Zeekeela, the Weirdo

IMG_5079I may have mentioned before I’m a bit of a weirdo. I create alternative personalities who live lives on their own. I refuse to admit that I’m the same person as these alternative personalities. Unless you consider what I just wrote as an admission. In which case, I vehemently deny what I just wrote.

I’m confused.

The point is, one of these personalities- and arguably my weirdest by far- is a chick named Zeekeela Tloxlan. She thinks she’s an alien. Who goes on missions. And will be sent home once all her missions are complete.

Yep. That’s the gist of it.

This past Labor Day weekend, I got the joy of bringing her to life with a wonderful team of people I am lucky enough to have met who let people like Zeekeela come alive onscreen. We filmed a short documentary about what a day in her life is like. Hint: It’s weird.

Hopefully, I’ll be able to show it to the world soon. Eventually, I would love for Zeekeela to go on “missions” throughout the United States and maybe internationally. She usually believes she’s on a mission when she’s sent outside of Los Angeles anyway. She’s such a friggin’ weirdo.

I’m excited to see the final product. I was lucky to have such a spectacular team involved. I’m always lucky when I get to create because it’s what I love to do most.

Mercury in Retrograde

Friends! Get this! Last night I recorded a vlog. It was late at night. I was exhausted. I was basically explaining better what last week’s post was and the exciting upcoming changes to the Femoir podcast.

I was going to edit it this morning quickly so I could upload it for your viewing pleasure. When I opened up iMovie, it showed my recording but as I attempted to edit and play it back- it showed old recordings from Femoir stuff I thought I’d long since deleted from the computer.

I tried closing and reopening iMovie twice. Nothing changed. I tried playing around with settings and manipulating it. Nothing happened. I could hear my recording from last night, but I could only see other odd stuff.

To be honest- the recording wasn’t my best work anyway. So I decided to blame it all on Mercury in Retrograde

And to tell you that podcast changes are happening. Slowly but surely.

November’s podcasts will be excerpts from the novel I’m writing for NaNoWriMo.

December, we’ll start our new adventures as podcast buddies together.
