Author, screenwriter, and former standup comic. You know, an indoor kid. Still pretty jazzed about that Galaga high score in 1985.
Had the good fortune to meet a lot of great people and have some good conversation. Closing out a wonderful first day of #StokerCon with ~300 words on a short story. #horror #writer

I don’t usually post my con schedules, but I can tell you that my days are typically filled with new people, sharing and learning, and consuming a number of Pringles that some consider shocking. #StokerCon #horror #writer #screenwriter #scriptsky

Enjoyed seeing these scripts in person. Sadly, we couldn’t flip through them. Or take them home… #scriptsky

If you haven’t already experienced it, there will be times in life when a voice from your past (whom you haven’t been in touch with in a long time) will speak some uncomfortable truth and remind you where you stand. The lesson: be humble.

Setup the tree today. I suppose you can tell what kind it is… (some dad jokes refuse to go away) #scriptsky #pinetree

First fire of the season lit and toes warmed. Now if I could only arrange several inches of snow to accompany my #WIP and #TBR. #scriptsky #booksky #author #writer

Just finished season two of Netflix’s “The Diplomat.” Wow! It’s a must watch if you’re into really great writing and equally fantastic performances #thediplomat #scriptsky

Introduce yourself with four albums. Gah! Only four? Okay...

Love this on so many levels. #writersky #booksky #scriptsky
Write that book. Send that story. Query that agent. Ask for that blurb. Maybe it doesn’t work out, but there’s a chance it will, and that chance—however small you think it is—is all you need.

Sometimes the office feels like a Kubrick film.

Reconnecting with some of my writerly tribe. It’s good to see some familiar faces and meet new friends.

Strong match start, even without Kane. Suspect the boys are giving it a little extra today. COYS!!

Rewatched “Primal Fear” last night and it’s a great example of the overuse of trench coats and forlorn trumpets in 90’s film.

I’m right there with @philmscribe.bsky.social on this. I happen to also be a fan of FC Bayern, so it’s a bit of a lose win situation for me. Still, Spurs matches will never be quite the same without Kane.
Currently looking on the bright side through the stinging pain that could've been far worse if Kane was heading to a PL rival like Man Utd. 😫 Or Chelsea. 🤢 At least we won't have to suffer the ignominy of having Harry line up against us, or score. Not until next season's CL anyway.😉 🤞🏼 #THFC #COYS

Hello! I wrote a thing. About writers! For writers? Or maybe to... explain writers?? I don't know, but here it is.
Forgive The Writers, For We Are So Tired

This is Writer Cat. She suffers no fools and demands words. Lots and lots of words. Sadly, I have none today. I’m terrified…

Here’s hoping. Can’t stand the idea of the Spurs without Kane.
Promising 5-1 win for Tottenham at the HarryKaneWeWantYouTo Stadium*.

Happy to finally be here! Now it’s time to discover who else is here. In celebration, here’s a painting I made during a sip-n-paint. The Empire wasn’t in the original source painting.
