Dear Reader,

We are still in a battle with the Flu, but movement is movement.

Day 16 of 3,653 of my NonDē Film career (warts and all). I’m committing the next 10 years from 40 to 50– all in and sharing the process.

Today’s log:

• All five of us have the flu

• All five of us are improving

Thanks for the messages of support sent.

Today’s Band of the Day: Fontaines DC.

Today’s Film Log:

• Developed a new film idea with my wife

  • Producer already signed on (verbally)

  • Co-Creator already signed on (verbally)

• Did Research for the Drive-In

• Got organized

• Held calls with:

  • My producer.

  • A comedian buddy

• Rebuilt all branding around the modern filmmaker

• Rebuilt all SEO around the modern filmmaker

We can all do it.

Together, with faith.
