For a while there, it seemed like the world was moving in a positive direction... and then we took the saxophone out of popular music and everything turned to shit #CorrelationEqualsCausation

HURRAY! We bought one of those praying mantis egg husk things from Lowes... and crossed our fingers A month later, we looked in the bush where we placed it... and see a couple of dozen teeny tiny little praying mantis friends walking around on the leaves. Yay!

On my recent trip to England and Scotland, I managed to bang out 16 pages on my script, "FERALS" Airport writing Train writing Up earlier than the other guys writing To bed later than the other guys writing Considering how tired I was the entire time (and sick 1/2 the trip), that's not too shabby!

Home. Finally home.

It happened! I have photographic evidence! An entire family of them! Caught during a feeding frenzy, no less. Can't wait to alert National Geographic Can't wait for scientist to descend and begin the search once more Ok... no more waiting Here's the proof The Loch Ness Monster!!!

It's 10:30pm here in Scotland As I slumber, I hope the President of the United States of America dies in my sleep

Have you seen this doggy? #Scotland #Edinburgh

My best friend and current travel buddy sits across the aisle from me on the train He HATES horror films, so of course I show him the goriest bits of the script I'm writing as our train careens across the countryside I think he wants to throw me from it #scriptsky

Yup... I #amwriting on the train to Edinburgh #scriptsky

On the train to Edinburgh...

Hey @rufustsuperfly.bsky.social I'm hanging near Paddington... and I can see your house from here! Lol Off to Kew we go!

It's his time

The climax to my A Christmas Carol sequel, "SCROOGE: REQUIEM" ... occurs atop St. Paul’s Cathedral. Past the Whispering Gallery Past the Stone Gallery And finally up to the Golden Gallery I just climbed the 528 steps i had my characters climb to stop the zombies! Oh, the view! #scriptsky

Loving this one

Just left Stonehenge... on the way to Bath... with my best friends. A very good day!

Elon Musk is a racist cunt. It's a simple fact.

Got a good pic on my walk through Kensington Garden this evening

Look where I am!

#WritingIsFun #Scriptsky From my current script, "FERALS". It went from dark to darker, and it's really hitting the fan now.

#Screenwriting #FunFact (sort of, kinda) If you have a 100 page script, and on each page there exists just ONE widow, when you edit the pages and "kill the widows", you could reduce your screenplay length by 2 to 3 pages. Yup. #Scriptsky #WriteTighter

Tried to stay asleep my first night in London. In bed at 10pm local after a LOT of walking... but 4am rolled around and my eyes shot open. Tried to fall back, but my mind kept catching me. So I got up and am doing what I know all of you would do in this situation. I #AmWriting #Scriptsly

Post a very British picture

We have three cats Two constantly stalk birds in the backyard and come up empty pawed Today this one, who never gives the birds a second thought, bagged her first! RIP Birdy

Easiest journey to England ever Home to LAX - no traffic, record time Check in for 3 people - 2 minutes TSA line - zero people ahead of us Flight on time Passport control in Heathrow - 30 seconds Damn!

Leaving, on a jet plane (tomorrow) 11 hours in the air Prime writing time. Wouldn't it be cool if I finished Draft 1 of FERALS as I wing my way to the UK?

#scriptsky Shameless plug; I will be part of a live screenwriter’s panel at the Block Island Film Festival May 26 and again May 28. Join me and support #indiefilm. I will be talking shop and my nominated script Monitor. blockislandfilmfestival.org

Just got off a really nice call with Will Hume, who generously read THE BODY FARM and wanted to talk about it. Such kind words, EXCELLENT questions about character development and choices made, TV potential, and so much more. Barring financial success, this is as good as it gets! #Scriptsky

#PitchYourScript or WIP using two movie posters as comps. #Scriptsky My Post-Apocalyptic Horror: FERALS Children of Men meets 28 Days Later

Yup... leaving for the UK next Monday on a trip that's been planned for 5 months, so of course my lungs suddenly feel thick and my throat is feeling sore and I have a headache.

Pro tip: Always be happy for the successes of friends, colleagues and peers. Moments of recognition in any creative field are few and far between, and worth celebrating when they happen. Also, you don't want to look like a seethingly envious dickhead.

Dear MSM: Instead of asking MAGA voters how they feel about gas prices, tariffs or wars, ask them how they feel about the SCOTUS decision to dismantle voting rights for Black people. Their answer to THAT question will fully and wholly explain why they voted the way they did.

Was walking on the beach today, minding my own business, when I came upon a TOTALLY random collection of shells! Just had to take a picture and share it. Isn't it interesting? #TrumpHasDementia #TrumpPoopsHisPants
