Might replay Undertale just to feel something

watching kimmel tomorrow

Canada celebrates The Rapture in October

Reading No More Tears by Gardiner Harris and I’ve already gasped three times and I’m only on chapter six.

I was working here in the US on a nonimmigrant visa a mere year ago. It was a DECADE of dutifully paying my taxes, paying thousands of dollars in processing fees to renew my visa every 2-3 years. I can't imagine the utter betrayal H-1B visa holders are feeling right now.

People keep talking about tech firms in relation to the H1-B $100k fee but it’s gonna really sink universities.

Thinking about ways to pretty this up so it's not me simply dumping a link to a PDF. Do I know any illustrators/photoshop peeps? The idea would be a mock poster of the Hollywood sign but with alternate lettering (the title of the show, similar number of characters). Anyone? DMs are temporarily open.

Kubrick and his cats.

please god make it stop!!!

Apparently what I needed to lift my spirits on this Monday afternoon is blasting Donkey Kong scores.

Working on this TV pitch is less like peeling back onion layers and more like using a dull knife to cut into a purple cabbage and you have all this wiggly purple shit on your cutting board now

Imagine you're on an operating table and this is the last thing you see before they put you under

My preorder copy of Katabasis shipped!!!!!! Of COURSE it’s arriving during a crazy week but HYPE

I put a BSG reference in Star Trek: Discovery 109, a Legend of Zelda in 212, and a deep cut Sailor Moon one in Kpop Demon Hunters (that made it in)! Secret references are fun and YOU CANT STOP US

My writing partner @gryphonmetal.bsky.social and I are so damn proud of our contributions in this film 💖🇰🇷🫡 Hope Hollywood learns the right lessons and greenlights more ORIGINAL stories.

When I turn in all my words I get to read other people’s words as a treat.

It's been a minute since I've listened through the Battlestar Galactica scores by Bear McCreary. Even after all these years, I still know every track by heart :) Ah, I'm desperate to do a rewatch.

fear itself

Guillermo del Toro refused to make ‘FRANKENSTEIN’ with too many green screens “I want real sets. I don’t want digital. I don’t want AI. I don’t want simulation. I want old-fashioned craftsmanship. I want people painting, building, hammering, plastering” (Source: variety.com/2025/film/fe...)

Nothing went as planned this year and I'm trying to be OK with that 😮‍💨 I feel like a farmer planting seeds during a long drought.

A meeting where I get to reference The Red Turtle is a good meeting.

Every time the WGA account posts about room visits

Inside you are two wolves, five sled dogs, eight Norwegian research scientists, Bennings, Norris, Palmer, Windows, Fuchs, Nauls, Blair, Garry, and Doc Copper.

Stumbled upon the score for "Nine Sols" (an indie video game I had not heard of but looks really cool?!?) and it reminds me a lot of "Ori and the Blind Forest". Quiet, stirring, and great music for writing.

Breakdown of a Hollywood writer "doing development": 15% actual writing 45% pitching (😮‍💨) 12% reviewing OWA IP materials (books, short stories, etc) 10% reading scripts you owe feedback on 10% despair/regret/snacking/drinking/working out 6% general meetings 1% checking my bank account 1% misc

your honor, i... kinda love him

Please pay no attention to the 13 new AI data centers we're building. Now get rid of your picture of the last time your mom held your baby before she died.

My sci-fi spec is basically, accidentally, turning into Apocalypse Now fanfic and I'm not mad about it.

That's Homunculus from Full Metal Alchemist.

탐정들의 영업비밀 재밌네.

Great title for a horror film tbh

A labyrinth of my own making. #amwriting

Slaughtering my darlings in this draft. It must be done. #amwriting

*screenplay

Hm.

When execs say they don’t want villains who are too mustache twirling, I just want to be like really??? Have we not been living in the same political hellscape???

I agree. Creatives' careers are icebergs (of DISAPPOINTMENT!) and I think its necessary to disabuse people of the idea that one day you'll "make it." For 99.99999 % of us you never "make it", you just have "another year that is not, fortunately, my last year in the business."

Tonight (well, 1 AM) is for listening to the Horizon Zero Dawn scores and writing some action scenes I've been putting off.

lately every single time i hang out with creative friends, no matter what we’re talking about or what we’re doing, no matter what our industry is, by the end we’re all just

"hello avatar"

Me when I play video games or read books: This is making me want to write! Me when I’m writing: Why can’t I just play video games and read books!

See, the problem with email is that, when you email someone, they email you back. Then you have another email to read. Has anyone looked into this problem?

As a WGA member who has often supported my friends and folks I like running for office, this time around this is a BIG THING I'm looking at when it comes to endorsements. As a LL writer post-strike it feels like we have been completely forgotten about. I will be endorsing MIKE -- but thread below:

Not going to SDCC this year so don't have TOO much fun without me!!!

Hollywood's Honmoon is powered by screenings of Lawrence of Arabia, The Godfather and 2001: A Space Odyssey.

How Draft 3 is going:

I realize this is inside baseball stuff but: it really is stupid that IMDb categorizes Story Editor and Executive Story Editor credits as "Additional Crew."

After watching the docs POOP CRUISE and AMY BRADLEY IS MISSING, I'm never getting on a cruise ever.

I'm going to do an 1-hour (re)writing sprint starting at 11 PM (PST) so I can finish this pivotal Act 1 scene that's been kicking my ass. Join me! #amwriting #scriptchat
