Hey y’all, I’m Allyson from Tulsa — born and raised in the historic Black Wall Street community. My storytelling is rooted in the people, humor, and everyday truth of North Tulsa and Black Oklahoma. I’m a screenwriter focused on creating original, culturally grounded work that actually sounds like us. My current project, Fish & Grits, is a character‑driven series inspired by the world I grew up in.I’m here to connect with creatives who value authenticity, collaboration, and stories built from real places and real people.
Hi Allyson - welcome to the group, I love the focus of your work, sounds very interesting.
Hi Allyson, it’s great to come across a storyteller so deeply connected to her roots. I’m always drawn to projects that capture authentic voices and lived experiences rather than stereotypes. Fish & Grits sounds like the kind of character-driven work that actors love to sink their teeth into. I’d love to hear more about your vision and the journey behind the series, your perspective on North Tulsa and Black Oklahoma sounds genuinely compelling.
