Unsolicited is kinda like a reality show where I laugh, cry, and curse my way through a career in film and tv. I'll share all of the highs, lows and lessons learned, as I embark on an adventure to get my road trip comedy, MOTHER OF THE RIDE, produced.

Writing a Manuscript in Two Weeks for the LitUp Competition
This month Reese Witherspoon launched a literary competition called LitUp that challenges underrepresented, unpublished writers to submit stories that feature female protagonists for the opportunity to attend a writer's summit and be mentored by professionals in the industry.
A story that has been burning in my heart was barely started when I heard about the competition, so I lit a fire under my ass and got to work. Will I make it by the end of the month? Stay tuned to find out.
