A popular horror creator made a post about women doing the damn thing in horror this year. Yet not one Black woman (or any woman of color) was included on her list. So I compiled one.

Here are 20+ Black women doing the damn thing in horror this year #BlackSky

21 Black Women Leads in Horror (So Far This Year)
Let's be honest. Black women have always been overlooked when it comes to lead roles in horror. We are often cast as the Best Friend (Baghead, 2024) or the sacrificial lamb (Annabelle, 2014). I have a...

If you're an indie filmmaker (producer, director, screenwriter, actor, etc.) and your film is on a free streaming service (Tubi, Plex, Roku etc.), shout it out. Throw out a link. Brag a little, even if it's a shitty thriller like mine. You got it made. People can see it. Rejoice! #ScriptSky #FilmSky

I mostly post about screenwriting, but I’m reading Erik Larson’s The Demon of Unrest, and his writing is such a masterclass.

Also, reading this and his In the Garden of Beasts tells you everything you need to know about worst-case scenarios for the next 4 years. 🫠

2016-2020 I gave too much time & energy to outrage.

While deeply disappointed w/ the election, I’m working hard to channel my feelings into MORE writing this time, not less.

We all have a finite well of energy, and I hope you get to use yours in ways decided by you and no one else. ✌️

Looking to swap this draft of FAIRY DUST with women, queer, and/or NB writers. Especially those with an interest in dark fantasy.

Prefer:
1. Genre script with several revisions complete
2. 90-110 pages
3. No first time screenplays
4. 2 week turnaround

DM me if interested!

Every year I try to raise some money to clear teacher wish lists from Amazon. So I’m doing career or story breaking one hour consults for $60 and pilot or feature reads for $300. If you’re interested, message me! If you’re not, well, it never hurts to say hi!

As 2024 started, I promised myself I’d read more. I never make the time, and thought 25 books would be an amazing target.

Just finished reading my 41st book, with 2 months yet to go still. And it’s my SCREENWRITING that has really grown by leaps as I read more. 📚

Trying something new… Just finished a vomit draft of a new feature idea. 12 days from start to finish. Not my best work, but I learned a lot along the way. 100% a proper movie, at least.
