This quote is incredible. “You’re fighting like you’re the third monkey trying to get on the ark, and it’s starting to rain.”
Highly applicable to life in general.

Now is a great time to recommend the Canadian Curling comedy, MEN WITH BROOMS.
I have yet to meet anyone on the socials who’s seen it, and honestly folks, it shows. Really missing out on this slice of pure Canadiana.

I'm proud to be Canadian, and I LOVE the Olympics, but those opening ceremony outfits Lululemon forced our athletes to wear are an abomination. Criminal!

Having an epic brainstorm session is a helluva feeling, but a feeling that's hard to remember for the other 99% of the time during the brain-smashing sessions that make up the rest of the writing process. #Scriptsky #Screenwriting

This whole Gavin McKenna situation feels like it's pulled from a script. Young phenom athlete on the verge of being drafted 1st overall, punches a guy for ruthlessly insulting his Mom (allegedly) unprovoked (allegedly), is charged, and now faces jail time, putting his future in jeopardy. #Scriptsky

Hey, #Scriptsky, anyone up for a script-swap? I'd love to get a couple more sets of eyes and feedback on my noir-ish dramedy, and have room to do the same back atcha! The logline is in the next skeet in this thread!
109 pages. R-rating for violence, death, blood and coarse language.

When I wash the bedsheets, I always wait until they are clean and dry, then use them again to make the bed—this way I don’t need to pretend I know how to fold a fitted sheet.
