I keep thinking about those congresspeople kneeling in the rotunda wearing kente cloth scarves, very performative. There has been no loud, visible, unified support for Sarah McBride from the democrats. It’s a real disgrace. That is your colleague! They are bullying her in your faces. And silence!

There's something I need people to understand.
The studio that made this released some numbers. They had to produce 85 minutes of footage to find 15 usable seconds for this ad.
The machine that creates moving images out of nothing has a failure rate of 340:1 and the best 15 seconds... is this.

SCREENWRITING AXOIMS FOR A LONG CAREER:
Underpromise, overdeliver.
Don't turn in a 1st draft, it should be at least the 5th.
Don't act emotionally to notes. Digest then respond.
The studio / producers are your partners not your enemy.
Your next job is determined by how you did on your last.

I've never been a huge fantasy fan but with art by @chriswildgoose.bsky.social and a story by @gwillow.me? C'mon now. I just read all of Vol 1 and will probably reread it again later just to take my time with the amazing visuals.
So if you don't usually read fantasy, you'll still love this 🙌🏻

Me sitting on the couch in my oodie, finishing off a family size bag of flaming hot cheetos, staring into the abyss while my cats scream at me for crumbs: this IS writing.

Just 17 years?
About 25 years ago I posted a script for review on a platform that didn't allow replies to feedback. The reviewer quoted the action line "she starts awake" with "I think you meant starts TO awake" and took a whole 2 points off for it.
They were wrong and I don't wish them well 🙏🏻

My 17yo dog (Biscuit) was going a bit blind and a bit deaf and I wanted him to have company when we weren't home but another dog could be too much energy for him so we rescued Quail.
2 years later and she's never far from him. Even sits and watches him through the screen door when he goes outside.

Stuck on a writing project? Here's what I always ask myself in that situation: Emily, have you considered that you might not be very good and should abandon writing altogether and move to the woods and make candles or possibly become a nun or something?

Do you think Ariel ate the scallops whose shells she wears as a bra or that they’re still in there and that’s how they’re suctioned to her boobs?
