✍️ Writers of Bsky: Instead of “what IP do you want to write for” I have a better question — What NICHE IP do you want to write for? The IP that you’re sure no one cares about but you.
I have a list:
- Scarecrow and Mrs King
- The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh
- Doyle’s The Lost World
- JAG (not NCIS)
We're one of the suggested titles for the British Fantasy Awards for the audio work (fiction) category! It would be an honour if you considered voting for us.
👏👏👏
I was head writer of Netflix's Jentry Chau Vs The Underworld - and nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Writing!
I created live-action horror-comedy mockumentary series Murder for Dummies, which has won several awards and is now free on YouTube!
I co-developed and was head writer of Dogs In Space, which the New York Times described as one of the Top Three Netflix Cartoons You Should Be Watching!
I spent two years as a writer on The Amazing World of Gumball - one of the episodes I co-wrote, The Copycats, won two British Animation Awards!
Apparently it's #PortfolioDay?
I'm a writer! I write for animation and live action, and for all age groups! I was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Writing this year! I put all of my skill points into storytelling! Hire me to do good words at you!
Never thought I'd say this, but if you're looking for a timely read that features power struggles between kings and the Church during the Avignon Papacy, you might like my novel The Chatelaine.

A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)
More context on this #Artemis II image:
* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right
* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:

They said it would take 193 years to clean London’s air. We did it in nine. 💨
London has now met legal limits for nitrogen dioxide air pollution.
I was trying to figure out what show he was talking about and then realized it was Wooden Overcoats and I had already listened to the whole series. Whatever awards it has won were far fewer than how much it deserved, that was a legendary British sitcom right there
Some EXCELLENT news: musicians, writers and artists of all kind had been threatened with legalised theft.

Only work with that rogue K. Barnes & his dastardly property if you want innovation that feels accessible and timeless, characters both sharply specific and universal in their appeals, laughs a minute that still make you cry & warm your heart, and an audience that loves the above beyond desperation.
I didn’t know I had an arch-nemesis until I started playing Pokopia, but I’m certain this game was specifically created to ruin me.
Here's a dive into how the new Pokemon game deploys the fundamentals of interactive storytelling to life-ruining effect.

What if we made a sitcom that was British? We may never know what that would be like, but it's fun to think about.
If anybody would like to commission the TV version of an award-winning independent British sitcom that ran for 4 x seasons, well, I've got one. It's a podcast, you can listen to it right now for free. We still get fan mail and donations every day.
Let's make more narrative comedy, please.
