Know what’s important? Knowing that sometimes the notes don’t apply AT all. I had feedback read by a peer reader. “About 70% of this coverage is taste and dogma masquerading as craft, while the remaining 30% hits on legitimate screenwriting mechanics.” #scriptsky

Excited to share Monitor:Crush Depth has been selected as a Quarter Finalist in the @stage32.bsky.social xWitchcraft Motion Picture Company Contained Genre Contest. This is a fun horror in the confines of an aging sub looking for a way to silence the noise. Congrats to my fellow qfs! #scriptsky

“The Third Time I Met the Devil” is going to need packaging to reach its ceiling. But its ceiling is where dreams come true! #scriptsky

#scriptsky Reader feedback from one of my favorite contests. Pretty much what I was going for, NGL. "The Third Time I Met the Devil"

It's a strong, beautiful, raw, gritty, and heartbreaking tale. The soundtrack will be incredible. The writer does an amazing job putting us in this world, this time, this desire, and this pain. Some of the writing and descriptions feel like songs themselves. Audiences will feel for Robert and his struggles, and wish that he could have beaten this.

Some annoying updates coming this weekend from me. 7 different feature scripts… I’ll wait until final placements to bore you with the details… #scriptsky.

#scriptsky #wipwednesday (work in progress) Trying something new for us to share. I wrote a scene that gave me “A Few Good Men” vibes. And I’m digging it. Will cut about 30% because some of it is dramatized earlier. “The Dream and the Weavers”. Based on last years AFF Second Rounder short.

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

Just here, working on improving my stories. Fixing an issue with my "Are You Ok..." when I got some Development Reader details on my rewrite of "A Century of Rain". Had to stop and share it. #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

#scriptsky Attention! Attention! Check your inboxes for AFF notifications. Second Rounders - TV pilots are up first. Some folks have shared their laurels! Shorts will be over the next week.

#firstpagefriday #scriptsky recent update for -The Devil’s Cut- i have trimmed 18 pages over the last month. Trying to solve a Act 3 compression problem before sending a draft for prod co approval.

At a game tonight. But thought I’d share these from this week. Winning. #scriptchat

#firstpagefriday #scriptsky Between rewrites of my summer features I wrote a 3 page short. “Lunch Hour” inspired by a true story.

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Third page of my latest WIP. #thirdpagethursday. “The Third Time I Met the Devil”. A bunch of contest announcements headed our way tomorrow. So enjoy it before its success goes to my head #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Can use some happy thoughts: I have engaged with a prod co backed by a major studio to co-write a limited series. First meeting went great. Writing sample was an exact match. Additional materials were shared between parties. Decision before 8/20. #scriptsky

Buried in an email saying Semi’s will be announced on the 10th was a link to the QFs. 4255 projects. 477 QFs. Age of Aquarius is moving on! Attached feedback from the contest reader. #scriptsky congrats to @juliapearlstein.bsky.social and others! Tag yourself and be seen! This is not a small thing.

Got a full script request from one of those fancy named agencies. :-) Think happy thoughts that the reader is having a great day! #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Had to share this feedback from a reader "A genuinely rare thing, a blues biopic that earns its mythology through ferocious prose, a Devil for the ages, and the conviction to let its hero be complicit in his own destruction; Eric Lotter writes like he's been to the crossroads himself." #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

#scriptsky after some back and forth woth the dev team and bloated 130 page draft. I have gotten it back to 108 comfortable pages. And a new #firstpagefriday same vibe but the horror comes faster! “The Devil’s Cut”

080

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

#scriptsky No one panic. Just sit down for this - I got a full script request for my latest script. Director/producer with a decent investor group behind her. I’m gonna wait a full 26 minutes before I hit send to make it look like I did not have it ready to go. Teased with excerpt from coverage.

051

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

So I missed an email. Flickers’ RIIFF selected Age of Aquarius as a Semi Finalist. Again congrats to fellow semi finalist. Final selections will be in the fall. This is pretty cool. 2 scripts selected. I may have to check out the fest next month. #scriptsky

060

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

This is very cool. Flickers’ RIIFF has advanced Monitor as a Semi Finalist. Final rounds are in the fall. This one has some prestige to it. Honored for the selection. Good luck to all of the other projects that have advanced! #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

It’s f’ it #firstpagefriday. Here is page one of my latest. And the first Dev Reader feedback. This is a dangerous project! #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

So this happened last night! As a self-taught guitar player (and a self-taught screenwriter) this story was challenging to research and incredibly fun to write. I sent it off to readers and early feedback is encouraging. The world knows this story. But not Devil’s version. #scriptsky

050

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

Now, we wait. I think this script will be moving to the top of the pile. #scriptsky

Excited to share my latest supernatural thriller has been named a finalist in Cannes Script Festival Summer 2026! This is a new project with minor tweaks every day. But it is a solid story that will be a mid-budget award adjacent project for the right production company! #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

#scriptsky Feedback on an earlier draft of "A Century of Rain": I have addressed some of the issues. A supernatural thriller AND art-house tragedy. I can do that. The comment about Lena coming in earlier, a fully realized co-protagonist arriving on page 60, breaks too many rules.

010

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

Update: 3 of 4 events have reported in. A Century of Rain with it’s first win in Milan. Are You Ok gets a win in Florence! #scriptsky

Eric Lotter @eric-writes.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

What am I I doing? Breaking a historical biopic around a supernatural framing. I may have a feature draft by the end of the month. #scriptsky
