Having been on a 30 year hiatus, since my introduction to the film industry in the early 90's, the passion for writing that I anticipated would subside, has instead flourished and integrated itself into my daily moments of peace.
I dabbled for a bit as an actor. Nothing really notable, other than a scene in "The Tomorrow Man" opposite Corbin Bernsen, in the role of "cop". Buzzy Pringle was probably my favorite stage role in "Love and Kisses" at the Glendale Centre Theatre.
For 30 years, I've never stopped writing. My heart wouldn't allow it. I'm not a graduate of a film school, so the prospects of writing a marketable feature seemed overwhelming a year ago. I'm really just another blue collar dad trying to keep his heart happy while importing my 15 year old daughter's rants into my work to stay relevant. Three features later, I think I've got something.
