Today is launch day for Backpacks & Baguettes - a children's #travel book that my son, Sam, and I wrote. Part narrative/part street art, it's a reminder of what it was like to be in the world before #covid19 hit. Get it on Amazon. Happy reading. #graffiti https://t.co/UWwfHYlYhQ

I consult. I teach. I write #books. On the side, I raise #oysters on the #Chesapeake. I started with a cage, some seed, and questions nobody could answer in one place. So I built the 10-module, online course I wish I'd had. It's now live. Have at it: https://t.co/lPKd8Dh2xe
Grateful and delighted that my script, Pay Dirt, has been selected as a semi-finalist at the Calgary Indie Film Awards. Logline: An aging ex-CIA operative-turned speechwriter is drawn back into the shadows when the U.S. and #China collide over #rareearths in #Africa.
Ton of fun joining the indomitable @ryanheathAI on his podcast. We talked competing #US/#China/#EU#AI narratives, why #storytelling will remain one of humanity's superpowers regardless of the AI transformation, and my screenplay, Pay Dirt. https://t.co/xdedF5CHLD
I'll be damned. My screenplay, Pay Dirt, has won the 2025 Best Feature Screenplay at the Richmond International Film Festival. Logline: A #CIA operative-turned speechwriter navigates #Washington, #SiliconValley and #Africa as the U.S. and #China race for rare earths. Timely.
The Day The Opera Curtain Came Down. I share this piece most #September11 anniversaries - in recognition that moving forward and carrying a memory can coexist. I still question the benevolence of a blue sky, but my suspicion has begun to soften. https://t.co/eK0arwMBjD
Loved hanging with KCaddy at The North Film Festival in #NYC. My screenplay, Pay Dirt, is on the market. Logline: A CIA operative-turned speechwriter navigates #DC, #SiliconValley and #Africa as the U.S. and #China race for rare-earth metals. #TNFF2025NYC

Very nice treatment of our Akademisk Boldklub story in Air Mail, Graydon Carter's magazine (former editor of Vanity Fair). This isn't #WelcometoWrexham or #TedLasso. It's something else entirely. Loving every day of our improbable journey. Go Owls.

It was a pleasure presenting to journalists from around the world at the #IMF during the IMF/WB Spring Meeting today. I covered the new power vs. old power journalistic landscape, headwinds facing the industry, and challenges and opportunities. #worldbank#media
