Fellow writers, what approach works best for finding your next project? I’m a logline/concept guy myself, but I know others may start with character, comps, setting etc. #ScriptSky

I don't understand the envy/jealousy some feel toward the success of fellow screenwriters. This buisness is brutual enough as it is to be bitter that it's not happening to you. #ScriptSky

I’ve known depression has lingered in my life, but I’ve always pushed through it because there’s no other choice than to thrive, but man, the unease in the world right now has me down and out. I’m okay, just trying to find a way to make art my safe place again.

Gloria Steinem died with fewer rights than she had during her lifetime. That fact needs to be front and centre of every media report, every dedication, every discussion of her death.

I've had high anxiety since I was a teen. Tried anti-depressants, but they always made it worse. I've been rawdogging it.. until today. I was prescribed medicinal cannabis. (CBD drops and THC inhaler). I gave the CBD drops a go... Is this what it's like to feel normal and relaxed?!

How do you naturally check in with people again? It’s hell constantly reading body language, analysing words, actions, and trying to be everything to everyone with the hope to never again feel the fracturing grief that comes with losing someone to suicide. Three years feels yesterday.

Sam Neill spent some of his lockdown posting wholesome chats and duck-cuddling content from his home in New Zealand. These meant a lot to me during a pretty dark time. This drawing was inspired by one of his posts. Thanks for everything, Sam. Your amazing films and your humanity. Rest in peace.

A 2020 illustration of one of Sam Neill's lockdown quotes. It is drawn in the style of Animal Crossing, which was also a big warm hug at the time.

The film and TV industry was a goose that laid golden eggs and fed legions of cast and crew for decades until tech companies came along. Wall Street got excited when they called themselves “disruptors”, when it was so obvious they were just breaking something that they didn’t care to understand.

Well, I'm officially getting old... I just overheard a group of early twenty-somethings speaking about The Simpsons. Two had never seen it, one didn't believe it lives up to the hype, and the other thought the animation was 'jurassic'. Little brats insulting my religion like that... #ScriptSky
