I watched the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special from ‘73 for @scarymommy and let’s just say… Snoopy deserves better. And it would serve the Peanuts gang well if they had some parental guidance.

I decorated my apartment tonight for Christmas. I love Christmas. I love my Christmas tree. It’s small but it’s beautiful. Christmas is the best. So are Christmas martinis. This might explain my caption and my reel. Or not. I’m just here to say… Decorate your home. It doesn’t matter how small it is. Christmas is great. So are Christmas martinis.🍸 🎄

Only children get a bad rap — even if more couples are opting for having a single child more than ever. As an only child I’m here to break the stigma that we are just a bunch of lonely spoiled brats who don’t know how to share and let you know that only children grow up to be pretty great. Except maybe for the sharing part, that’s true. Link in writing highlights or visit @scarymommy

What does it really feel like to be a working actor and creator? Well, I got into it with my friends @jhenrygillich and @_mostafashaker on the latest episode of @doyoupod. We talked about the crippling anxiety — and the thrill — of being a creator. We also talked about the hustle and grind that happens behind the scenes. The importance of creating your own stories. And Lizzo.

Another season, another dating trend to be aware of. This time it’s snow globing ⛄️. Brrrrr. Basically, if your relationship moves up a few notches over the holidays and then freezes out post-New Year’s, you’ve been snow globed ❄️

Back in 2010 I wrote a play about John Mayer. It played at the inaugural Hollywood Fringe Festival @hollywoodfringe. It was called Back to You. I almost cringe at it now… but it was my original third play. I was still finding my voice.

Anyway. I was inspired by Mindy Kaling’s Matt & Ben (and my huge crush on the singer), it was a satirical look at John’s tabloid mess and his attempt to reclaim his image while finding love with his childhood sweetheart (who just happened to be played by moi).

Truthfully, the play was OK. Not great. I think it had its moments but overall mediocre. I think the best review it received was, “Brianne told the story she needed to tell.”

The production and BTS was a whole other can of worms. I think there was this underpinning hope that somehow we would get a lot of attention for the play. We did not.

Thank god.

Timing is everything when it comes to life, and artistry. Not everything we create is IT, the THING. and I think that’s the point. Creativity is truly about the process… we don’t have control of how the finished work will be received, and sometimes the work won’t be what we thought it would be. It’ll be just OK. Maybe even mediocre. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth trying or doing. It just means you keep trying and you keep creating… because it’s the story YOU need to tell.

And maybe you find another muse. I still 🫶you, John!

A couple of years ago I wrote about windmills and wildlife for @bbc. It was a bucket list byline for me and somehow they bought my first pitch. It was the most research-driven (and scientific) piece I’ve ever written. So many times I fought imposter syndrome. Could I really write a piece like this? A year ago, I received an email from a student at the University of Toronto who shared with me that my article was being taught in class on how to properly and effectively use citations.
Not bad for a self-taught journalist. 😛
Lesson learned: say yes, and figure it out later. You’re probably doing a lot better than you think you are. 🌲

Writing my first book was a surprise! It all start

Writing my first book was a surprise! It all started with an email from Adams Media…that landed in my spam folder. When I first started my freelance writing career this month back in 2010, I didn’t know my love for writing about relationships and astrology would land me my first book deal and literary agent. But here we are. Whenever I feel confused about my life’s direction, I’m reminded that when I just create from a place of pure joy without any expectations…the universe will always deliver. And also, check your spam folder!
