πŸͺ‡ I started writing a new TV pilot today and I'm so, so excited about it. A political sci-fi family drama ✨

It's an idea that I first wrote as a 15-minute radio play about six years ago, and has been noodling in the back of my mind ever since.

Time to goooooo πŸ₯³

The sun is out, iced coffees are back, I have fun plans tonight, and I just wrote the best sentence of my life

Such a basic joy but my boyfriend and I have taken to going onto whatever streaming platform and throwing on a random mid-budget 90's film we've never heard of

They are almost always action-packed and pacy, lushly coloured in various hues of brown, and entertaining as fuck. Often Al Pacino too

So excited to watch Miss Austen in full on BBC iPlayer - another one I was really lucky to catch a preview of during post-production!

Congratulations @andreagibbs.bsky.social - it's absolutely beautiful ❀️

The more I find out about the world, I see how unfair and unkind it is. The more I find out about people, I see how multi-faceted and extraordinary we are. I know the problem is capitalism, but it's still almost impossible to reconcile.

What's your favourite art about this?

Late to post this, but this year I want to:

- screen my debut short in festivals
- production manage another short (filming in March)
- make a short for a charity (pitched)
- deliver a creative workshop in a prison
- finish my WIP feature
- write another feature
- get repped

let's go 2025 ✨

My new feature is so close to "showing people" draft!

Set in 90's New York & a family/relationship drama about a gay man growing up/escaping the mob. Spans 7 years

Any script readers experienced with these themes/worlds & happy to take a look when ready? 😊

Pls let me know quotes! (funds limited)

Gavin and Stacey’s Christmas special was a joyful reminder that TV can still be a shared experience | Frances Ryan As people fall out of love with streaming, they’re rediscovering the collective pleasure of β€˜event television’, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

My partner and I have Christmas Eve tradition where we order a massive takeaway and watch two very very different films for the first time

We just finished Paul Thomas Anderson's "There Will Be Blood"

Next up, "Hot Frosty" on Netflix

Is it all the earnest sincerity? I heard recently "Bluesky is the first hour of the party and Twitter is the last". We just have to stick around long enough to ease up on the library chat and start shitposting 🌚

What if an advent calendar is the best thing Β£2.50 can buy/be spent on a gift, actually

Searching excitedly for the right number as you count down, a sweet treat every day, a microdose of Christmas loveliness, swapping occasionally

I'll never understand people who think they're just for kids

we can make this nicer than Twitter but the only way it's going to be as good is if we all start shitposting like mad & build a library of takes

I wanna search for 'i think you should leave zipline episode' like this is Reddit

can we all commit to 50 stupid tweets each and then we'll be somewhere
