I feel like third place winners don't get the headlines they deserve. *coughs conspicuously* that's me I won third place The past three years of @nycmidnight.bsky.social have been so fun - I love the creative push, the supportive community, and the thoughtful judging. Join me next year!

Ack! I forgot to thank @eric-writes.bsky.social for the swap, too! Eric blew his script away 🤩

I love your fun stuff, but the two thrillers of yours I've read suggest there's darkness to be mined! Nice work, buddy.

welp, my submission to @nycmidnight.bsky.social is... submitted. Big thanks to my pals @patrickwrites.bsky.social @nickwaswriting.com and @theartofcharts.bsky.social for the reads and support ❤️ Felt good to get back in the saddle - now I go dormant again until (fingers crossed) round 2 in April!

Day two back in the #screenwriting saddle, I mostly remember how slug lines work. Character development, less so.

All right, y'all, I'm back on bluesky and back in Highland Pro after several months off from #screenwriting. My third year of @nycmidnight.bsky.social screenplay competition lured me back. Genre: fairy tale, subject: staycation, character: gossipmonger. Surely, I shall perish.

Beach weekend! We stayed at a hotel with a great view of... a herd of #elk that swung into town. Most of them just chilled while a few of their pals made a #wine run. #scripstky

I might go so far as a "fuck yeah!" Although that might be better reserved for a top five placement.

After three rounds of competition with over 1500 writers, I placed in the top ten of the NYC Midnight Screenwriting Challenge! 🥳 What a rush, and what a lovely community of screenwriters who supported each other. 💕 Grateful. @nycmidnight.bsky.social #NYCMidnightSWC #scriptsky

Eventually 😂 Right now she'll only go out if I'm with her and she gets pissed if I close the door to the house.

your moment of zen: we added a screen door to the back patio, which means Matilda, Queen of the Indoors got to go "outside" for the first time #cats #catio #scriptsky

What, this pic? It's just me hanging out with my beautiful friend @lisamariesimmons.bsky.social before she performs in @charu.bsky.social's amazing concert in Carnegie Hall on Friday. Check out Charu Suri's music and Lisa's band Notespeak on Spotify and all the places! 💕

Me & my cousins Reenie and Beth. They randomly spotted me in #Manhattan, which is funny because they live in Jersey and I live in #Portland and we didn't know we'd all be in the city. Extra funny? We've never met before in real life. New York, you truly are magical.

My logline for my script -Guardrails- was featured @official-inktip.bsky.social Producer Newsletter. So exciting! So you producer types- know what to do to get a look at this award wining script. (That’s right. I said it!) #scriptsky

Hanging out in NYC with my nephews Toothless and Hiccup has inspired me to try writing a kid's movie 😂💕 #scriptsky #WritingCommunity

Am I a nerdy screenwriter? Yes. Do I know how to properly shoot a basketball? No. Does it impress my nephews that I'm a reliably good shot anyway? Let's just say they coined the term "throw a crazy three!" to cue me to make a three-pointer with my ridiculous form #scriptsky
