About Me

My photo
-alex
Mostly SAHM with two boys and a husband who is much happier living in the U.S. I used to teach English to preschoolers, 5th and 6th graders and pharmaceutical employees and do English storytime at the public library. I have one screenplay written. It's a romantic comedy that is neither romantic nor comedic. Still working on the second one. First one is in a moving box somewhere. I hope someday that someone who is a cross between Hayao Miyazaki and Satoshi Kon will want to make my second screenplay into an animated feature.
