Writing about an authoritarian government to cope with the rise of an authoritarian government #Scriptsky

The exhilarating rush of trying to get a movie made before the country burns to the ground. #Scriptsky

Listening to hard rock to pump yourself up < listening to a Blue's Traveler harmonica solo to pump yourself up

Me wanting to talk about all my ✨things✨ going on, but being too superstitious to actually say them... #Scriptsky

Dude regularly acts like a cartoon villain and people are like "hmm maybe he's not so good after all"

I sent this to my wife on July 2nd. Having known this disaster was coming for nearly 3 months doesn't make this even a little bit better.

Hey Baseball fans, want to see something extremely stressful?

Logical brain: "You were extremely busy this month with a lot of good creative progress on many projects. It's okay you won't finish #Spectember on time." Creative brain: "YOU ONLY NEED TO WRITE 14 PAGES A DAY FOR THE NEXT 5 DAYS AND YOU'RE DONE. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR???" #Scriptsky

A Rothko print hangs directly next to my bed for this exact reason. Though we suffer the "tragedy of being human" as Rothko put it, we do not experience that tragedy alone.

These next 5 days have the potential to be either very good or extremely disappointing for me. Whatever the outcome, I've controlled what I can and embraced what I couldn't. Even though it might take some reminding, that will be enough. #Scriptsky

When you really like the major revision of an outline that you already really liked to begin with. #Scriptsky

THIS FRIDAY, our second feature film SAINT DROGO is finally coming to Blu-ray! With hours of special features including directors commentary, see the film @horrorpress.com calls “a signature blend of quiet rage and grotesque practical effects that would make any gore hound flinch.”

I believe this is what we called in the old Twitter days as being "Ratio'd"

Not getting raptured because God and I both know the second I get up there, I'm asking him to read my screenplay. #Scriptsky

Writing is... Brainstorming Making notes Outlining Referencing other movies for research Going on a walk to clear your head Reading other scripts Creating story mythology Acting out scenes Living your life The only thing that isn't writing is deciding your story isn't worth telling #Scriptsky

And for my next trick, watch as I juggle working on 3 different projects and giving notes on a script all in one morning. #Scriptsky

What movie do you consider perfect? #Filmsky

baseball is stupid

Evergreen now, tomorrow and until the end of time. #LGM

Incredible thread on something every single one of us deals with: rejection ⬇️ #Scriptsky

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched #Filmsky

Okay #Scriptsky let's be real for a second... How many of us already know what they'd say in their Oscars/awards acceptance speech?

Help Stacey get to AFF this year! This script is just a complete masterwork and deserves its best chance at being made. It made my world a little brighter. I hope audiences can have the same experience. #Scriptsky

When finishing one of my latest feature scripts, I thought "maybe I should keep this to myself" due to the fact this story would enrage evangelical Christians if it ever got released. I'm starting to change my tune on that... #Scriptsky

Taste accuracy: 8 Visual accuracy: 1 (I will not be posting photographic evidence to preserve my dignity)

Today is my wedding anniversary so of course I'm spending the afternoon trying to replicate our very elegant wedding cake. Results to come... Wish me luck!

25 years after originally beating Pokemon Red, I, an adult man, still find the satisfaction in completing a game that was a core part of my childhood.

Get to this screening if you can. So worth it. #Filmsky

I think this is a struggle we've all dealt with at some point in our writing careers. How do you build your community? So let's do a thread! 🧵 1/6 #Scriptsky

I've had 2 separate writers say incredibly kind things about my work today and it reminds me that sharing your scripts with others is so important. It's how you build a community. It's the best way to not feel alone in this absolutely bonkers creative pursuit. #Scriptsky

Robert Redford did a lot of incredible things in his career. One of the most impressive was being able to take J.C. Chandor's 31 page nearly dialogue-less script for ALL IS LOST and turn it into one of the most riveting solo performances of all time. A legend lost indeed. #Scriptsky #Filmsky

Pretty weird my first response to finishing the outline for a New Feature was "Okay, onto some pages for the spec script." The work never stops. #Scriptsky

Placing holds on several DVDs at my local library like the cool kids do 🤓 #Filmsky

I've probably never seen this movie on a screen bigger than 13 inches. Last night, I got to see Spielberg's director's cut in 70mm with a theater full of completely awestruck adults. Mashed potatoes never looked so good. #Filmsky

New DEADCOATS thumbnail, just because. (Link to full short in bio) #Scriptsky

I've entered just 2 Screenwriting fellowships/competitions this year. I have just 1 more in my sights left to enter. I've missed the validation of placements, but I instead got to really just focus on writing. Competitions changed my career. Choosing not to enter changed my writing. #Scriptsky

Beautiful night for a ball game (please win) #LGM

Late last year, @restinnette.bsky.social and I set out to bring a piece of her audio drama script to life. Today, I happily present you the teaser for ACHRONAL, a sci-fi audio drama. This was a blast to put together. Take a few minutes to share and enjoy! vimeo.com/1118142676?s... #Scriptsky

Hey, remember this? Would you believe me if I said I had an update on this? Stay tuned... #Scriptsky

Evergreen now, tomorrow and until the end of time. #LGM

It's days like these I'm insanely glad I don't use Twitter anymore

I'm really not trying to start Screenwriting drama, but I think someone has to say it... The formatting in the Epstein Birthday Letter is horrible. That script is never getting made. #Scriptsky

I had a goal this year to watch 100 movies. Yesterday, I watched my 100th film of the year. And yet, it has also been my most creatively productive year. The creativity you take in is just as important as what you put out. #Scriptsky #Filmsky

Hahahaha look how scared he looks
