I've been having a bit of a pow-wow online with 'Kate Winslet' about film funding, and she's been quite patronising about it for someone who grew up in a family with so little. Seriously, these people who pretend to be celebrities online, what do they get out of it?

After a couple of duds I didn't finish, it's good to know I can always count on @stephenking.bsky.social to deliver a page-turner. There's only one reason I'm giving this four and a half stars and not five, and that's a slight fumble in structure. HMU and I'll give you a few pointers, Steve. LOL

@mayor.nyc.gov Mamdani is a perfect example of how quickly you can turn things around if you really want to help your constituents and you aren't just using public office to fill your own pockets. What if he wasn't the exception, but the rule...

Let's have some fun today, #Scriptsky Pitch your latest script or WIP using two movie posters as comps. This is mine. Now accepting bids in the high eight-figures. 馃槈馃ぃ

Anyone else had this...? Writer writes script using classic structure. READER: The structure is predictable. Writer writes script using completely unique structure. READER: This writer is an amateur - he doesn't even know how to structure a script. #scriptsky

When a Tesla dealership gets shot at they send ICE. When a school gets shot at they send thoughts and prayers.

To all the writers out there seeking reassurance, I bastardize Winston Churchill... "I will write them on the beaches, I will write them in the skies. I will NEVER surrender until I am victorious in the writing (battle)field, no matter how long and hard the road may be." #scriptsky #filmsky

Just typed these lovely words on another feature, my 4th in 7 months. I write the sort of genre stuff people actually want to watch and when I've paid for coverage the LOWEST score I've ever got is 78%. So why won't agents even read my stuff? Writers, tell me how you got repped, plz. #scriptsky

You are up to date.
