Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 06/10/2026They say consistency is key in writing. Does being consistently mediocre count? #screenwriting 010
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Well, shit - finished m my first new script in like a year. That feels good. Anyone want to read a short film? No idea if it’s any good, but just glad to get to ‘The End.’ #Screenwriting #ISawYouAtAFuneral 210
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 28/03/2026Managed to find my way to “The End” on another screenplay. By no means a polished article, but there’s a story in there worth dragging out. Time to Kill My Darlings and tear this thing apart. #ScreenWriting #GuiltyAllTheSame #ScriptSky 040

Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 21/02/2026Pretty convinced that everything I've written in the last six months is not very good - but I'm certainly glad I've got it on the page rather than not. Can only go up from here, right? #Screenwriting #Scriptsky 020
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 12/02/2026Does staring at the blank page, trying to figure out how to end this script idea count? 110
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 12/02/2026What is writing, if not having two strong ideas for a feature film, and having no fucking clue how to stick the landing? #Screenwriting #ScriptSky 170
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 03/02/202640 pages down on this new pilot - and I'm certain that 95% is unusable. I'm so back. #screenwriting #scriptsky 1120
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 07/01/2026Motoring through outlining of a feature and a few pilots in January, and genuinely pleased that it doesnt feel like it sucks. Always good to feel excited about writing again... Lets see how long it lasts. #screenwriting #scriptsky 030
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 22/12/2025Wowza! That's an incredible effort! I'm keen to find a working schedule for 2026 - it's been a chaotic year, - getting married or being away. Trying to get some structure back and see some results! 230
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 19/12/2025Live forever? I'll settle for just finishing a script. #ScriptSky 260
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 19/12/2025Battling the calendar to end the year with three pilot drafts to my name. It's awful - but it's on the page, so the work is only half done. Onwards! #ScriptSky #GuiltyAllTheSame 130
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 08/11/20254/ These last 125 days have borne a twice-drafted pilot. My first short film, two new pilot outlines, and more progress on finally cracking feature films than I've ever had. I'm on the path, better than I realise. Onwards. But for now, I'm off to get married. #Screenwriting #ScriptSky 270
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 08/11/20253/ I've also learned that no one finds their voice on the first try. It's a melting pot of inspiration, failures, blue-sky thinking, and more failures. Be patient. Be kind. Be ready when the wave comes. 140
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 08/11/20252/ I've learnt the value of seeing tangible progress. For all the internal motivation we have to battle the blank page, there is nothing quite as rewarding as seeing the words flow. When all else fails, you write, then if that fails, write some more. 140
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 08/11/20251/ After 125 consecutive days of writing - be it pages, editing, outlining, or tossing all of it out and starting again - I've discovered a few things. For one, I'm better than I have ever given myself credit for. By no means perfect, but certainly on the right path. 150
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 31/10/2025Not one for Halloween, but I've found myself dressed as something scary - a writer with an idea that isn't terrible. Better get ready to face my fears! Onwards! #5amWritingClub 030
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Found my way to the two best words for any writer... "The End." Now to find my way to the two most intimidating words for any writer... "Fade In." Onwards. #TheTendernessOfWolves #GuiltyAllTheSame #ScriptSky 040
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 17/10/2025For the first time in ages, im genuinely excited to get back into outlining. There is nothing like a new idea to get you excited for writing again. #ScriptSky #GuiltyAllTheSame 040
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 25/09/2025How do my fellow writers elevate the execution of their ideas? I feel like im good at having the idea, but then my execution is just "meh." What am I missing? #ScriptSky 320
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Perennially stuck mere feet from unlocking the door, keeping me from being the writer I know I can be. Playing it safe. Unable to take a swing. On the cusp. Afraid to leap. I'll get there -- hopefully. #Screenwriting 000
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 25/09/2025That's it - I had a note from a producer last year which basically amounted to "You're a skilled writer for someone who only writes to 50% of your ability." Felt like I was playing it safe - time to take some swings. Damn - just a bit on your plate. I'm sure you'll find the right path. 120
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Trying to figure out how to thread the eye of a needle. Outlining two new pilots - both are balancing either multiple characters or timelines. It's proving difficult, but I need to stretch myself and see what I'm capable of. Yourself? 120
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 24/09/2025Two of the most gratifying words to a writer... "The End." #ScriptSky #TheTendernessOfWolves 010
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 13/09/2025Re-watching Normal People to remind myself that there truly are different levels to this writing game. Utterly incredible. 000
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Blinked, and I wrote 8 pages. Take that win. #screenwriting #scriptsky #TheTendernessOfWolves 180
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 31/08/2025Perhaps the greatest frustration on my writing journey to date can be distilled down to this - "A locked door away from clarity." I know im good enough. It's just not yet clicked. I won't stop, no matter the headaches. #ScriptSky 040
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 30/08/2025Happy to wrap another pass on #TheTendernessOfWolves Plenty of work to do, but we're on the right track. "A game hunter turned sheriff's deputy finds a new violent purpose in bringing law and order to a town intent on destroying itself." #ScriptSky 040
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 21/08/2025Wading back into the wonderful waters of logline development. I feel like Goldilocks. Too wordy. Too vague. Too shit. It's not just me, right? #ScriptSkymedia.tenor.coma man with his eyes closed is wearing a grey jacket and plaid shirtALT: a man with his eyes closed is wearing a grey jacket and plaid shirt 040
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 14/08/2025This past month has been the most productive and positive period in my writing in years. I've found a consistency and routine that has me thinking more clearly than ever before. It's not perfect, but it's 1% better than before. Onward! #ScriptSky 040

Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 30/07/2025Nearly close to the end of my western pilot. Final outline on a new pilot also done - inspired by the case to catch the serial killer that struck New Orleans post Katrina. Inching forward. 140
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 21/07/2025Reflecting on my writing as of late. Keep coming back to "I'm good enough to be good, but am I good enough to be good enough?" Honest answer? I don't know. I also don't know how to get right with that. #ScriptSky 020
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 16/07/2025Not to alarm everyone, but it's think I've finally figured out how to write this pilot... 45 pages in. Bring it on! #ScriptSky #TheTendernessOfWolvesmedia.tenor.coma man in a trench coat is dancing in a room with a lifetime logoALT: a man in a trench coat is dancing in a room with a lifetime logo 090
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 15/07/2025I love writing. I love seeing my friends get good news. I hate that I feel like all the effort doesn't amount to much. Progress isn't linear, but it's just as confusing and frustrating. #screenwriting ##ScriptSky 050
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Smashed out the last half of the outline for my next pilot. Keen to get the last half of my WIP done and off for notes. It's rather refreshing to be productive in this last week. #CryOfAchillies ##TheTendernessOfWolves #5amWritersClub #ScriptSky 1120
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 13/07/2025Also managed to tick over into my most prolific writing day. 28 pages and still going strong. Don't know how good they are, but it feels good to be productive. 💪 #TheTendernessOfWolves #ScriptSky 010
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 13/07/2025Halfway down on correcting this pilot. I feel much better about it now. Clearer stories. Better connection. There are still some issues, but the course has been corrected. ##TheTendernessOfWolves #ScriptSky 020
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 11/07/2025I desperately need to finish this pilot re-write so I can finally start on this feature that I've spent years putting off. About time I take matters into my own hands here. Do the work. #ScriptSky #TheTendernessOfWolves #Deliverance 050
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Should be noted, I won a copy of Final Draft, no cost associated, so that was a big bonus. May have to venture back to Fade In at some point. 110
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 05/07/2025I should say, I started this rewrite, got 10 pages in. Final Draft crashed. So I re-wrote those 10 pages. Only for it to crash again. I tried a 3rd time and only got another 5 done. I wrote 25 pages and only have 5 to show. I'm tired. #TheTendernessOfWolves #ScriptSky 320
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Halfway through this rewrite, and finally solved a long-standing story problem. I guess it's back to square one, I go. Ugh 😤 #TheTendernessOfWolves #ScriptSky 040
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 03/07/2025Was hitting roadblocks with my current pilot, so I did what any self-respecting writer would do - i finished an outline on a new pilot. #TheTendernessOfWolves #Mudland #ScriptSkymedia.tenor.comTkt Smart GIFALT: Tkt Smart GIF 010
Josh Fox @joshtfox.bsky.social · 21/06/2025My favourite thing about writing? Thinking I have a good idea, getting almost done, and then being terrified it's awful and never wanting it to see the light of day. #ScriptSky #TheTendernessOfWolves 060
