Hello

I’m Frankie

I come up with ideas.
Sometimes funny ones.
Sometimes heartfelt ones.
Sometimes stupidly fun ones.
I got into this business to make people feel something (hopefully good but I'm open to all emotions).

When I’m not writing, I’m watching movies. Lots of them. And logging them on Letterboxd. And when I'm not watching movies, I'm curating playlists on my Spotify in a series I call Now That's What Frankie Calls Music. As I write this, I'm up to vol 86. And when I'm not doing that, I'm probably sleeping.

Give me a nudge to see if I'm breathing, because I usually get my best ideas at bedtime.
