A favorite summer activity for my son and I is swimming. Often times we take our GoPro with us to capture some cool video as well as use it for an object to hide and find in the water. Since I have been playing around with an editing app for the iPad Pro called LumaFusion... Continue Reading →
In November I was writing every single day and blogging every day. December has been a different story. It is the 16th as I write this and I have not written a blog in a couple of weeks. I have worked on my script a little but I’ve mainly been busy with other things. Hopefully... Continue Reading →
Day 27 has gone away. I wrote and progress was made. I'm writing again now and coming up on a flashback scene in my script.
