Pharrell Responds To Chad Hugo’s Lawsuit Over Withheld Money Allegations
It’s always been the business of show. Money will continue to be the sticking point for all creation as long as there’s a market for entertainment. In music in particular, this rings truest. Pharrell Williams has been caught in the crosshairs by former friend and music partner Chad Hugo. In his claim against Williams, Hugo has alleged that the “Alright” producer owes him at least three hundred thousand dollars. That figures balloons to a million dollars as the residuals come into view over the work they did with N.E.R.D. album No One Really Dies (2017).

Marty Supreme: Movie Review
Marty Supreme presents itself as a sports film, but it isn’t really about victory, legacy, or even competition. It’s a hyper focused character study of an athlete whose entire sense of self is tied to proving his superiority even when the proof is unnecessary, humiliating, or already lost.

For Boo
It had been a restless sleep the night prior, the same it had been for weeks. The silence that swallowed the bedroom had been far too loud, the sheets far too heavy, the air far too thick, and everything just felt far too wrong. Sleep had failed to settle into her bones that night, and it had led her into a foot dragging day.

Published: Finally
Hi everyone! You may remember that I was STOKED about finally finishing my novel (I want to say my first novel, but really I have a myriad of unfinished novels). This will be my first very long FINISHED work! While I was excited to work with agents, unfortunately, that was not the roadmap for this novel, which in some ways I am grateful for and in others I am sad. Regardless, we press forward and never allow ourselves too long to mope. I have the ebook available and would LOVE if you considered buying it and rating it when you finish! I had to use a pen name due to the nature of my work!
