Writer, singer, joker, audiobook narrator, I mean, isn’t that enough?

Loved the otherworldly western, Alex Grecian's Red Rabbit, narrated with silky evocation by @JohnPirhalla . Give this one a listen, don't be a daggon varmint. audible.com/pd/Red-Rabbit-…


LOVED laying down a demo track for "Becoming Shakespeare: Young Will, with Music and Songs," a musical-in-the-making composed by composer Carlos Garza & playwright/actor Pamela Kelly.

Thrilled to announce my new shingle as audiobook narrator at DessonThomson. net. Looking forward to reading narratives of all stripes, nonfiction, fiction, biographies, thrillers, and literary fiction, to name just a few!


Between writing breaks, I am currently reading someone whose prose takes my breath right out of my body and leaves me with a set of reverent aqualungs. @legroff Her book 'Florida' is filled with the most arresting short stories I've read since Carver and Flannery O'Connor.

@motionpictures is proud to stand in solidarity with those who are protesting for what's right.

We've enjoyed and spent so much time with our favorite TV show characters (real as in #TheLastDance or fictional like #Fauda), they've become our virtual house guests.

“By investing more time with fictional houseguests, we are investing more time into thinking about our own lives. These visitors are inspiring us to workshop our own humanity.” @DessonT, on the people he’s having in his house while social distancing: motionpictures.org/2020/05/living…



Assuming the great lockdown has helped impose a more patient viewing appetite for "slower" films among us, here's a list of more contemplative, inwardly directed movies I suggested folks might consider getting started with. motionpictures.org/2020/05/set-yo…


Well, they haven't made a bobblehead out of me yet. That's for people who really make a difference like Dr. Fauci. But this mini profile on my high school alum website was a nice little moment. freemens.org/alumniofthemon…


Looking for some interesting movies and TV series to watch during these trying times? Based on a few (oh maybe 22 or 23) years of movie reviewing and a whole lotta couch-sitting, here's what I wrote for MPA's The Credits. motionpictures.org/2020/03/our-in…


Her first spoken words: Put a skirt on, Mom! Wrote this piece about Rachel Apatoff, an aspiring costume designer, and how her still growing career has been affected by covid-19. motionpictures.org/2020/03/an-asp…

Greta Gerwig’s @LittleWomen is a great film for many reasons — including the way it explains intellectual property rights. Ahead of #WorldIPDay this Sunday, @motionpictures’ own @DessonT explores how one scene spells out the importance of copyright: motionpictures.org/2020/04/let-jo…

Terrific portrait of MPA Chairman and CEO, Charlie Rivkin, and the work he does with a deep rooted, informed and connected team to enshrine and protect the rights of creativity itself.

Really enjoyed talking with #ChrisWallace on @FoxNewsSunday about the work we're doing at @motionpictures and the state of the dynamic film/TV/streaming industry.

It’s inspiring to work at @MotionPictures here at our DC hq amid the props of iconic movies that exude the magic of our industry. Each day I’ll share a new one! As we start the #WorldSeries, it seems right to show #AnnCusack's outfit from #ALeagueofTheirOwn. @SonyPictures

As someone who loves a metaphor, from the most inspired to the downright tortured, I just love to listen to Montana Tech's #BobGreen's images and expressions. They seem to just well out of him like, well, don't get me started on one of them metaphors!

This is by far the funniest coach in college football history. Ladies and gentlemen, Montana Tech's Bob Green.
