She/Her. Director, writer, podcaster, and voice actor. Interested in working in video games. Creator of Georgie Romero Is Done For, The Soft-Boiled Detective, and The Bonneville Game.
It also shone a light on how many writers/artists/creatives I know who have no faith in their own abilities to an upsetting degree.

One screenwriter once told me how AI came up with better ideas than he ever could and I just thought, "Damn, self-own, but okay."

It's also just interesting to take note of who has a lie down and die mentality.

When you go "We could fight it," they'll say it's impossible. Just be smart like them and use it to your advantage.

But I'm not stupid. Ethics aside, I'm aware all I'd be doing is stalling for time.

People are always so confident about this sort of thing until proven wrong.

After that, they never acknowledge they were wrong and find a new genre to say it about.

Go right ahead!

It's still in the writing phase but I've been describing it as a supernatural murder mystery set in the 1930s.

I do! I'm even working on writing one right now.

The video watching guy acted like we were crazy for wanting him to turn it off.

Like... these people could just go home. No one was keeping them there at gunpoint. I do not understand. Why? Why not just stay home?

Anyway if you want family friendly content, everyone give me a million dollars and I'll make an indie animation version of

As someone who has written more mature animation scripts, whenever I try traditional avenues, I'm told "I just can't picture this as animated, so that should tell you something."

I get a very different reaction in indie spaces. So yeah, more mature storytellers will naturally gravitate to that.

It's difficult to get engagement in general, but it's even more so when it's family friendly. People tend to go "Oh, cute" and keep scrolling.

Indie projects are also usually by the people who don't fit the industry mold, so it's not going to be the Disney content you're craving.

Did some donut research today.

The first donut machine was made by a Jewish Russian immigrant, Adolph Levitt, in 1920 for his bakery in Harlem.

He made it because he couldn't keep up with demand when WWI vets missed the donuts that they got from the Donut Girls in the trenches.
