Just to clarify, there are NOT people fucking out here at Paramount. I should’ve said there are PEOPLE OUT HERE FUCKING. No wait. I’m sorry. I’m still off the clock.

Whenever we do go back to work, let’s make sure when we turn a script into the studio to call it our best and final draft regardless of the shape it’s in

Thrilled with the tentative agreement! We’ll keep selling shirts until our union says the strike is officially over. Then we’ll keep selling SAG-AFTRA shirts until their strike is officially over. About to hit $100k for Entertainment Community Fund but won’t stop ‘til we’ve all got deals

As the dust on this strike settles one thing has become clear. The deal took roughly 10 days. 10 days. That’s it. The studio CEOs got serious and we had a deal in 10 days. When those 10 days happened was not the decision of the writers. It was the decision of the AMPTP.

One day I will be thrilled to shut down this store since that’ll mean both the WGA and SAG-AFTRA got fair deals. But that hasn’t happened yet. So I’m gonna keep selling shirts and raising money for the ECF until it does.

Always one of my favorite festivals to be a part of ever since I attended as a grad student at UT Austin a million years ago. Sad not to make it to #AFF30 in person this year. I will very much miss the panels, the script talk and the queso.

This will be hard to believe, but there was a time when studios wanted to make and distribute films. They accepted the risk that some would fail, others would profit. It was a wild time.

The most I’ve ever heard my daughter laugh is me telling her the story of how I was 25 yrs old and told my grandma I’m trying to be a comedy writer and she took a long pause… then said “but you’re not funny.”

Thanks to Cole for inviting me into his substack to talk shop! Some great insight in here from a number of writers and authors.
