If we had some ham we could have ham and eggs, if we had some eggs.

Never taunt a tauntaun.

The trouble with Washington is that the system is designed to hire politicians, not legislators or statesmen.

48 hours in…and the response to this year’s Grey List has been incredible.

Messages from managers.
Script requests.
New connections forming.

So grateful to everyone who has embraced what we're doing here. Hold on, 'cause we're just getting started!

Things I Can Say About MFA Writing Programs Now That I No Longer Teach in One I recently left a teaching position in a master of fine arts creative-writing program. I had a handful of students whose work changed my life. The vast majority of my students were hardworking, though...

Not all of these lessons are applicable to screenwriters ... but most of them are.

I don't want us to have a strong middle class because I value mediocrity. I want us to have a strong middle class because that's how you avoid revolutions.

PETITION to have all the world governments proactively announce that they will not bail out A.I. companies that go bankrupt.

The A.I. bros could slowly deflate the bubble ... if they wanted to.

But they'll keep accelerating toward a wall because they have airbags made of tax payers.

Thanks!

haha we contain multitudes

According to the Kraft Foods corporation, I am a family of four.

It feels like humanity is coming to the end of a Fuck Around cycle and starting the next Find Out period

I feel dirty

Plan in one hand, shit in the other; see which fills up first.

I’ve been thrilled and honored and mildly horrified to be friends with Brett for decades now. He’s surprisingly sweet if you can get through the hard candy shell

His QUEEN OF THE SKY is the best kind of period piece - it’s so entertaining that you forget it’s also educational

And hell yeah to you on Last Laugh!

Here’s my humble addition to the Grey List. It’s a character drama cleverly disguised as an action thriller.

I’m gratitudemaxxing to have been selected for the Grey List.

But since we’re all old folks, I guess I should say gosh darn it, it sure is swell

This is badass. Thanks very much to Brad and the Grey List readers for curating such a stellar list.

Thanks, and right back atcha! I’m excited to see who picks up Coal Eyes

Don’t kill my dreams man

<shrug> Many of them are still in flight! Got some good news the other day but can't share yet...

These days, the bullseye is moving and covered in fog. So I'm throwing handfulls of darts every which way. :)
