The Woodcrest Neighborhood Watch Character Bible
349005378407Written before The Boondocks ever aired, this collection of original character bios—absurd, satirical, and deeply specific—was part of Yamara Taylor’s early creative process.
The tone, the quirks, the worldview—all of it eventually seeped into the show’s DNA when she joined the writing staff. These pieces didn’t land her the job, but they revealed a voice sharp enough to earn it. A few made it to air. The rest lived quietly in a drawer for 20 years.
The Woodcrest Neighborhood Watch Character Bible is a petty dossier of the world’s most dramatic children, delusional neighbors, and etiquette extremists. It’s part police blotter, part diary, part love letter to the chaos that shaped her writing career.
Now, for the first time, she’s releasing the whole archive. Not the show. Not the scripts. The stuff behind the scripts:
⚠️ Unused character profiles
⚠️ Petty neighborhood complaints
⚠️ Surveillance photos
⚠️ Fake warnings, Playbills, and incident reports
It’s like if the HOA had beef with every neighbor in Woodcrest and decided to leak their ridiculous intel.
Includes:
- Illustrated bios
- Fake archival materials & school records
- The story behind the story: how this mess became a job
It’s a love letter to chaotic first drafts, neurodivergent comedy, and the wildness of having a voice before you knew it was one.
With visual gags, stylized art, and unapologetic side-eyes, this book is for writers, weirdos, animation fans, and anyone who’s ever felt like the only sane person at a PTA meeting.
