"The label you give yourself cannot impact external forces that are not motivated by your own psychology or influenced by a third party's pre-existing consciousness of you. We are all presented with reasons to struggle which come from completely external forces; to pretend that one is not struggling is either arrogance or an admission of defeat. To admit that one is struggling is a sign and a source of strength." - Evan A. Baker

I Need Your Help

Hi!

I need your help.

I have been writing this blog, helping new actors get their bearings in LA and understand the Hollywood system, for free as a labor of love, since 2009. That's 8 years. 8 years of sharing my struggle, my insight, my advice, without taking any of your money, just because I wished there was a resource like this when I came out here.

I've written a pilot. It's good. It's also sexy! And a friend of mine with a development deal (with two celebrities attached, so you know, he's kind of a big deal) liked my pilot so much that he offered to help me create a presentation for it and use his contacts around town to help me pitch it to studios.

I Need Your Help to Raise Money for the Pilot Presentation.

Please check out my Kickstarter page.

If you would like to thank me for helping you navigate Actors Access, or how to take great Headshots, or even how to audition for the CBS Diversity Sketch Show, and want to donate a few bucks (or you know, a thousand; no judgement!), I would gladly take it and give you a big virtual hug, as well as whatever incentives you got.

Include a message in the notes section that you're donating because you saw this post and are thanking me for helping you.

I'll thank you right back.

with love and gratitude,
Lira
