Why Wiked: For Good is Undeservingly the ‘worse movie’
So… off the bat, we’re about to delve into something ridiculous. Just so we’re clear on that, ok? The first thing anyone that knows a thing about these dual movies… knows… is the original movie and sequel were shot together.

The Black Scotland I Never Knew
As most will know who follow my work, I’m rather fond of being Scottish. While it’s not a kind of horrific patriotism that puts other nations down, it is a sense of pride that I was born here.

Chronic Ache in the Soul of a Single Parent
There is a chronic ache in the soul of a single parent. It lingers, feeling endless. This ache feels so difficult, especially when you look at other families. They seem so… whole. They seem so joyful and complete. There is a husband and a wife and children in a stroller. Thinking about your single state, you realize how awkward you feel, how out of place at various functions and gatherings. They are all happily together and you’re miserably alone. Disappointment with the current life circumstances just settles in to stay, or so it feels. How could these layers of disappointment be broken up anyhow?

The lights are dim, but from some obscure place out of my vision a candle burns bright, casting its flickering warmth over the desk in front of me. I can hear the rain, pitter and patter against the small windows placed deep into the walls around me.

We Will Bury You. Content Warning.
How do you deal with the vast disappointment and anger and rage and grief and rage and RAGE and RAGE and RAGE when a community icon, who did so much to help your gente, is found to be the type of monster that still makes me believe in capital punishment?

Thief In The Night
To the thief in the night that took and replicated what once was mine: Honestly, I feel kind of bad for you. It’s funny, because we hardly know each other. I only know of you through the magazines you’ve written and the broadcasts you have televised in the past — as well as through the public mentions of you from your show business connections there.
