Inside Story

Get an absurd, fun, short story sent straight to your inbox once per quarter!

​

Inside Story is released on the last Friday of March, June, September, and December on Substack.

 

All short stories are written ~specially~ for the newsletter by yours truly. I also include project updates, festival news, and written musings, on occasion.

 

The newsletter was launched in July 2022 as a way to connect with people. I'm primarily a screenwriter-director, but the time in between -- after post-production is complete and before the films can be released out into the world -- feels like a limbo period of waiting to connect with an audience. Who likes feeling stuck? It's one of my worst nightmares, literally. I have a recurring nightmare about being stuck on an elevator; usually comes up once a week, so there's some fun psychoanalysis for you to do.

​

TLDR: I never get sick of writing; hopefully, you won't get sick of me either.

​

P.S. Check your spam folder. A bunch of inboxes seem to think I'm a catfishing fraud desperate for iTunes gift cards!
