So happy to see the progress you made @staceycrussell.bsky.social — and so happy you joined us for the @pagecraft.bsky.social rewriting lab!
Very sad to leave Pt. Reyes this morning, and I highly, HIGHLY recommend @pagecraft.bsky.social. I knew I had to rearrange some things structurally with THE OPEN AIR, but I learned SO much about myself, this script, and character this past week. Heidi and Carlo are incredible mentors.

I just cut Miami’s Janson Junk in my #fantasybaseball league. Since Jul 20: 6.38 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, only 5.6 K/9.
If only there had been some kind of obvious clue about the quality of Junk’s pitches.

As I wander these quiet streets late at night, it occurs to me that I’m spending a much larger proportion of my life than I ever would have guessed hoping that an animal will poo.

To save water, the building up the street has installed green turf outside instead of grass. It unfortunately collects quite an array of stains and smells from neighborhood dogs. So, once a week, they powerwash it. You know, with water.

The Nicholl now open only to those who can afford film school or other forms of access, and/or who already have strong personal networks. I thought the Nicholl was supposed to level the playing field, not slant it further. #disappointed #screenwriting #screenwriters

Dear @bsky.app ,
Any plans to provide a private list option? I’d like to make a list of only my IRL friends, to help ensure I don’t miss their posts, but I wouldn’t want that list to be public.
Thank you.

The historical inaccuracies are legion.
The legions are historically inaccurate.
They have hoses 1500 years too soon, invade Numidia 150 years too late, and put salt water sharks in the Coliseum.
Was it good? Meh.
Was it fun? Yes, yes it was.
