(1of 2) So, last night's Film/TV AMA was totally fun (or at least for me) and tonight's with @Nevslin will be better because he's a lot more charming than I am. It's 6PM to 7PM and then there will be another on Thursday hosted by @Glenn_Farrington (I had his @ wrong). The goal is to build a thing...

Hey, as I'm new here I'm just wondering if there are any other #screenwriters on here you would recommend following. If you're a screenwriter, #Playwright or #novelist , please give me a shout. Also dig #poets , too.

As we try and rebuild our community over here, let's start with a question:
If you've made a short film and done the festival circuit with it, what are the ones you loved the most? Looking to expand my list as we take CHAT out.

How's people's #screenwriting going today?
I'm wrestling away with pacing issues on a rewrite. Just tried doing the thing of writing out key events - and realised that if I move one of them later that might help (Either that or I found a new rabbit hole :) ) What are you working on?

So, while I'm buried in the development for Chainsaw Fairytale (aka Fairytale Princesses vs the Horror Genre - I just CANNOT seem to decide between the two titles), the whole AI thing keeps rearing its head. Obviously. Let's talk about the Virtual Filmmaking thing first. As Chainsaw Fairyt..

My latest flick has just gone out as a download to a couple of hundred Kickstarter backers. It's been playing festivals for 8 months but somehow the download feels more final, particularly as they're the people who made it happen in the first place. Hope they actually dig it. #filmmaking

I've already written the pilot script for this TV series and it was recently a finalist at the Stowe Story Labs PAGE Awards Fellowship. Are any industry folks out there interested in taking a look?
Please DM me if you would like to read it.

Hey @JeffLieber ! I’m filming a spec piece, the tv pilot of a mystery crime thriller, about black women going missing and a true crime podcaster doing something about it. Once filmed, how do I get it out there to producers and literary managers and networks? To anyone who would watch? Thanks!

Here's the first page of DUST ON DIRT, a tale of a woman fighting to survive both the wilderness and a pair of murderous Border Patrol Officers. Would love to see the opening of other people's scripts for #FirstPageFriday #screenwriting

I'm the co-creator of the #hardboiled #fantasy #webcomic Hunter Black, with art by my partner, William Orr.
#HunterBlack is what a comic made by #Tolkien , #Tarantino , and #Tartakovsky might have been like.

Currently pretending to be both writer and graphic designer as I put what I hope are the finishing touches on a pitch deck for an animated show!

KOSHER FRIED CHICKEN is almost completely outlined!
Grandfather performed on Vaudeville. He had the first Kosher fried chicken restaurant in VA.
Grandmother was a childhood Polio survivor who was told she'd never walk, again. Defiantly, she stood every night.
I can't wait to tell their stories.

Thought I'd try and start a #FirstPageFriday (possibly Saturday depending on your time zone). Post the first page of a script of yours - completed - in progress - your call.
This one's from my current WIP - currently in rewrites. #screenwriting .

The events of today in the Tennessee House are abhorrent.
The right to protest is protected not only in the US Constitution, but also in the Tennessee one, including a clause that allows lawmakers to join a protest.
This is TERRIFYING for democracy and we should all be paying attention.

I hear people talk about "Ideas Folders" but I like to keep mine in a Note so I can use the "Strikeout" option once I've written the script.
And what amazes me, is that no matter how many I strike out, the stories waiting to be told ALWAYS outnumber the ones I've finished.
Onward.

Not sure if there is anyone out there, but I'd like to Spout that as a new writer, my very first script, a pilot episode for a sci-fi series in development called The Cadets, made it to the quarter finals out of 900+ submissions in the Blue Cat screenwriting competition. I'm so proud of me! :)
