- About three hours on Control since Tuesday (mostly this morning)

Rough week for words. Really struggled getting into this draft. Was way too much in my head -- lots of resistance and doubt ...

It was this time last year that I was wholly distracted from pressing project deadlines by making this ragtag troupe. Currently resisting the pull to add new recruites...

Digging for fire.

Rough images, sentences, bits I come up with. Sometimes while free writing. Others are half remembered dreams or thoughts I've written down. All grist for the mill.

Stumbled across @storypeer.com the other day. Looks like a promising peer feedback service for screenwriters.

Anyone know of something similar for prose works (shorts, novels, etc)?

It's just one damned word after another! If you want to be a writer, you have to write. Constantly. And when you aren't writing, you are thinking about writing. A lot of paperwork!

- About three hours on Control over the weekend.

Printed out the draft I have, read through it, and marked it up. Felt better about it after that. I think it's pretty solid and kind of works.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Senator Schumer has failed to lead this party in one of its most critical moments, and Americans will pay the price. It’s time for him to step down from leadership and make way for a new generation willing to fight for the people instead of the powerful.

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

I feel silly boosting this because encouraging people to back this kickstarter is roughly akin to encouraging people to continue breathing. This is not just an unabashedly good thing, it is a whole stack of huge, unabashedly good things. It is so evident that I just assume everyone *knows* this.

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

• A couple hours on Control since Saturday

Still working on the opening. I think I know how it starts now, and I can kind of see and feel how it plays out.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

this is such a great encapsulation of why this race feels existential even to people outside NYC. Cuomo as the final boss of everything wrong with the current Democratic Party, Mamdani happily grabbing the third rails everyone’s told are too dangerous to touch (trans people, Muslims, socialism)
It's uncanny how Cuomo has been laser-focused at appealing to the absolute worst qualities in people - their insularity, their tribalism, and now their fear. A campaign monumental in its cynicism, a colossal bet by this man and his billionaire backers that people are basically bad.
This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.
