The Wild Sonnets | Poetry

In 2015, I started writing The Wild Sonnets – a contemporary variation of the traditional form comprised of two seven-line stanzas, each capped with a couplet. Since then, I have written over 250 of the poems, published two volumes of a hundred poems each, and collected these into a digital eBook edition – available here. I have also recorded video readings of the poems, which have been posted to both my Instagram and YouTube feeds.

The Lives and Legends of Allegoria | Film

Starting in 2020, I will be producing an animated film series set in the imaginary European city of Allegoria – a modern place of myth and magic, hilarity and heartbreak. A combination of magical realism, verse dialogue, commedia dell’arte and contemporary sensibilities – the intent will be to create something colorful, cool and instantly classic.
