I wrote a Research Paper Writing guide for students in 2013 after years of seeing them struggle with the process. Guess it’s about time I updated it, voila: dropshadowartgallery.gumroad.com/l/researchpa...

Read ““Remember This?” Why the Internet Keeps Nostalgia-Dumping on Us (And Why We Keep Liking It Anyway)“ by Laura Rebecca on Medium: medium.com/@dojogrl/rem...

“There’s no real age limit for knowing how to party.” In Brussels, residents of retirement homes recently went out dancing at a nightclub as part of a program to fight loneliness among older people. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/19/w...

I just submitted my feature screenplay, "Canyon Crest" to Your Script Produced! 4Th Edition via FilmFreeway.com!

I had no idea anyone outside of my personal friend circle was even reading my @Substack, but whoever you are: THANK YOU!!!!

Hey everybody, I wrote my very first feature length screenplay. I’m proud of myself, not because I think it’s any good, but because I actually finished a project. I’m sending it to some competitions, so🤞🍀

Embarrassing confession: for years I thought this tree on Hollywood Boulevard was a jacaranda; turns out it’s actually a Pink Trumpet tree!

I love LA during golden hour. It never gets old. I'm posting most of my photos on @fotoapp.co now, anybody else there?
