4/ These last 125 days have borne a twice-drafted pilot. My first short film, two new pilot outlines, and more progress on finally cracking feature films than I've ever had.

I'm on the path, better than I realise. Onwards.

But for now, I'm off to get married.

3/ I've also learned that no one finds their voice on the first try. It's a melting pot of inspiration, failures, blue-sky thinking, and more failures.

Be patient. Be kind. Be ready when the wave comes.

2/ I've learnt the value of seeing tangible progress. For all the internal motivation we have to battle the blank page, there is nothing quite as rewarding as seeing the words flow.

When all else fails, you write, then if that fails, write some more.

That's it - I had a note from a producer last year which basically amounted to "You're a skilled writer for someone who only writes to 50% of your ability."

Felt like I was playing it safe - time to take some swings.

Damn - just a bit on your plate. I'm sure you'll find the right path.

Trying to figure out how to thread the eye of a needle.

Outlining two new pilots - both are balancing either multiple characters or timelines.

It's proving difficult, but I need to stretch myself and see what I'm capable of.

Yourself?

I have a bad habit of wild jumps.

WW2 Espionage
Gold Rush Western
Post Katrina Cop Dram

Workshopping a 1970s Hollywood murder mystery.

Whiplash inducing somedays.

Nearly close to the end of my western pilot. Final outline on a new pilot also done - inspired by the case to catch the serial killer that struck New Orleans post Katrina.

Inching forward.
