To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.
Even though I've only written the first 2 pages of my new project, I'm already going back and rewriting them
'cause I thought of a way to make them better, of course

Had a great talk w/author Zeeva Bukai (THE WORLD BETWEEN) on @podcastcwl.bsky.social about the intimacy of a first person narrative, discovering the character’s objective, writing as an actor, and the relevance of the 100-page mark

The latter half of Act Two and most of Act Three are far from complete, but I started on pages of the action-comedy spec
2 pages in, and I am confident this is going to be a FUN ride

😕 🍪
After much stress and frustration, I think I've finally made some decent progress on the story for my new spec
Bonus - might even take a stab at the first few pages to see if I can really capture the desired vibe

Which one did you have in mind? R&GM?
“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue."
A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.
I recently picked up the TPB
Loved it
Why this hasn't gotten more attention remains a mystery
The Epstein War is costing Americans $11,500 PER SECOND.
I don’t EVER want to hear another fucking Conservative say we can’t afford universal healthcare.
Bye-bye, blue birdie

Looking for some writing gig work. If anyone has any leads, I would be grateful.
My job was recently terminated, so in need of something to help me get through til another job lines up, or I get published.
There are many low budget films that made its money back and launched careers of actors.
Sling Blade with Billy Bob Thornton. Rocky with Sylvester Stallone. Creep. The Blair Witch Project. Paranormal Activity.
Invest in the feature film, The Woman Who Knows.

You ever notice that the people always questioning AOC’s intelligence (who worked her way through college and graduated with honors), never question the intelligence of Trump no matter how idiotic his statements or actions are?
A great talk w/author Maureen Devlin (LET’S GO BACKER AND BACKER!) on @podcastcwl.bsky.social about the challenge of writing for kids, opening eyes and ears, instilling a love of learning, and embracing your creative impulses

My Twitter account has been suspended b/c of "Violating our rules against inauthentic accounts."
I was hacked, and all attempts to get it fixed have been for naught
Maybe it's time to step away completely

For those still connected to me over on X, my account was hacked a few days ago
Trying to fix it, but it's taking way longer than expected

Not someone texting me about my crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo. I still need to know how they got my number.
Anyway, crowdfunding for a mystery psychological thriller that shines light on disability, mental health, and chronic and invisible illness. Support!

Read a couple of scripts by a well-known pro writer
Very different premises/concepts, but each had their very distinct style & voice, plus high-quality, page-turning storytelling
I heartily embrace the challenge to step up my game

I've been going through my "Scripts to read" folder, catching up on long overdue reads
Some pros, some chums, some "hey, saw you talking about this online. Could I read it?"
For a screenwriter, reading a well-written script is bliss
