Writer of scripts and novels. Nothing out in the world yet. Hoping to change that very soon!
Putting my first short script into production and I am terrified. The imposter syndrome is real.

The state of the world and especially this country and the misinformation influence on elder generations is so fucking heavy on my soul. I spend a lot of my time feeling frozen or playing Stardew Valley. I'd really like to write again but fuuuuuuuuuuuck.

When someone says to you "I prefer (a) but I can do (a and b)" do you assume that person will only do (a)?

My life just took a severe dip into the twilight zone. My first impulse? To write about it. Naturally.

Christmas time brings out the crooners singing the classics. It made me wonder: Who would be in your modern-day Rat Pack?
So far I have John Legend and Michael Buble.

Been quiet, but I've been working on my writing habits. I've been told that sometimes 15 minutes a day is all it takes. It doesn't seem like enough time.

What's your favorite *legit and safe* place to get free scripts?
I'm looking for animated short scripts as inspo for a secondary idea I'm toying with.

It's an added benefit of the passion. You learn about so much you wouldn't have ever stepped in otherwise.

For those of you already on it, be sure to make a list of the writers in this pack so we can pester each other.

I love when a research rabbit hole is inspiring. Could be deep, could be shallow, doesn't matter. It just takes that one little aha. #writesky #writersky #scriptsky

You will do readings where no one shows up. You will set up at events and sell no books. Rejection will show up in your inbox again and again. You will say “I wrote a book!” and folks will stay quiet or say “Cool!” and then not buy it. It’s all good. Part of the gig. KEEP AT IT.

This is freaking brilliant.
Since this hit a lot of you for the first time, here’s the next level upgrade:
You can write your outline as a series of brackets. [We meet our protagonist] [He meets his love interest] [They go to the movies] [The monster attacks] Then fill in the outline, writing whichever beats you are ready to.

Stuck in a scene? Do what the pros do: use brackets. Write what the story beat is:
[Our hero gets out of the fight through clever means]
Then just keep writing what happens after. Maintaining momentum is key to getting the most words on the page. Meanwhile solutions often present themselves later.

Had a good vibe going for this story yesterday and now I've hit a speed bump. I wonder if I should just write what I have and see what happens or keep working the outline. #scriptsky #writersky
