In the Season 1 finale of the podcast, Glenise Mullins and Robin Fusco break down what actually helps when you’re preparing to pitch: how to practice without sounding rehearsed, manage nerves, make eye contact, warm up the room, use visuals and cue cards, and handle the inevitable Q&A.

Pitching is a whole process—and in the first part of this series, Robin and Glenise break down why it matters, what an OWA actually is, why you need a clear point of view before you ever step into the room, and how to structure your pitch.

Keep the Drama on Screen, Not Behind the Scenes Understanding clearances is like playing legal dodgeball—avoiding rights issues that can shut your project down or cost a fortune. Whether it’s a character name or artwork in the background, every detail needs approval.

Ever wonder what’s really happening behind the scenes in a writers’ room? It’s not just a hierarchy — it’s a dynamic puzzle where every role changes the game. Know how to read the room, stay flexible, and don’t forget the golden rule: don’t be a jerk.

As we watch our industry become a monopoly, supported by a kleptocracy, people are rightfully wondering what we can do to stop it. One solution is something I’ve been working on for the past 8 years. At first it felt hyperbolic to say we’re going to save Hollywood. But now I’m starting to believe.

How do we feel about modern adaptations? I just finished Katie Bernet’s BETH IS DEAD. She’s a brilliant writer, and I was sucked into the story. It also made me incredibly nostalgic for the original.

The cover of “BETH IS DEAD.” It is pink, with blood dripping from the bottom half of the word death. The author’s name, “Katie Bernet” is centered at the bottom.

Who has read the collaborative novel THE GRIMOIRE OF GRAVE FATES? I need to know more. How did it come together? Did the editors have an outline & assign roles? Was there a writers’ room? Did the authors each come up with a character and it was worked out from there? So. Many. Questions. #Booksky

The cover for the novel “The Grimoire of Grave Fates.” The tile is on a circle in the lower middle set within a depiction of a gargoyle. On the top is the phrase, “Twenty hours. Eighteen students. One murderer.” On the bottom is, “Created by Hanna Alkaf and Margaret Owen.”

Just finished Charlie Donlea’s book DON’T BELIEVE IT, and I’m fascinated by the discourse surrounding its ending. To me, it’s a great sequel setup, but no direct sequel exists. Anyone know if the cases are referenced in either of the books featuring Gus or Cuddy?

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

NEW: Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court. The latest? A new ruling that requires the police to record all interrogations from now on. The author took it as an opportunity to say Hawaii's court will protect due process—while SCOTUS isn't:

Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS - Bolts

Hawaii justices ruled that their state constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaiians—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.

Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air after our government threatened a private company with retaliation, marking a dark moment for free speech in our nation. More than 400 artists across our nation signed on to say: We refuse to be silenced by those in power.

We the people must never accept government threats to our freedom of speech. Efforts by leaders to pressure artists, journalists, and companies with retaliation for their speech strike at the heart of what it means to live in a free country.

Last week, Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air after the government threatened a private company with retaliation, marking a dark moment for freedom of speech in our nation. In an attempt to silence its critics, our government has resorted to threatening the livelihoods of journalists, talk show hosts, artists, creatives, and entertainers across the board. This runs counter to the values our nation was built upon, and our Constitution guarantees.

We know this moment is bigger than us and our industry. Teachers, government employees, law firms, researchers, universities, students and so many more are also facing direct attacks on their freedom of expression.

Regardless of our political affiliation, or whether we engage in politics or not, we all love our country. We also share the belief that our voices should never be silenced by those in power – because if it happens to one of us, it happens to all of us.

This is the moment to defend free speech across our nation. We encourage all Americans to join us, along with the ACLU, in the fight to defend and preserve our constitutionally protected rights.
