Been thinking a lot about these pending rewrites

I am fully prepared to make the necessary changes to make each script as solid and effective as it can be

Won't be easy, but it's what needs to be done

A producer is attached to The Woman Who Knows!

But I need to hire a casting director for Day Players, a admin assistant, and a graphics designer for myself.

Any help is appreciated. We just want to make a great film.

Donate $100, and become an Associate Producer.

Just found out a writer friend of mine passed away late last year. He'd always been a big supporter & believer in my screenwriting journey.

Savor and make the most of the connections you have.

800+ flights cancelled today because Elon took a chainsaw to the federal government and Trump won’t pay the remaining airport personnel.

Elon’s on his way to becoming a trillionaire.

Trump’s net worth has more than doubled inside a year.

Glad everything worked out for them.

How about you?

Somebody suggested their Austin notes were very AI-ish
