Update on Uptown Hustle the Movie

I have a few updates since the initial announcement. 

1. There will be a feature film first and then a web series to pick up where the film left off. 

2. The name of the film and series has been changed. I will reveal what it is soon. Probably in my next update.

3. The script is now in its final stages and I will be having a table read in Philadelphia in April 2017. Anyone interested in joining please email literarycandy@gmail.com - Subject: Table Read. 

This is the biggest project I have ever put together thus far. Writing and producing this film is just the beginning of what's to come. Yes, I still have every intention of bringing The Black Magnolia Society to screen, but for now, I had to start with something that could be produced for under $500K. 

New Book Alert: Worth More Than Gold [Coming This Spring]

Uptown Hustle the movie coming soon....

Hello LCB Readers,

Just to catch you up on what I've been working on. I just read a book called "Show Your Work! 10 Ways to Share Your Creativity and Get Discovered " by Austin Kleon, and I was inspired to come out of my cave and show what I've been up to.

First of all let me say, even though I write books, writing a script wasn't an easy process for me. But I'm proud of myself for sticking to it and getting through the process. The story is complete but I still have to add some finishing touches. As you can see, it says sixth draft. Which is the sixth of the final draft for now. This doesn't include the various scripts that were written prior to this.

At one time, I was writing Uptown Hustle as a web series, then a dramatic TV series, until I went all out for a film. It also a new twist that differentiates from the plot of the book. If you've read Uptown Hustle 1 and 2, all of the story lines just wouldn't fit into a film. Nonetheless, I think you will be pleased.

Stay tuned for more updates as I start this new journey.
