#Writers If a plot point in a legal drama turns on something that just wouldn't happen, I think "Nope" and stop watching. Is it necessary for the law parts to be accurate? Does it enhance the story, or does it not matter at all?

#Writers I need help prioritizing. Two screenplays nearly finished, two novels in progress, a stage play, and two dramatic series that I am trying to develop. Ideas galore but trouble focusing. How do you focus on a project and not get distracted by shiny new ideas?

Most of the problem with #tillynorwood is that the media is calling her "AI Actor Tilly Norwood." You validate her by giving her that title. She's a hyperrealistic animation, no different than Marge Simpson. She's a cartoon.
