The latest Scriptnotes episode is a perfect reminder that you don't NEED a bunch of competition accolades, or reps, or a million industry connections in order to get a script made.

Sometimes, all it takes is the right story at the right time.

Happy 17th❤️❤️

In honor of #CanadianThanksgiving I'm thankful for the beat sheet function in @celtx.com which I just started using to organize my next script. I need to start this one more efficiently - going back and filling in the holes has become a thankless/endless process.

Brilliant show! I would have loved to write for that show.

This was such a refreshing interview. I really appreciated her perspective and very much in line with my own thinking.

This dude is so genuine - wherever he lands he will make a positive impact - but yeah disappointment sucks - congrats on the discipline, focus and most importantly good health - that’s still a victory ❤️.

I am currently picking myself back up. Trying to figure out whether to reapply.

I wanted to be the change I want to see.

I am still writing, though not for the past couple of days.

Not sure what lies ahead of me, but I know what's behind me: I'm NOT going back to that weight/lifestyle.

End.

For #creatives trying to get your work out there, it's a free for all. I don't even know what the new rules are - everyone is just out there spit ballin' it. I've turned into an octopus - and due to my crappy memory can't remember what I'm waiting on, which is probably a good thing!

I love that one!

Another great episode - it was really fun to listen to Rebecca describe how the whole script came together & those key scenes that resonated. It's a fun movie.

Also tune in soon - you'll get to listen to the table read of Isabel's #ZachEfron script with actors. Looking forward to that!

As a #GenX parent I wrote an entire script with helicoptering as the theme - I always laugh with my friends about this - the pivotal question is “why did we do that “???
