Hi Alicia McClendon - Killings of the Land is great! Loved how it was shot and you got terrific performances. Didn't see that ending coming (won't spoil it for others but wow). Awesome work. Wishing you huge success with it.

You, the cast, and crew did great, Alicia McClendon! The song that plays at the start is creepy! Can't wait for part two! This is my new favorite short film series!

Hello, Alicia. I am an American writer in London, England. I have had a few plays on stage here and the last one has been translated into German and Russian. I came close to a Hollywood production some time back, involving some of the biggest names in show business. Among other scripts and projects, I have the story of LOU, lead part in a political thriller drama in a country that resembles the United States. It features a stolen presidential election that will make some people think of the Supreme Court in a country resembling the United States. LOU is an intern with a corporate media network, and discovers and realises the corruption in high places that all her fellow citizens should know about. Her task if to find the way to make everyone aware of what is going on in their country. THE MESS WE'RE IN goes some way, I think, in dramatizing the start of our current and developing malaise. Please get in touch if you think you may be interested in LOU and the project. Thanks and best wishes. Dale Reynolds writdale@gmail.com

Karen "Kay" Ross Hi Karen! I write many genres, but if I had to choose, I would say that it is my preferred outside of fantasy! What inspires my work is being able to entertain, educate, and inspire audiences with stories about strong yet flawed black women! Thank you!
