I debated between Quantico's Priyanka Chopra OR The Goodwife's Archie Panjabi for POTUS...Both shows were cancelled and either way I'd get to see one of my South Asian QUEENZ back on that screen 💃 xoxox

Last Tuesday, Daphney Joseph and I participated in FEM Script Lab. Our script was read by some fab actor/actresses and we received very useful feedback from an industry gangster (mentor).
