So i'm in Ventura visiting my fam and I started flipping through one of my old high school year books when I discovered a few important things I'd like to share with you:1) I WAS skinnier in high school than i am now... BUT, i didn't know what i was doing, so I look better now. (win!)but more importantly:2) All the boys who rejected me in high school ARE GAY. and they probably were then too.The

So tonight I felt a little inspired by Newsweek. The truth is my inspiration came from Oprah. Damnit. I always pretend I’m not one of those women who idolize her… but I totally am. Another thing that is true about me is that I get in these weird moods late at night where I feel emotions more deeply (which isn't something that should be possible, considering how emotional my days have been lately,

So recently I noticed a new building in Westwood with a big shiny corporate sign on top that read "HELIO." Yesterday I heard that Helio was throwing some kind of cell phone launch party that included a "secret musical guest" (Beck) and was hosted by Danny Masterson, Chloe Seveny, and Milla Jovavitch - it seemed unusual that 2 of the 4 celebrities mentioned were scientologists, so I decided to

SO i hate to say it, but clever advertising really gets me going. The latest and best example being THE DA VINCI CODE QUEST BY GOOGLE. This is such genius advertising! I'm quite proud of google actually - i think that this is a better ad for it, than it is for the Howard Movie! The deal:In the "quest," web surfers are challenged to solve riddles, curate virtual gallery walls, translate decoded

Jackie, you're the "Wit" (52% dark, 26% spontaneous, 10% vulgar) your humor style:CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARKYou like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things

Hi cyber friends, sorry I've been awol, I've obviously been busy world-fixing. So first of all, if you're wondering about "what's happening" then I will just say we have something in common. I haven't written any specifics about any of the amazing leads that I'm following behind, because there's no news yet. I wish there was something big to announce, but I'm going to try and not think about it,

The pilates stint is over, yes, I actually quit my day job. Things are starting to happen, more to follow... cross your fingers for me! : )

Back when I was just writer larva, I was given the impression that the hardest part about hollywood was just getting in the door. Many have said that the only people who make it are the lucky, the beautiful, or the related-to... but this is a lie that untalented people tell themselves and you, to make themselves feel better. The truth of course is while looks, luck, and relatives can help a lot

SO aside from my day or really mid-afternoon/early-evening job spilling pilates all over the place and writing my script, I have also been writing/producing a live sketch show which will open November 4th. My friends and I running the show thought that instead of waiting around for opportunity/better-representation/financial stability to walk through our front door, we'd hunt it down and beat the

I'm one of those goal-oriented people who has short periods of excessive productivity and then finds excuses (work, sleeping, eating cookies, Lost, SNL, Josh...) to burn out and talk about writing instead of doing it. But when the right excuse to write comes along, I can start again on a non-stop train to burn-outville, which thankfully is a long trip as trains are fucking slow creatures compared

Writer Slash Slightly Disgruntled Pilates Studio Receptionist. Two weeks ago, I assumed the position of "desk lady" at Harmony Studios in West Hollywood. Taking on the position promised an eventually toned body, lots of time to write, and cash. Oh, and the opportunity to meet some people who aren't actor slash somethings. So far, I'm not seeing any results though because 1) watching people do

First rule of productive screenwriting: If you want to finish that script you've been working on for two years, don't start a blog to write about your how your writing's going. All right. I'm going to just finish this script already and not worry about competing with the genius of friedman or august or any of them. I will leave you with this info about my script: GUYS LIKE ME BIG meets WILL AND
