Trick’s on my “smart” watch. It started recording a workout, but I was just walking into a donut shop.

Fingers crossed this week, my script is getting reads at studios!

It’s bittersweet as I head to the theatre to watch a killer unicorn movie…

My Murderhorn screenplay will live on in my own head.

I just realized why I haven’t been very active on Bluesky. I had left it on light mode, dark mode’s so much better. Now I’m ready to find my friends.

The James Webb telescope just discovered a 13 billion year old galaxy named Firefly Sparkle. And I just discovered what my new screenwriting pen name should be.

All of my screenplays are tragedies #scriptsky

What’s your Christmas screenplay about? #scriptsky

I was to start a Pacific Northwest Pulp Fiction Enthusiasts Club (PNWPFEC)

But I don’t want to put any effort into it, so it’ll probably just be me drinking a beer and reading a book somewhere rainy.

I just want an echo chamber where I post something about writing and see posts about writing back

Many years ago after I wrote my first (terrible) screenplay, I swear I checked my email every two minutes waiting to be discovered. Now I only check every five minutes.

#scriptsky Advice needed. What’s the best comfort food for receiving another pass on a screenplay?

(I’d love a sticky toffee pudding, but it’s not readily available)

Started the week with two passes from production companies who both thought my script was “wild and fun” but didn’t fit their current slate.

Holding out hope! #scriptsky

My social media skills seriously mildewed over the past two years. So…

how about a picture of my dog as a writer? #scriptsky

Patient screenwriters should wait 6-8 weeks to hear back from a pitch. I’ve been waiting over five years to hear back about some of my scripts.

Oh wow, I just found a bunch of old friends on #scriptsky

Getting all emotional over here.

I need to focus back on writing, to take my mind off of… recent events.

Revisiting a screenplay with a concept so off-the-wall that not only did my co-writer use a pseudonym but I used a pseudonym for my pseudonym

Mixed emotions…

knowing that an absolute legend will be pitched my screenplay this weekend and he’ll know my name!

…then remembering that the cover pages says: Written by Fruitbat.

Which are better, killer shark movies or killer crocodile movies?

I’m going with piranha.

I really thought I’d finally quit screenwriting this time, but I have one more in me. I’m thinking an action thriller called Double Indemnity 3: Triple indemnity.
