right moment, the inspiration, and the long…

    “A man came to the Village Headman and pleaded for help. ‘I can’t stand it any longer. My life is sheer hell. There’s me, my wife, my children, and my in-laws all living together in a single room. We’re arguing, and complaining, and constantly at each other’s throats. It’s destroying us all.’ ‘I can help…

    Remember those forts you use to build, as kids, in your living rooms, or bedrooms, or outside, using chairs, blankets, and anything that could help to create a cool cave? Worlds far from the one we were in were concocted with no agenda. Just recently, I relived a similar experience. “Under The Piano Sound Spa”…

    What a week last week was… Death was roaming around making it’s presence more evident as it cast itself on people the masses knew. It slammed itself onto the innocent who were standing up to injustice. And it also roamed less publicly into some of my friends’ worlds. How are you affected by these final…

    When I was little, I didn’t want to grow up. The grown up world looked terribly serious and my instincts told me sub-consciously that there would be a drastic change. One day when we were kids hanging out in the back shed lighting matches for fun (no we didn’t burn the place down), my little…

    The above tweet (twitter term) came to me last night while I was having the privilege of witnessing a conversation about writing between an experienced screenwriter, and a newer one who was asking some pertinent questions.

    When one door closes, another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” Alexander Graham Bell Thank you for the great quote Mr. Bell.
