As a literary agent, I couldn’t place a client’s gorgeous memoir with anyone. I finally published her book through my nonprofit, MilSpeak Foundation. Today, that gorgeous memoir earned a starred review from KirkusReviews! Take that, Big 5! More soon! #WritingCommunity #Publishing

This sign has lived in the back of my closet since Feb 2008... It was left behind after the last day of picketing, and I couldn't bear to throw it away. Looks like it will be seeing some action again. Comics aren't union, but I'll always support my fellow writers. #WGAStrong

Every single thing that makes TV/Film writing economically feasible was won through labor action.
Health insurance.
Pension.
Control over credits.
Basic minimums.
"I'm sorry. It's too expensive," is always the response.
Fine. We'll do it again.

Found this very moving - a good reminder that we don’t know what people are dealing with, and how long they’ve been dealing with it.

Well a guy named Tucker is no longer hosting a TV show so that's a start.

#Warrior S3 is coming out soon. It's a project very close to my heart not only because of its historical inspiration, its connection to #BruceLee , but also because of the group of people behind it and the support of fans who brought it back from the dead after various mergers killed it.

As a Bears fan, the first half of the offseason was nothing but trade proposals. Now, it's millions upon millions of mock drafts telling me nothing new lol.

Continuing my ultra-film-score nerdity:
On this week's episode of Picard, a line of dialogue containing the word "nebula" prompted the orchestra to play one bar of the theme from THE WRATH OF KHAN, by James Horner. A film which, like the episode, ended with a game of cat and mouse in a nebula.

Just turned in the script for DARTH VADER #37 . I've now written more consecutive issues of this series than any other in my 19 years in comics. Thanks so much to my editors, to all the incredible artists who have worked on the book, and to everyone reading it. 🖤 #comics #DarthVader #StarWars

Last summer I had several of my favorite comic runs bound as library editions. Designed the covers myself and mailed them to Houchen Bindery to assemble. Much prettier and more accessible for casual reading than if I'd put them in bags and boards. Highly recommended.

Happy Valentine's Day!
My wife, a high school art teacher and all around gentle soul, always hums a certain song to herself when she needs to get motivated. She had long forgotten what it was from. Imagine my delight when I got to identify it for her:
