My therapist and I talk about a number of different things each week: My childhood; my tendency to compare myself to other people; my severe lack of a sex life. But no topic rears its ugly head in our sessions more than anxiety

Lightbulbs and Such

Last year a story idea popped into my head. I wrote it down and, as time went on and I neglected to flush it out, the idea eventually laid down and took a nap in my subconscious.

Warren & Dominique

An excerpt from “Best Laid Plans,” a pilot I wrote...and am considering making a web series.

The Egg And The Button

A short story I recently crafted for a writing class. Possibly a work in progress.

Line Review

It’s the biggest meeting of the season. Over the past three months last year’s line has been ripped apart and pulled back together again; a phoenix reborn in women’s clothing. New colors and prints…

2019

As I look ahead, with my confidence growing and fucks-to-give depleting, contemplating what I’d like to accomplish this year, I feel more empowered and readier than ever to turn this mutha out!

Minute Free-write

Tibedeaux hated his name. Besides no one ever being able to pronounce it correctly, the name had no meaning. As a man who searched for meaning in everything, this bothered Tibedeaux…

Stop Looking for Cheat Codes

If I’m going to be successful, it’ll be because I’ve forged my own path; not because I’ve taken someone else’s template and run with it. It’s time I build my own.

Declarations

My therapist gave me an interesting homework assignment: Make a list of all the reasons why/ways in which I am “Dope.”

So, How 'Bout That Fettuccine?

It is with great pleasure that I introduce my first short film! I hope you all enjoy it! :)

Mom Dukes For The Win!

As I was trying to decide what to do with my now-defunct “Evolution Of A Man” blog, Mama McNair rang and pulled one hell of an Ace from her sleeve.

writing fearlessly

It all started with a blog called Evolution Of A Man, way back in 2004. I was relatively new to New York, and adulthood, and I wanted a vehicle to keep family and friends back home up to date with all my NYC shenanigans. Enter Blogger.

At first I was fearless: journal-writing about everything from reconciling with my past to conversing with my prostate. Nothing was off limits. Then I hit thirty, became riddled with anxiety (the advent of social media didn't help), and I found myself having to answer the question "WHO AM I?" all over again.

I have the answers now. And, thanks to my therapist, marijuana, and a burgeoning confidence I'd gladly take back to high school, I'm ready to write, fearlessly, once again. Only this time sans the need for a title. Just me: An introspective potty-mouth who loves things that make you fat.

I'm Will McNair. Welcome to my little piece of the Internet.
