The Roaring Twenties but make it the 2020s A case for September, 1920s in NYC, and this week's excerpts

My weekly newsletter (free) is here just in time for a timeline cleanse! It has excerpts about two parties in the 20s—a century apart. I want to connect with readers & creators who appreciate stories full of heart. Give this week a chance and see if it’s worth a follow

I’ve been regularly posting my original writing on Substack for the past month. A small community is forming and it’s so exciting! Would you help me spread the word? Literally this week my FMC caught her husband trying to flee to Switzerland in 1922 open.substack.com/pub/denizcam

Recently read It Lasts Forever And Then It’s Over. Beautifully written and the post-apocalyptic world is kind of a metaphor about grief, so make sure to be in the right mindset

One of the best fics i’ve read. Thank you @writerpen.bsky.social

HEY WRITERS: Tony Gilroy will not be releasing the Andor scripts due to AI scraping concerns (understandable but sad), but the script for season 2 episode 9, "Welcome to the Rebellion," is now available for download on Disney's Emmy consideration site: assets.debut.disney.com/documents/An...

JAMES!!

I started a new Substack!! It’ll include all kinds of my writing (novels, scripts etc.) and if you like romance, multi-generational stories, and writing in general, join me here: denizcam.substack.com

I’ll basically be venting about how much I love writing and also can’t stand it sometimes

Feel better, Pen!! I’m so sorry that this type of treatment not only exists but is justified by its participants

This is truly a dark age we’re living in & it’s been coming at us at light speed

If this ain’t love, I don’t know what is

The hateful, xenophobic, and anti-Muslim attacks on Zohran Mamdani and our Muslim colleagues cannot go unanswered and must stop.

Anti-Muslim speech and its normalization undermines the safety, dignity, and rights of our communities and erodes our fundamental democratic values. We must reject hate.

STAY, he says. OMG

YOU ALL WE SHOT A MOVIE!!!

We hit our goal!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

We’re so so close to our goal ($1,800 to go) and would really appreciate your help!! The team has come together on passion project rates, we just have to pay for things like location and lenses and set and lighting etc!

May the Fourth be with you all!! This is your reminder to call out space Nazis and also watch Andor

I was at TJ’s when someone started complaining about the lack of romcoms—the 90s, early 00s ones.

And here’s the thing: I’m making one in Brooklyn in May!!

We’ve raised $4,600 and need to raise a bit more! Please spread the word. Honestly, anything helps

I will howl at the moon when they get back together

Paid my dues to the Romance Gods & did a midnight release for Emily Henry’s latest book with @hiremeimfunny.bsky.social

Ahhh thank you so so much for spreading the word!!! 💕

Especially for the attn of my #reylo crew

We have a teaser in the link, by the way! It’s me in a frilly top, traversing Brooklyn and looking for my dark brooding guy (paying my respecs to @rianjohnson.bsky.social : our lead guy wears all-black at all times)

My romcom pilot placed at a festival, and now it’ll be a short film/proof-of-concept.

Get ready for some Strangers-to-friends-to-lovers!! Yearning!! Countdowns!! NYC!! It’s all here

I need your help to spread the word (pls give it a like or share),& help us get to our goal! Any amount counts!! 🎬

re-upping my position that raimi’s spider-man 2 is the single best superhero ever made, one of his best movies, and also the closest thing anyone has ever done to putting a silver age comic directly on screen

What happened again?
