Tooting My Own Horn

Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006

Okay, time for some even-more-blatant-than-usual self-promotion. My most recent project is the super-hero romantic comedy "Love and Capes." It’s the story of the Crusader, and his girlfriend Abby. It’s kind of "Lois and Clark" meets "Mad About You." If you visit my site, or this blog, you’ve probably heard me mention it. And you can [...]

Work Comes From the Weirdest Places

Friday, May 5th, 2006

"Forgive me if I s-st-stutter from all of the clutter in my head" — For You I Will, by Teddy Geiger Mostly a lot of little things happening at Zahler World Headquarters this week. Just enough to fill my head with lots of loose Legos to rattle around and keep me from being as focused [...]
