Hey @nevslin.bsky.social @travisbeacham.bsky.social when you turned in your first script that got picked up, did you all have a lot of nerves and question if it was ready? I've turned mine in to the Director and I'm so anxious! I know there will be editing and many draft changes, but nerve-wracking.

@travisbeacham.bsky.social Can I ask you a question? When you wrote your first script and turned it in for the first time to somebody who could make your dream a reality, were you nervous and did you ever 2nd guess yourself? I've turned mine into the Director and I am so nervous and worried now!

Hey @travisbeacham.bsky.social, my family is staying a few nights near your old stomping grounds of Cleveland, TN. Staying in Ooltewah for a few to step away from the script writing and take a deep breath. Have you heard of City Cafe Diner in Cleveland?? It's our go-to for breakfast.

Hey @travisbeacham.bsky.social we are watching a random movie called Atlantic Rim. It is clearly a copy of Pacific Rim. Did you have anything to do with this movie??

My #cancer surgery was a SUCCESS!!
The CHAIR of the Surgical Department at Vanderbilt Medical saw my story online and whatnot, so she asked if she could have a selfie.
I felt honored, but let's remember who the real hero is here: the nurses and doctors.
I get to start 2025 CANCER FREE!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS #SCRIPTSKY!!!
I'm spending Christmas with my family in Nashville at a hotel, unfortunately, because I am battling #cancer this #holidayseason.
The doctors allowed me to leave the hospital for a day and a half to celebrate #Christmas w/ my family before my cancer surgery on Thurs 🙏🙏

Hey #scriptsky writers! What advice do you give beginners regarding story block, or writers block?
I tell people to not completely "empty their tank" during a session and stop writing in the middle of a good flow. That way you come back in the middle of a great flow instead of on empty.

I've been sent to the hospital feeling extremely ill battling kidney failure and cancer.
My dream was to be a screenwriter writer at 7yro, but kidney failure took my dreams away through my teens/20s/most of 30s. I finally realized I could turn my pain into passion. Never give up!! ##scriptsky

You all please forgive my ignorance here on BlueSky. I am still learning and trying to figure it out. A very kind man, @nevslin.bsky.social, mentioned something called "starter packages" here on @bsky.app. Can somebody explain what that is? Haha

Who else out there is currently a cancer fighter? I was diagnosed with cancer two weeks ago, all while battling kidney failure and Type 1 diabetes since I was a kid.

A beginner is looking for advice from writers/screenwriters. What would you say.
I would say: Write what you are passionate about. Be descriptive, allow people to see & feel what you do as the writer. If you don't believe in your story, nobody will. #writer #screenwriter #film #books #passion
