Since SINNERS is doing so well (it's fucking awesome), I thought I'd throw out my 1hr, supernatural pilot MAGICAL NEGRO that vibes with it. This script got me my rep and won the 2023 Set in Philly Prime Time TV Pilot award sponsored by Comcast and NBC Universal

FINALLY seeing SINNERS

Ugh have to buy a new laptop😭

Does the Halloween-themed music video for Everybody (Backstreet's Back) still bring you joy? If so, congrats, we are very close friends

Yo this show is SO GOOD

The thing about covering the entertainment industry is that every single day, it offers up a reason to just give up on it forever www.vulture.com/article/bria...

The logline for my pilot MAGICAL NEGRO: In pre-Civil War Philadelphia, a rebellious Black man, who is a personified good luck charm, runs afoul of powerful city officials and must survive the bullet-riddled consequences if his thriving Black community is to persist. #scriptsky

In the spirit of hoping that more diverse projects get bought/made and more diverse writers find work, I'm a rep'ed screenwriter available for staffing with samples available (esp my pilot MAGICAL NEGRO which had won the SIP Prime Time Pilot award sponsored by Comcast and NBC Universal) #scriptsky

And they have FREE classics available if you want to jumpstart your reading habit again! I’m so excited!

Hollywood, for your consideration.

With NOSFERATU now tearing it up, I wanted to share my horror pilot THE HUNGER OF DRACULA - available for public reading on the Deadlist! It's INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE meets THE GREAT full of blood, sexy times and dark heart. Been super proud of this script. Link below🧛🏾 #ScriptSky #horror

Cried a few times during this show and just bawled during the finale. This show is GREAT and wonderfully about hope, love and empathy. And the best adaption of Superman in so long. Also writers...this is a GREAT example of how you develop a series around a theme and nail it throughout

When life gives you lemon scented logs…

No one asked for it but the world needs it! Here goes the 1st page of a NETFLIX YULE LOG spec script written by me and @loudmen.bsky.social 🎄 #scriptsky

Meeting people in the NFL must be like "Hi, I'm Jalen." "Hey, I'm also Jalen." "Oh what a surprise, my name is Jalen, too."
