My little book is now available at the Last Bookstore Studio City - thank you @lastbookstorestudiocity for being super cool and making me sign them all too.

A cool thing! My story “End of Play” was re-released on It’s Storytime with Wil Wheaton today followed by a chapter of Stephen King’s novella “The Body” which just released in audio book form for the 40th anniversary of “Stand By Me” - the Rob Reiner movie based on that novella. My story was chosen as a complimentary companion in tone to King’s story, to which I say ❤️🥹 Listen to the story + the chapter sample on all your fav podcast platforms 🎧

I had an amazing time creating a ten minute immersive piece with my @rogue_artists team May 1 weekend. Even though I started the weekend on three hours of 💤 and serious imposter syndrome. It was stressful of course but we leaned into joy and laughter as much as we could. And I think we all needed that. ❤️❤️ thanks for inviting us to play. Shout out to our team: Chelsea Sutton, Andy Lowe, Cinthia Nava, John Nobori, Galen Howard, Carlos Chavez, Amir Levi, Paul Turbiak. @crsutton @chinesepirate_ @cinthesizer @go_button @theamirlevi @galenhoward @carloshasjoined @turbiaktor 🙏Repost from @afterhourstheatreco • Announcing the winners of the 2026 Los Angeles Immersive Invitational ✨ Thank you to every artist, creator, volunteer, collaborator, and audience member who helped make this year’s invitational such a special weekend.

I’m super excited to share that my weird little horror play inspired by a random trip to a paranormal convention is an O’Neill Finalist this year. Thank you to everyone who has helped with readings and feedback on this thing over the last year, both on stages and in my living room. Couldn’t have gotten this far without a truly badass group of supportive and smart artists who are sometimes willing to lend me their ears and voices in exchange for tacos. 👻 Repost from @oneill_center • Congratulations to this year’s National Playwrights Conference Finalists! We encourage you to explore these exceptional works and the artists behind them—and check back soon to see which projects will continue on to development at the O’Neill this summer!

Still life moments from the first part of this year.

If you're in Charleston, South Carolina, you can catch a workshop production of my play THE DEAD WOMAN performed by theatre students at College of Charleston, Chapel Theatre. This is a capstone project from an awesome theatre student, Mira Zimmerman, who reached out to me about using the play. I'm sad I can't fly out to see it, but super excited to hear all about it. If you're in the area, it's free and has two performances: April 17th, 7:30pm April 18th, 2:00pm

It’s always a surprise when reviews of stand alone short stories come around but this one hits my heart in a special way. I’d previously read a rather dismissive review of this same story from another guy but Vito at @foofaraw.press actually engaged with the text rather than assuming I have no original thought lol and my ❤️‍🩹 is healed. Thank you for this thoughtful review and thank you to Diabolical Plots for publishing it! (Full review linked in my bio).

Had an amazing time last week with this awesome women talking about books and writing 📚Repost from @lwwesterfield • Tour stop #5: Los Angeles 🌴🍊☀️ a bit of a homecoming with old and new writer friends @_kim_young_ @crsutton @evaiswriting at @northfigbookshop
