a webseries

Official selection of the LA Comedy 365 Festival and Indie Shorts Fest
In those beautifully blissful months before the pandemic, the team behind Ghostwritten gathered in an SUV, drove around the tri-state area and filmed this web series in the course of a weekend. The end result is three episodes of a comedic look at artistic desperation, narcissism, and the instinct to substitute attention as therapy. Of all the things on this site, I do hope you watch this project. And if you have extra time, if you wanted to take a look at the sketch I wrote and performed about Sabrina, The Teenage Witch using her powers to give people abortions, I wouldn’t be mad.
