Hey Friends,

I spoke with my dear friend and former roommate, writer, Audrey Shulman. I enjoyed the rare opportunity to ask nosey questions about her career and get some honest advice for want-to-be screenwriters. You can read the whole interview here.

Audrey with her book of essays and recipes that led to her first major motion picture, and much like Julie & Julia, it all started as a blog!

❝

I hope something I write will one day change someone’s mind, or introduce them to a new perspective, or just inspire them in even some small way.

Audrey and me in our Hollywood roommate era, 2009.

We talk about her early influences, transitioning from Hallmark Channel originals to legit Movie writer, and why you should plan to spend at least ten years in LA if you want to be a screenwriter.

❤️ What I’m Digging

🏠 Home - The Rhode collaboration from West Elm is so good.

🎵 Music - Late to the party, but listening to Chappell Roan on repeat.
