I didn't see the specific example. Had it actually had giant kittens, I would have seen it twice.

If you are an English person who pronounces Z as zed, doesn't it throw off the rhyming of the alphabet song?

I follow a bunch of *actual* writers (aka ppl who write) to motivate myself, but it often has the opposite effect. I see your cool pool party, and I can swim, but drowning seems more likely. #ScriptSky

I'm a few blocks over at You Can Do This Blvd and Why Aren't You Circle. Heading to YouTube to watch "Hi Ren" for the 100th time to remind myself there are more productive places to live.

The sequel can be the guy who decided you need to remove the left front tire of a PT Cruiser to change the battery.

Look away, West Coast. They put this under "Show Biz" instead of "What Are You Doing?" because they know I'm a slacker. #ScriptSky

Where are the screenwriting Twitch streamers? Seems like a platform writers would flock to, yet a search yields few results. #ScriptSky

Congrats! For us, Cricket & Tilly filled the Dipper/Mabel gap. Gramma reminded me of my Appalachian mother-in-law. Plus, it's just funny as hell. My daughter & I still quote "Tilly's Goat."

I was living under a rock 2 yrs ago & missed the "Hi Ren" video. I've since watched a few dozen times. What's striking abt it, aside from me crying every time, is how it follows story structure. Even if you've seen it, try analyzing w/ a writer's lens. youtu.be/s_nc1IVoMxc?...

Left one. Lighter, singular focus which fits the name. Right one is darker, scattered, uneven.

Friend: You know, you'd have a lot more money if you stopped buying things for strangers.

...the back of STEFNAE, 22. The kind of girl who'd hold your fast food bag out the drive thru window and never look at you because she's talking to a co-worker. She'll forget the barbecue sauce again, but you still kinda wanna marry her. #Scriptsky

I had to reply to an email full of corporate speak like "action items," "workflow efficiencies," & "next steps." I wanted to change my bullet points to vomit emojis. Talking to mgmt is so icky. It's meetings to discuss old meetings & set up new ones. Alexa, play "Hey Julie" by Fountains of Wayne.

If that's the vibe, it's a good indicator that you're the coolest person there. Be you.
