Doing the #ScriptSky intro thing:

I'm a (mostly) feature writer that specializes in turning genre tropes on their heads.

My sci-fi thriller SUNDOWN was on the 2023 Black List.

My biopic JUMPMAN: THE LEGEND OF SHIGERU MIYAMOTO was a 2024 Nicholl semifinalist.

I won the AFF Pitch Comp once.

Truly, tell me, how is this different than Jewish and gay people and Romani people being dragged away by Nazis? And didn’t we have some fairly clear agreement to never let that happen again?

Whenever I think the tide is surely turning, I see an article about a poll saying self-identifying Republicans overwhelmingly blame Democrats for the shutdown.

Sure, guys. Might as well go down with the ship.

Spent the morning with my daughter's kindergarten class and the pervasiveness of K-Pop Demon Hunters cannot be overstated.

Ahead of our 20th anniversary, we hit the lab and have come back with a brand new website! The new iam8bit.com is prettier, faster, and will have some long awaited features like wishlists + countdown timers. Buying something from the new website will also make you 13% cooler, too (probably)!

Destruction and disruption of the government only serves to centralize power around a corrupt President. It's like playing hide and seek with a kid who leaves the playground to burn your house down.
