I come up with ideas.
Sometimes funny ones.
Sometimes heartfelt ones. Sometimes stupidly fun ones.
I got into this business to make people feel something (something good I hope but I'm open to all emotions).

I also have an overly can-do attitude. I never went to portfolio school. I couldn't network with other creatives to make spec. That's why all of the spec work you see in my book was designed and written by me (well, 97% of it). So, if it sucks, I'm sorry. Blame the Sicilian in me for not giving up.

When I’m not writing, I’m watching movies. Lots of them. And logging them on Letterboxd. And when I'm not watching movies, I'm curating playlists on my Spotify in a series I call Now That's What Frankie Calls Music. As I write this, I'm up to vol 86. And when I'm not doing that I'm probably sleeping.

Give me a nudge to see if I'm breathing, because I usually get my best ideas at bedtime.
