A marketing poster for a script titled How’ll We Survive? It's an animated political satire horror comedy short written by Nick Wasilieff. The image depicts space, with a cylindrical space station and the moon floating in Earth’s orbit. A shadowed silhouette of a werewolf is faded in the background.

After screenwriting for 40 years (33 as WGA), I have settled on this process: 1. Cards. 2. Screenplay. 3. Sell project and Trades announcements. 4. Rewrites and Development Hell. Producers occasionally die. Well, at least there's money in the mix...

“I should go outside.” • guilt-inducing • anxiety-inducing • sounds very compulsory “Ready an away team.” • a call to adventure • inspires exploration of strange new worlds and to seek out new life • you may get to kiss Commander Riker

Fellow screenwriters, what’re your writing goals before finishing out 2024? I’m working on finishing the first draft of my first feature script. Anyone need any accountability?

CALL TO ACTIVISM @calltoactivism.bsky.social · 15/11/2024
This gave me goosebumps. “My 18-year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night. A man came up to her and started talking to her. A barista handed her “an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.” How grateful I am for people who look out for other people!” We need each other.
