Today was the WGA/SAG Solidarity Rally @ Fox Studios and there was a pretty good turn out. I actually saw several actors I knew from auditioning and workshops. It was great to see actors there today because the writers need and appreciate our support. I’ve tried to devote time out there on the picket lines because I think it’s important for me to not just “take” from this career, but also “give” something to it for those who will follow in my footsteps. All the perks of being a working actor didn’t come easy so I do it in honor of those who did it before me.

I often speak of how much I hate “networking”, but I love organic encounters. I had an organic encounter on the picket lines with writer Janet Lin, staff writer for “Bones”. Janet wrote my character, Darwin Banks, and the episode of “Bones” that I appeared in. I can’t think of a better way to run into her considering the circumstances – very natural, very organic. I didn’t have to “work it”; I just suck at that. I was a great, productive day and I feel like I am part of something big and extremely important.
