- Just met a screenwriter of a film in competition at Sundance. It's her 22nd script. She's had 4 paid options along the way, but this is the 1st to make it to the screen. "Wouldn't be nearly as sweet without all the battle scars" Embrace the marathon mentality #screenwriting
- The Wire the best show of all time? Sheeeeeeeeeeit... As Omar Little would say, Oh indeed.
GIF - Horror producer to me this morning: "Now every freakin' pitch is an A QUIET PLACE or GET OUT clone. Writers forget those were their own things. They need to write THEIR own thing!" Blaze your own trail. #screenwriting #screenwriter #screenplay #writerslife
- Just asked one of the top screenwriting managers to give me his take on the current market to share w/ my followers: "Demand is huge. Crazy huge. Writers with strong scripts should be doing everything possible to get themselves out there. Now is the time." #screenwriting
- Just got approached by a beautiful soul at @Cannes who: -Discovered Stage32.com in 2014 -Was inspired to take up screenwriting by others in the community -Scored a paid option & has mgmt meetings in L.A. next week She’s 68 #cannes #screenwriting #noexcuses #create
- Every day I’m hit up by “creatives” who want things handed to them. They don’t want to put in the time, the work & recognize the long game Cheers to those who take a “brick by brick” approach and understand: Relationships = Jobs Reads Financing Long term success #DoTheWork
- Devastated for the filmmakers, casts & crews impacted by the cancelling of #SXSW. We want to help. We will screen your film to our roster of execs, sales agents, distributors, etc to assure it gets the attention you deserve stage32.com/screenings #FilmTwitter pls share & RT
- 7 years ago, Taylor Sheridan was a 41 year-old struggling #actor living in a dingy Hollywood apartment 6 years later, he was an Oscar nominated #screenwriter No excuses. Get after it. buff.ly/2ly4gb3 #screenwriting #filmmaker #indiefilm #film #SaturdayMotivation
- Just watched a filmmaker crash and burn in a pitch meeting because he forgot Golden Rule #1 Don't be a dick. Meeting over...Door closed forever. #killemwithkindness #beacollaborator
- Phenomenal call with Netflix this morning. Hopeful to announce more soon.
