Day 2 – LA Trip
We spent the whole day in Santa Monica/Venice today with our friend Jeff. Ate down at The Fig Tree (yummy) in Venice and just took in the local color as they say. We walked along the beach in the middle of winter and it was 80 degrees. Woohoo. Sunshine feels good. Had our first pinkberry, got razzed by some local coffee snobs for soy milk in [...]
Day 1 – LA Trip
Hey all. We just got to LA, actually Burbank, picked up our Electric Blue VW Beetle and went off to Sherman Oaks. We found it really hard to fit all our luggage in the car, so I don't think we'll be buying one anytime soon, or at all. After a lovely vegan meal at Kung Pao Bistro (in Sherman Oaks, on Ventura), I bought a couple copies of [...]
All Of A Sudden Summer Ended and The Coolest Book on TV Writing
All of a sudden, I turned around and our "summer" ended. OK, so we didn't get much of one to begin with.

Brando and I are celebrating our joint birthday party tonight and he just came in two-toned Half Maltese, half mud [...]
L.A. Trip – Day 5

I hadn't been there in years, but I've ordered numerous books, brads, paper, and other accessories from them. They have any thing you'd ever need for your [...]
L.A. Trip – Day 4
I rolled up to the WGA Library at 7000 W 3rd in the SOFAX area. Why go there? Because they have produced TV and Film script that you can read there. You can park underneath the WGA Foundation building (cheap, make sure you get your ticket validated), go upstairs, say hi to the front desk dudes, and head to the lockers, where you can [...]
Pilar Alessandra. Woodywoo!
On a positive note, I am ecstatic that Pilar Alessandra is coming up from LA next weekend. As Brando would say, "Woodywoo!" That's his "hot girl" bark. No, really it is. We are so lucky to have someone of her caliber conduct one of her workshops for an extremely affordable fee. For those of you who are vacillating about attending the [...]
