Jill's Story

This past decade, I've been writing screenplays. I've written six screenplays and two TV sitcoms. I'm suing a studio for plagiarizing what used to be the number one TV show. Funny, because when I was selling it, I pitched it saying it would be a number one show. I know we were taught otherwise in grade school but, fascism still exists. In America today, more than at any other time, the government routinely denies us our Constitutional right to a jury trial. Yes, it's routine. It's just a step in the judicial process to kick you out of the system so that you cannot get justice. It makes it oh so easy to pick our pockets that way. They can charge you an arm and a leg and do enslave you with exhorbitant attorney's fees. You attorney essentially becomes a 50/50 partner whether you want him to be or not. Take a lesson from me as I've learned firsthand through my experience as a screenplay writer suing for plagiarism. Don't be fooled.

f my years writing full scripts until the greedy pay me for the work they've stolen already from me. I think when the movie "Predator" was made, the writer was talking about someone in Hollywood. My career in film began when I met a producer of the movie "City Slickers." He asked me to be in it. He gave me his card saying, "Call me in my limo." I didn't call, but in that moment, I decided to become a producer. I'm currently teaching myself to play the piano. It's given me an appreciation for classical music, that has only developed just now. I've made a CD of some original songs I wrote. I've performed them in public, but, no, I won't be trying out for "American Idol" - that's not for me. Two different bands let me take the stage in their place while they were on a break. Once at an industry party and the other time at a restaurant where I had to promise to tone down my curse words in my lyrics first though. I have three keyboards and three guitars, one electric and two acoustic. I've been playing piano at retirement centers. They are such a good audience mainly because they can't escape.
