My husband got the literal LAST ticket to the Chicago Film Festival screening of Wake Up Dead Man next month for me. Being married rules.

New trailer out today for THE HARBINGERS (from the mind of @gabrielurbina.com)- featuring the incredible @lgrace.bsky.social! MAGIC IS REAL open.spotify.com/episode/3hhk...

You should really take a listen and Get. Hyped.

She's HERE!!! Second trailer for The Harbingers is out, and I cannot WAIT for y'all to meet Amy!

Let's talk about #audiodrama crowd funders happening right now. I'm posting these in no particular order.

not to make this all about my own interests, but we NEED more people to discover audio dramas not only do they rule, but they're probably one of the few entertainment mediums left that aren't mostly controlled by massive companies vulnerable to corruption/pressure the most successful ADs are indie

But it's a really amazing team that we've put together for this one - an absolutely brilliant cast, including the amazing @lgrace.bsky.social, who I'm so excited to be working with again after That Vampire Show. And who knows! Maybe in time we'll be able to bring in some old friends into the fold!

So let's talk about why this sucks. I am so angry and so disappointed, but I also know that a lot of people might not understand why I and my queer friends are feeling this way. Read on for an explanation 🧵(1/14)

Holding a little funeral for that really funny joke that had to get cut because it "didn't thematically or tonally or logistically fit, Lauren" and "this episode is already massively over page count, Lauren."

Yes I am mad about the Harry Potter Audible series because it's directly funding hate against people like me and my friends. But I'm ALSO mad because it's swallowed up most of Audible's commissioning budget, so there are less audio stories being commissioned Rotten all the way down

We've had so many people reach out and ask how they can help TAFCON! Yall are the best! Right now the best things you can do are: (1) Support the crowdfund! We've got 40% of our goal to go! (2) Spread the word! Post about it, tell your friends, share it in your newsletter... everything helps!

We're past 50% funded! Seems like the perfect time to talk about our Main Stage panels!🧵

A thing about me and @woodenovercoats.bsky.social is that I never think Rudyard Funn has gone too far, actually. Ruin anything you want, my bitter little guy, you deserve it. It's your birthday. 🥳

I'm (virtually) at the Wolf 359 anniversary panel. I'm (virtually) at the @woodenovercoats.bsky.social live show. I'm (virtually) at the combination Wolf 359 anniversary panel and Wooden Overcoats live show.

Help fund this so we can meet some of these lovely people and some of YOU lovely people!

Y’all- I’m so, so excited for you to hear this show. Gabriel is such an electric writer, and the cast is a delight~ As a director AND sound designer, this has been a dram of a show. I think you’re gonna love it.

This project has been a dream at every step, and I am SO happy I can finally talk about being lucky enough to be in it!!

That devastating moment when you have to open your Notes app and figure out if the scattered pieces of dialogue you wrote excitedly in a fugue state on an airplane are actually helpful at all for the episode you're writing.

Truest expression of love with a co-writer is inspiring this reaction in each other, and Ian’s pages nearly killed me today

INCREDIBLE work, detective! 💙🤍💛🔎🥂

Plainly, the people mad about the work required to write well and make great art who are justifying various artificial intelligence tools as shortcuts to that creative process don't value the labor inherent to it.

SO so excited about this, especially that lovely Ensemble nod for our truly astounding cast (and Rob as well I guess)

This is going to sell out, team, which is AMAZING and ridiculous, so book soon and ENJOY YOURSELVES! ☀️ And also come to Crowley Time Live before at 4:30pm! live.crowleytime.com

so much of making it in entertainment is literally just.....holding the fuck on for as long as you can. making audio fiction is still HARD and, in some ways, harder now than it was 4 or 5 years ago, but I'm not the only one from way back in '15/'16 who is still around, making our shit

Atypical Artists' free resources are brilliant and so helpful, I benefitted so much from them while planning and writing the first season of All At Sea. I will always be thankful for the accessibility of their resources when so frequently grifters will place advice behind absurd paywalls.

Wooden Overcoats is back - for 1 x night only! RUDYARD RUINS EVERYTHING! Sunday 7th September 2025 - help us celebrate 10 years! Tickets are available in the hall at Kings Place, and you can stream us online anywhere in the world! www.woodenovercoats.com/listings

The one-two punch of Wolf 359/Wooden Overcoats is insane, LPF this is the greed they talk about in the bible

There is no funnier podcast than Wooden Overcoats. (Not on this list.) There are no better developed audio characters than those of The Bright Sessions. (Not on this list.) No one has made a better sequence of audio than the first 5 min of 36 Questions. (Not on this list.) time.com/collections/...

I've created a new audio fiction series, called The Harbingers. It just had its premiere at Tribeca. I think you'll like it if you like: - Lovers to Enemies (...maybe back to lovers) - Stories about real magic in the modern world - Machiavellian Machinations - Big, Epic Stories with Scope

Please, fiction podcasts, I beg you: Have a website. Even if it's just a small one. Even if it's not perfect. Even if it needs work. (Lords knows lots of mine do.) But at minimum - A place where someone can find what your show is ABOUT, and the names of all the people who work on it. Please. 🙏

Me: I am being responsible, I am keeping to my budget, I am not making frivolous purchases Also me: Oh FUCK new book about a murder on a train! 💸💸💸

Now look here: it's our 10th Anniversary! And we are celebrating with a BRAND NEW EPISODE of Wooden Overcoats - performed live at the London Podcast Festival on Sunday 7th September! Come celebrate with us, we can't wait to see you there! www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/com...

I regret to inform you that I am once more rereading Project Hail Mary. It will happen again.

Cannot emphasize enough that if you plan on reading Project Hail Mary before the movie comes out, do NOT watch this trailer. The turn that is revealed in the trailer was one of the greatest, coolest surprises in my book-reading life. Also read Project Hail Mary it absolutely fucking RULES.
