My Latest LinkedIn "About" Update

My Latest LinkedIn "About" Update 


Yes, I'm as thrilled about this as you probably are, but in all seriousness, I've gotten enough animation work and sold enough of my novels off my LinkedIn presence to genuinely care about how user (recruiter/story editor/reader) friendly my info is on that site.

Here's the latest version of that section. I'm pleased. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Special thanks to Melanie Anne Perry (FRSA, FlnstAM, FAPA) for helping me whip it into shape!

You can go HERE to see my full LinkedIn profile. Here we go!

Animation & Character-Driven Story Specialist | Emmy-nominated Lyricist

I write character-driven stories for television animation and young adult/middle-grade fiction. I've written for studios such as Warner Bros, Netflix, and Cartoon Network on numerous episodes of audience favorites like Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated. My YA space opera, Ghost Star, was published by Amazon Kindle Press after winning the Kindle Scout reader-selection program. My comedy background as a performer with The Groundlings is foundational for the way I build story, character, and dialogue. I'm particularly interested in developing character-driven story worlds for animation and television, and collaborating on projects that grow from concept through series development.

I'm currently open to new opportunities in animation, television writing, and narrative development -- either staff or project-based roles.

I'm also interested in game narrative design and story-driven educational content, where strong characters and world-building are key.

Currently residing in Los Angeles with my awesome family and a feisty Russian tortoise—who's 100% convinced she's the real genius behind my stories. That said, I'm open to relocation within the U.S., particularly Tulsa or St. Louis, and happy to discuss other locations for the right role.

Also, available for freelance writing, voice and on-camera acting, and consulting.

Check out more credits on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0260241/.

If you're building something fun, hit me up—let's connect and chat! 🚀

Nice, right? If you're in a position to hire me, you should totally do that. Thanks! 😊

Bonus Author Support


Most local libraries have an online feature on their site where you can ask them to add books to their collection. My library (where I do a lot of my novel writing) calls this feature "Suggest a Purchase." 


You can see a screen capture of their form in this post. Your library may call it something else, but the description will be similar. 

You can find the ISBN# for any of my paperbacks on each book's Amazon page. My library asks for this number and I'm guessing most other libraries do. If you'd like to go to my Amazon Author Page where all of my books are listed, please click HERE. The ISBN number is where all of the book's info (page count, etc.) is clustered.

Let me know if you have any questions and how it went if you decide to give this a try.

Thank you and happy reading!

Close But No Emmy


Was nominated in 2013, but never won an Emmy. On the other hand, I got to hold one when I was a yute!

Kolchak: The Night Stalker Reboot



Attention Showbiz types, here's my pitch: 

 
Reboot of Kolchak: The Night Stalker starring me and featuring a down on her luck AI controlled android ninja babe as a sidekick. And...go!

Childhood Baseball Cards for Sale



Hey, guys! I'm selling my childhood baseball cards from c.1970 and some notable cards from the 80s and 90s. All cards are non-rated, some are in excellent/near mint condition, and others are a little rough around the edges (literally). 
 
Also selling some some non-baseball cards -- mostly hockey and a couple of basketball cards -- from those eras, too. 
 
Check out my eBay site to see the listings which feature a pic and detailed description of each card so you know what you're getting. All sales are through eBay only. Thanks!

VO Actor's Life

Doing a little book trailer VO for a friend. Fun!


Pro Tip: Why bother with a fancy audio booth when a carpeted closet with custom hanging clothes sound dampening will do?
