So I only got a certain amount made. 400 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 3: And obviously I think I had got like a couple 401 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 3: of hundred. Obviously they all sold out. They sold out, 402 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 3: and I was really overwhelmed, and I told myself I 403 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 3: was going to change the design and then and then 404 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 3: I was like, okay, well, I'm just gonna sell I'm 405 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 3: just gonna sell posters, and said, so I had posters 406 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 3: and I would just sign those and I would give 407 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 3: them away.

I'll tell you something. I always tell 450 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: people that go show you you fortunate to either build 451 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: a lot of great careers or have been around people 452 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 1: who are talents who are not great. I always tell people, 453 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 1: you cannot win a Kentucky Derby with a mirror. Okay, 454 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: they got to be thoroughbreds. They got to be able 455 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: to be able to run that race. And that's what 456 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: you are. You a thoroughbred. And I know from my 457 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,640 Speaker 1: background research on you, you're willing to do the work. 458 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: So what is the big goal for you? My friend? 459 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 3: Honestly? And this is and I tell people this and 460 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 3: they think it's funny, but I say that when I 461 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 3: can no longer do all the things that I have 462 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 3: to be attractive for pretty, for whatever, and I want 463 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 3: to be behind the scenes. You know. Writing is probably 464 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 3: one of my first loves because I used to journal 465 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 3: a lot when I was young, and I used to 466 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 3: write poetry as a child, and you know, as a 467 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 3: teenager when I started like you know, getting into relationships 468 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 3: and things like that. So writing is probably one of 469 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 3: my first loves up there with acting and things. So 470 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 3: but I noticed that, you know, being an attractive black female, 471 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 3: you know, they don't want you to do all the thing. 472 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 4: You know. 473 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 3: But when I'm no longer able to do that, and 474 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 3: I'm playing somebody's mama, and and i just want to 475 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 3: just produce and direct, which I'm I'm already not directing yet, 476 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 3: but I've already been producing in things. So well, you've been. 477 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: Producing all your life. You've been writing all your life, 478 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: you know. So that's what I get from these characters 479 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: you've created, you know, because they came from somewhere. They 480 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: came from your imagination. But you had to write things. Now. 481 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: You have to get these beats, these rhythms and other 482 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: for they to be manufactured into consistency. Because a lot 483 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 1: of people think that it's off the top of your 484 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: head because you do it so well. But this is 485 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: something that you've been working on, You've been developing over 486 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: the years. And I would tell you this from a person. 487 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: I started out doing stand up comedy, and I did 488 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 1: deaf Jam. I did all the comedy shows and and 489 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: but writing. When I started writing, my first writing assignment 490 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: was on me and Boars with Steve Harvey, and then 491 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 1: I did The Parents, who was Robert Townsend, and then 492 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: They'd all City or Hall sitcom. And then I did 493 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 1: Sister Sister Tia Tamara Moori, and then I did Jamie 494 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: Fox Show. I was coll executive to do so on 495 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: that show. And then I was a consultant producer on 496 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: The Parkers with Monique And so that whole structure changed 497 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 1: my life because it allowed me to true power. You know, 498 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,479 Speaker 1: I don't care what anybody says. To be able to 499 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: convince somebody thousands of people and in some cases millions 500 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: of people to come back that following week on that 501 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: same time slot on that day, it was really powerful. 502 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: And I realized that that's pretty amazing. And it's pretty 503 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 1: amazing for people to come to a comedy club and 504 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: you sell it out, they walk on stage and they 505 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: waiting on you. That's amazing too. But you have the ability, 506 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: Miss Brown, to be able to do both. And I 507 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: would recommend that you don't let anybody stop you from 508 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: pursuing that because you have been you've been, You've been 509 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: drink me about this all your life. I didn't. God 510 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: just gave me a lot of gifts and I and 511 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 1: somehow I stumble upon being a very talented comedian and 512 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm a hustler. So you give me my foot in 513 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: the door. I'm gonna crack that door wide open and 514 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: see what's on the other side. I'm not afraid. I'm 515 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: not afraid, miss Brown. And so my whole thing with 516 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: you is that don't be afraid. And I know I'm 517 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: not saying anything because you never show fear in your life, 518 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: but you are special.
