I realize that I am just not the frequent-updater-type-guy. I’m not going to become that guy and I have decided to embrace it. There was one driving reason I started this thing in the first place: Self Promotion. I started this blog so folks visiting my acting site would see some new information of how industrious and committed I am to my acting career. The latest update would appear in a window on the front page and impress the hell out of you. I am still driving forward on my career, training and networking and working, but I’m not going to share the minutiae and details with the public-at-large. When I have something I want everyone to know I will share it, until then I will spare you the little stuff.

Thanks!

I’ve learned that having a static blog for too long makes visitors wonder if the site is still maintained, if the actor is still working. One option some fellow web site owners suggested is taking down the blog if it’s not updated frequently enough. I’ve decided to try a different tactic, and that is to update weekly even if there isn’t BIG NEWS to share.

Last night I was invited to a New Year’s party that was “Off The F’ing Hook” but only knew a couple of people there and was afraid I would be out of place. Sure enough everyone seemed to know everyone while I clung to my small party, but as the night went on I met several people in the exact same boat as me. By the start of 2010 I had some new friends and had a great time! It’s not the first time I’ve gone to a networking event or party and learned that I was far from the only person in the room that was feeling like an outsider.

It was also nice to finally meet David Kroll, a fellow actor who I’ve been cast with several times but just never got to share the set with. In “Memory“  we never met even though we are in the same film. In the set of a commercial we shot together we were in different spots and had no time to be social in the studio. Funny how that works sometimes.
