Hey WICISI Community, Check out my new trailer for: Echoes...https://youtu.be/D8iKNIQQlgY I'd love to hear your thoughts! Also, stay tuned for more information on how you can watch the entire film project.

I don’t need this draft to be perfect. I just need it to exist.

I just want to take a moment to give a huge shoutout to my amazing WICISI community! 🎉👏 Y’all have been showing up, putting in the work, and making incredible progress on your writing journeys. It’s inspiring to see the stories taking shape, and the confidence growing with each step. This is exactly why I created this space—to support, uplift, and hold each other accountable as we bring our creative visions to life. Watching you all push through challenges, celebrate your wins, and build connections has been nothing short of incredible. So here’s to YOU! Keep going, keep creating, and keep believing in your stories. The world needs them! Let’s keep making movie magic together. 🚀🎥 #WICISIWins #FilmmakingJourney #CreativeCommunity Would you like to add any specific member shoutouts or milestones?

Happy Holidays everyone. I published my 'Apple' newsletter and what I would like to do is make the contents in the newsletter a video for YouTube. Maybe 5 minutes. I don't want to just recite facts. I want to tell a story in a compelling way. Are there resources (books/videos/filmmakers) anyone would recommend to help me get the story out of the facts about apples? I watch a lot of docs but I'm starting to realize most of them are about people, not things. Any recs for docs about things would be good too. I made an ode to the apple video. It is below. I really want to do a more serious but compelling and interesting short film.

Dear WICISI Creators, A big congratulations to everyone who joined today’s co-writing session! 🎬✨ The creativity, focus, and energy you brought were truly inspiring.

Mark your calendars and get ready to dive back into your scripts with support, accountability, and momentum! Also, I’m excited to announce that in just a few days, Writing Your Story will go live! I’ll send an email as soon as it’s open so you can dive right in. This is going to be a game-changer for getting your ideas onto the page. Thank you for showing up for your stories and for being part of this amazing community. You’re doing the work, and it shows. Let’s keep the magic flowing!
