Rethink “Even Big Girls Need Love Too”

January 4, 2014 by Doug Leave a Comment

I’ve heard the titular phrase a lot in my life. Given the wisdom of age, I recognize at least two or three “big girls” from my past who I discounted as potential romantic partners because of the issues addressed by Rachel C Wiley in this powerful, beautiful spoken word piece. Clearly, my loss.

Regardless of our chosen media, we as storytellers have a responsibility to represent the entire human condition, not just those those elements, warped as they are, which sell magazine covers. Filmmaker, photographer or writer, find a place for everyone in your work.

Waifish beauty is an ideal, not the norm. Speak about and to real people.

Instructions For A Bad Day

January 1, 2014 by Doug Leave a Comment

A beautifully crafted short film. Bookmark it and return when life reaches out and punches you in the mouth, knocks you down and tries to keep you there.

Life might be short, but there is always tomorrow. There is always the next moment.

Hope endures.
