10.5.19 Best day of my entire life. You’re magic @jeffreydeanmorgan 💖💖💖
The sweetest man. I played @valkilmerofficial ‘s girlfriend in a movie back in 2009. The script called for us to have a fairly rowdy love scene that got interrupted by a phone call. I’d just come off of OTH where I was always put in some kind of compromising position….so it was just work as usual. But then I got to set the day we were going to be shooting that scene and there was a scramble happening. “Val wants to change the scene.” Huh? “It’s not interesting,” he said. A gratuitous sex scene with a younger woman didn’t service the story or the character. It said nothing about the relationship and why either of our characters were in it. Instead, Val sent someone out to a local restaurant to pick up a huge tub of ribs. And so, as the camera panned up from the floor, our moans were those of two people, comfortable and indulgent, tangled up in bed and unfettered by the mess, elbows deep in North Carolina’s finest bbq. It was infinitely more interesting and I felt so safe and cared for by that man. It would have been easy to phone it in and just go with the stereotypical way women have been seen in film. Rather than the scene playing on my naked back, he turned me toward the camera. He made the scene about us instead of using me as a prop. That one day at work rewired my brain. Val was kind to me. A thoughtful artist. I bought some of his paintings a few years back. I hope every young actor has a Val in their life. That movie was a magical experience. #bloodworth
I love this dude. At home. At work. At the grocery store. (Seriously, he’s the most fun to grocery shop with). One day we’ll do a show together. Putting it out into the universe. Until then, I’ll pop in any damn time he wants. 💕💕💕 @jeffreydeanmorgan #neganandlucille #truelove #deadcity #thewalkingdead
Hey! What are you doing October 11th?? The correct answer is dropping everything and getting to @bardavonpresents in Poughkeepsie to help me celebrate the @eleanorrooseveltcenter Banned Book Awards, presented by @penamerica . I can’t tell you what an honor it is to be invited to share the stage with these celebrated writers. The banning of books has skyrocketed in recent years, and it is more important than ever that we create a vocal and visible resistance to censorship and oppression. With a keynote being given by @jenniferfinneyboylan and @therealmargaretatwood (I am freaking out !) in attendance to receive a lifetime achievement award, I am so looking forward to these conversations and messages of hope and commitment to freedom. Support for @penamerica is vital in our fight against censorship. So get your tickets on their website and come participate in an evening of rebellion, mischief and bravery. 📕📗📘📙 https://pen.org/event/the-eleanor-roosevelt-banned-book-awards-2025/

Story time. I had this book – Motor Spirit by Jarett Kobeck – recommended to me some years back. It was a deep dive into the Zodiac Killings. After a sordid youth spent studying crime and violence and trying to make sense of it, I’d grown weary of true crime books that make money at the expense of the real victims. If there’s no advocacy, what’s the point? But this book was different. Kobeck was a relentless and outside-of-the-box researcher, and I appreciated the thoughtfulness and intelligence behind the very new theories he presented. So when my friend @rabiasquared2 invited me on her podcast @rabiaandellyn to discuss a case, I jumped at the opportunity to discuss Motor Spirit and its sequel How to Find Zodiac. My fandom paid off. Jarett and I got in touch and started discussing the case (which means I just asked 8 billion questions and he very patiently answered.) Rabia had us BOTH on a follow up episode, where Jarett gave updates on the investigation. I was like an excited kid bringing a parent to career day. “Tell em about the fanzines! Oh oh, tell em about the Ren Faire!” IYKYK. And so in the last couple years, I continue to gift his books to people and keep hoping there are ways for us to work together in the future. So color me flabbergasted this morning when I hear that my old pal SOLVED THE KRYPTOS CODE! If you don’t know what that is? Have fun with that rabbit hole. But seriously. That’s just insane. Jarett worked with a friend of his and solved this decades long mystery. And so I’m gonna spend my Friday night checking out this interview he did with @zona.motel . The world can be dark and cold and overwhelming. So make a point of meeting interesting people and telling them you like their work and then cheering for them. Jarett. Whatever you’re solving next, I want in. Bigfoot? 👣
