BLIND PURSUIT debuts on THE RED LIST
I crafted the latest draft of BLIND PURSUIT with the help of the amazing Janet Jeffries of Lawrence Bender.
I love how my script reads now. I expect even better things to come!
Thank you, Janet!

Another Sundance Certificate
I entered this eight week class with a sketchy vision of my zany, crime-drama, darkly comedic one-hour TV pilot Texoma Shrooms and came out with a full outline!
Sundance continues to help me.
Thank you Vanessa Matsui for your incredible notes and Angela LaManna for fun and thorough teaching.

TOO MUCH AIR and NYC Midnight
My short screenplay TOO MUCH AIR has advanced to the next round of NYC Midnight Short Screenplay Challenge
“TOO MUCH AIR” by Debi Yazbeck
LOGLINE – Live, love, laugh — even laugh last. But always watch your back.
This was really fun to create and write. I’m excited for my next set of prompts Saturday morning.
What craziness can I devise next… hmmm?

Long Lost
How did I lose this?!
No matter – Max graciously sent me a new one.
Thank you, Max Adams and the Academy of Film Writing!
Hugs and kisses to you, Max. You laid the foundation and helped me grow as a screenwriter way past anything I ever dreamed.
This certificate means so much to me and will hang on my wall of fame.
