Lee Armstrong: Actor in Wilmington, North Carolina.

The Guest Star role I did on "If Loving You Is Wrong" is set to air Tuesday, April 7 @ 9 p.m. on OWN [Oprah Winfrey Network]. Directed by Tyler Perry, I play a job interviewer.

William, nice to be connected with you here on Stage 32. I also have an actor page on Facebook if you're there: https://www.facebook.com/LeeArmstrongActorPage

I'm very pleased to join the cast for Terry Juenger's Live or Die Prods' SAG-AFTRA New Media pilot "Dope." The project will shoot in St. Louis in August 2015. I play the Mayor. What fun!

With pleasure, I join the short SAG-AFTRA film "no name Maddox" for director Glenn Pack' s 6 Pack Films. The title comes from the name on the birth certificate of convicted killer Charles Manson. I play Mayor Ralph Tucker who served from 1948-1968 in Terre Haute, IN. The film goes before lens in April 2015 in Wilmington, NC.

I have launched my actor page on Facebook, Lee Armstrong Actor Page, and invite my friends in the industry to like my page and recommend it to any industry profestionals. https://www.facebook.com/LeeArmstrongActorPage

I'm not sure if is the place to post this, it's not a success story, so please forgive me. When I read all these success stories two things cross my mind. It can happen for me and why didn't my script get requested. We've selected a profession where rejection and disappointment are considered the norm. But to put it into perspective, think of writing like batting in baseball, if your batting .300, you can get into the Hall of Fame. It's also like the lottery, if you don't buy the ticket, you'll never win. We as writers, and we're all writers here, pour out our heart and soul to create our own special baby. Now comes the hard part - sending our baby out into the world (anyone with a college age child knows exactly what I'm talking about). In order to be successful, we have to make ourselves completely vulnerable. First when we write, second when we send our masterpieces out to be reviewed. I applaud those who open themselves up to this process and strongly encourage those who don't to jump in. It may hurt but it won't kill you. And you WILL come out as a better writer on the other side of this process. I won't lie, it sucks when you receive that PASS but you can never, ever take it personally. The difference between a successful writer and a lonely hack is our ability to process the criticism we receive. You don't have to make changes based on every comment we receive but take it to heart, think about it and make the changes that make sense. Also, don't let the naysayers get in your head. We face various forms of resistance - putting off writing, letting failure get into our heads - but the worst is not having the support and encouragement of people close to us. I'm lucky to have that support from my family and the people here. Stage 32 goes a long way to provide a place where we can get the support we all need to keep moving forward. I've been blessed to have my script requested 15 times but I've been PASSED on a hell of a lot more times (I'm not sure if my batting average is .300 but regardless I'm not quitting). December has really sucked for me in terms of getting REQUESTS but January begins soon. So as you sit here and read about all these success stories, remember everyone one of these successes are built on a foundation of PASSES and REJECTIONS. As we move into 2015, I challenge everyone to do something out of their comfort zone. Mine is to sign up for a live pitch (once I develop one). Skype scares the hell out of me. You know how the camera adds 15 pounds? It all goes to my head. It look like a live version of my driver's license picture. Utilize the services on Stage 32 (I've used other services besides Stage 32 and these are by far the best I've come across). I sound like a freakin commercial but I do have a lot of faith in the people here and try to take advantage of what I can - especially the free stuff. I can afford free! I wish everyone the best and hope you all receive more REQUESTS but each PASS brings you one step closer to a REQUEST. Don't let the fear of rejection keep you from pursuing your dream.

I'm pleased to join the casts for two films. In the SAG-AFTRA ULB feature "Ivide" for producers Anshul Jain & Krishnan Sethukumar and director Shyamaprasad, I play the supporting role of Paul Blake, a father whose adult son was adopted at an early age in India. The father does not tune into the cultural conflicts his son is experiencing. I also join the cast of the SAG-AFTRA short film "7:00 A.M." for director Chanel Wang's production company. I play a lead of Arthur, suffering from onset Alzheimer's. I shoot "Ivide" in Atlanta, Dec. & Jan. 2014/5 & "7:00 A.M." shoots this Dec. 2014 in North Carolina. What fun!

Shot a great short in Norfolk VA this week called "Illuminated." Enjoyed working with director Ray Ma & his great crew. I played Uncle Brookes who is the church janitor and hides a secret from his niece in the basement. It was my 6th project through Regent Films, always a pleasure!

Thanks, that was a nice realistic take on cooperation and on finding the right people to work with! I agree; people have different interests, goals and ways of working. It takes time, and effort, for each and every one to find those they match and connect with. I'd be interested to hear more about your view on the issue of what constitutes giving and taking. It is not as easy as it sounds, I find, to sense whether a person feels that he/she is mainly helping or being helped in a given situation, or whether a request is reasonable or not. I'm sure there are as many opinions as there are people out there, but ...

Who's excited for @RedBandSociety tonight? Keep an eye out for yours truly. My character, SAM HOWELL is introduced this episode. Can't wait to see where the story lines go. #redbandsociety #Fox
