Had an extraordinary time here at the Rocaberti writers' retreat in Spain. My mentor was wonderful, and I made some amazing friends for life. To be given such an exceptional opportunity was a true gift. #scriptsky

Received that email from AFF about 'Sam the Hammer' being so close to being a Semi-Finalist. It's heartening and made me think, great, it's better now, I'll submit again next year... Which kinda maybe the whole point of the email? Trying hard to be encouraged and not overly cynical. #scriptsky

Hey everyone! Please vote for Sam for Stan Lee's Super Kid! He could win $25k which we would use to start an ABLE account for him, as well as star in his own comic book. We would love to see a kiddo with Down syndrome star in his own Stan Lee comic! Voting starts today! thesuperkid.org/2026/sam-a78a
