All the infamous Juni-Q wanted was to be a movie producer and get her film distributed, but a rich and powerful stalker who gets her into the Mariposa Film Festival may be luring her to her doom... Sequel to Juni-Q and the Secrecy of Desire #booksky

It's worth noting that I've written, to my knowledge, the greatest #MarxBrothers reboot ever. I actually have a little competition from one movie and one book. I meant what I said. #scriptsky

I have blown off anything remotely "metal" my whole life, but Earth Tongue has captured my interest. Their music videos are the kind that elevate the songs to another level. Plus the huge sound is just Gussie and her drummer! #music #earthtongue #kiwimusicians youtu.be/PvYPpSjpl9o?...

This was my most popular script on Screenpit day, which is wild considering what goes down in it and how difficult the very damaged, fairly sociopathic protagonist Dayton can be to like. I have been wondering lately if the gorilla scene is too ludicrous, but nobody has complained yet!

I have to say I am not pleased with the Galaxy Buds 4. Whose ears are these supposed to fit? Why does the sound cut out and glitch when I mow the lawn (phone and case in my pocket, mind you)?

Dreamed an unbelievably long and detailed saga of owning a flying car last night, including mishaps, a scheme to charge people for rides, and some breathtaking travels. Tom Cruise was tangentially involved. Ended with a terrifying sleep paralysis dream as a ghoul woman bent down to my face.

THE IRREGULARS When four teens cosplay as superheroes to live out their comic book fantasies, they stumble upon a real life alien invasion-and may just end up saving the world! It's Avengers meets Goonies. #ScreenPit #Fea

A poster for the original screenplay THE IRREGULARS. It is modeled after the cover of a comic book. The background is yellow with a black mask on the front.

In the corner is a box like you'd see on a comic with the silhouette of a girl with a cape and above that a price of 60 cents and an '1' for the first issue.

A starburst on the poster says 'An Original Screen Play!' and the name of the writer 'By David Mueller' is at the bottom.

The beauty of Peter Jackson's LOTR trilogy is that it's so abundant to the point of overflowing with endless treasures that one can cringe and laugh at Sam saying in slow motion, "Shaaaare the looooooad" or fuss about ghosts being neon green without forgetting that Peter batted .980 on his choices.

My chief complaint about Return of the King is that I need a little more magic badassness from Gandalf the frickin' White when he's facing mere orcs. That staff should be sending three flying every sweep.

Mostly writing the new Juni-Q novel in 500 word bursts, but this first part of the book has a lot of mini-episodes going on before the larger story kicks in. I conclude an episode, I take a break for the day. And concluding a trilogy means balancing a lot of spinning plates... #booksky

I can wallow in darkness with the best of them, but I do not have any form of chronic depression. I'm an eternally chipper person in my general demeanor, and I try not to take that for granted. It helps me care for those in my family whose natural thermostat has a much sadder setting.

Honey is looking for a better nursing job. Some say what their offered pay range is. Others play this sick, stupid game of asking her what she would like to make, and then reject her application if she says a number too high.
