A disheartening day after receiving 4 rejections for a screenplay that did well elsewhere last year. I get how subjective it all is, and usually after deleting the emails I can move on - that's not working today. Sometimes you just need a win, even if it's only a tiny one.

Last year I deleted my Twitter account.
Recently I gave notice I would delete my FB & Insta as of today, to allow family, friends & fellow writers time to find me here.
Just finished deleting them, surprised at how good it felt.
To those who made the leap - welcome!

If you know an actor on Bluesky, why not ask them to browse through the #SpecScriptShoutOut posts & see if any of the stories connect with them? It could be the start of a collaborative relationship - let's help make it easier to make art. #writingcommunity #scriptsky #filmsky #art

@thewomenslist.bsky.social are opening up their 2025 screenwriting search on Feb 13th. I say search, rather than contest because their mission is different.
