5.15.26 BEN Q

HAPPY FRIDAY from LA.

.

We’ve now officially wrapped photography on HEADLOCK!

.

We had our last shoot day here in California on Wednesday, and man does it feel great to have it entirely shot.

.

I’ll be here on the west coast for a bit to catch up with friends - and of course do some shooting for DIRTY LITTLE FRIDAYS - then it’s back to NYC to start on the editing process.

.

I’m not gonna lie, NYC in the summer is not really my favorite.

But editing in Maine or LA isn’t really an option for my editor, so NYC it is.

.

There’s something I do love about the consistent routine of ‘going to the office’ every day to work.

Even if ‘the office’ is just a dedicated corner of my apartment like it will be on this project.

.

Editing is the only time in my life where it feels like I have a ‘normal’ job.

Five (sometimes six) days a week of same place, same time, consistent work.

It’s really great for building routines.

I know my editor is hoping to go to hot yoga a couple times a week, so who knows, maybe I’ll embrace the swampy NYC summer heat and just become a hot yoga devotee.

What do you think of Ben Q?

I know the og Ben is an all-time favorite (of mine and yours) and I was super excited that he was able to come out to LA to do a small part in HEADLOCK as one of the BRUISER BOYS…

More on the BRUISER BOYS later...

.

.

As usual, thanks for being here. I really do appreciate it.

See you next week.

Carter.

P.S.

While you wait for the BACKWOODS BOYS zines, you can get my first lil pornzine 52 FRIDAYS here.
