Catch up on the latest that's going on with me and stay for a few stories! Fighting Olympus, the film by Julian V. Hampton, and which I helped produce, script supervise, and even had a small acting part in; won Best Feature Film on June 10, 2022 at the National Black Film Festival! I provide a fairly in depth background of Greek Mythology and gods. You know, if Hades had given Persephone a cheeseburger, instead of pomegranate seeds; he'd have had his way.
While we're talking about wins, hear about how I doubled my money on a lotto ticket; and how that led me on a circuitous course to Fibonacci sequencing and critical thinking fallacies. Is there a mathematician in the house?!
