Thrilled and honored to be included in Season 3 of The Dead List! Thank you @ashlazer.bsky.social and team for all you do!!

This little script was inspired by some childhood experiences, and explores ableism and bodily autonomy...if you dare to look.

My first official big kid reading is happening in NYC, baby! And I got all my picks like the greedy little gremlin I am. #scriptsky

If anyone has any tips about how to get word out with such a quick turnaround (November 25th) get at me!

Also, I saw #Bugonia (our version). Heck yeah.

In honor of my fuckit script's first laurels, I had to reshare the first page for #FirstPageFriday and #FunPageFriday
#scriptsky
EXT. FARM - DAY Worn leather boots covered in muck step through a sea of white feathers packed tightly together. SUPER: COLORADO, 1945 CHICKENS. At least fifty, frantically scatter and CLUCK. A hand as worn as the boots swoops down and effortlessly snatches a chicken. LEWIS GABLE (42), in tattered overalls, plods through the maniacal fowl, with the unlucky bird dangling by his side. He’s weathered, scrawny, and anything but lazy- he’s simply down on his (c)luck. Just outside a faded red barn, Lewis approaches a stump that has seen the blade of an axe hundreds of times. He lays the chicken on the stump, fussing to get it centered. LEWIS Thank you for your sacrifice. Lewis braces the chicken and with one hand, raises an axe above his head. INT. KITCHEN - DAY A freshly pruned and cleaned chicken SLAPS onto a butcher block. MARY GABLE (38), a rugged beauty and self-sufficient out of necessity, moves to a rack of more chickens and counts under her breath. She grabs a handwritten note from her apron and crumples it on an aggravated exhale. EXT. FARM - DAY Mary ambles past wilted crops to the eerily silent barn. INT. BARN - DAY Lewis rests on a dilapidated hay bale, and a single chicken curiously pecks the ground near his feet. MARY (O.S.) Lewis! We’re short! Lewis perks up. That can’t be true.

There is also a small banner made up of fall trees of various colours, as well as a slice of pumpkin pie with a cute smiley face both on its side and the whipped cream dollop on top of it.

Thrilled to make the #DEADLIST with “CUT!”. Original brainstormed this when pitching on the wraparound for (what would eventually become the fourth) V/H/S. Loved the idea so much, we wrote the feature! Currently partly financed with a killer location locked as in-kind favour - maybe the time is now!

And remember, sharing is caring, so check out ALL the amazing scripts on #TheDeadList2025 👀
Woman in red light on black background, text "don't fight what you've become." Black and white image of woman wiping blood from her lips, text "did you really think you were going to be the fucking first one to get away from me?" Woman in black and white biting her arm, text "you're hollow inside, just waiting for something to fill you up." Red liquid background with text "I can make all those nasty, bloody thoughts go away before it gets worse. And it will get worse. You won't be able to stop yourself... none of them will be safe..."
