Nearly 20,000 writers could go on strike as soon as midnight tonight, and shut down Hollywood. Here’s what’s happening, and how you can pressure Hollywood executives to pay writers. Thread.

Got off the phone so pleased to be able to give a friend a great review for a job opportunity. Meanwhile, I'm experiencing MONUMENTAL guilt for asking a friend to write me a recommendation letter last min. What is it going to take for my Black ass to believe I deserve care too?

I'm the happiest when I'm writing. The end.

The 4th episode of "Sound of the River" season 1 is out. Basking in love and gratitude for the honor to play a small part in the telling of this important story. #screenwriters @YouTubeBrasil @MariaFarinha youtu.be/C5eMzUd7t0E
Me: Finished! Writing is done. Also me: I mean… I’m somewhat done with a super rough version of what will eventually become a screenplay that makes any sense.

A friendly reminder that you are someone’s favorite writer.

One of best 1-on-1 coaching I've ever had.
For years, I’ve been teaching classes to train TV assistants. SC and WA & WPA, all in person, with some amazing alumni to show for it. Now, I’m finally launching digital workshops with @WritersAsstLab - follow the link for our 1st class, or sign up for 1-on-1 coaching!

Just a reminder that the female word for "wizard" is still "witch" in 2022.
It’s pretty remarkable to arrive in two different countries and feel at home at both.

George Floyd: a man of peace. We mourn his murder. We cry for justice. We fight the temptation to look away, to say it’s not our problem. Racism is our disease and every Black life murdered is another plea to wake up from our illusion. God help us 😭
