When people ask me if I ever picture an actor when writing a role (it's only and always Catherine O'Hara)

Totally agree with these sentiments! Also: You're one of the few writers I know who doesn't need this advice
Just got my first set of notes back and was very impressed!
After losing her husband of 50 years, a feisty Jewish widow and the tightly-wound Chinese-American restauranteur who has fed her family on Xmas for years, fall into an unexpected romance.

I did! I shushed my imposter syndrome and submitted!
Jane, yes I got over myself and submitted ๐
Thank you! My writing partner (Shari Albert) and I, hope to make the feature version soon!

Love that my tweet gets posted every year! Also, our proof of concept for this (Double Happiness) is screening at Lincoln Center on Jan. 27!
I will celebrate your vague good news!
Fellowship application has been submitted! May now go back to bed....
I will apply (even if it takes me all weekend to write those fellowship essays lol)!
Trying to get up the nerve to submit to a writing fellowship with the first tv pilot I've written in 5 years.... #scriptsky
This past year, I've gone from envying writers who have placed in screenwriting contests to feeling jealousy over Sundance Film Festival announcements. I'm leveling up!!
Congrats!! Any positive news is welcome no matter how vague!
So... I finished a first draft of my pilot today. I already know I need to rebreak act 1, but that's a problem for another day! #scriptsky
But you can fake it better!
Am trying to write a first draft without a detailed outline and it is... not going well. Not sure how the pantsers do it! #scriptsky
Am largely improvising it, so it may be a beautiful mess lol
Broke ground on a new script tonight and after a year spent reworking old projects, it feels really good (and only a bit terrifying) #scriptsky
Sorry I missed this! Are these meetups monthly?
Haven't even opened mine
Same
Ugh. Am deep in AFF withdrawal. Any reccs on how to return to the regular, non-cinematic day job?
Just threw out my feature outline and shifted to a different project (and different format). Ending 2025 with creative chaos. #scriptsky
The west coast contingent of my short film (Double Happiness) at Newport Beach Film Festival! Follow us on IG at DoubleHappiness_shortfilm for updates! #filmsky #scriptsky
Imposter syndrome: begone!
Need to activate my inner extrovert for two film festivals this week. Pray for me ๐
My short film, DOUBLE HAPPINESS, won the audience award at Soho Film Festival!!! #scriptsky #filmsky
Thanks Nick!
