@almostOKcomedy If you are not WGA, don't worry about the strike; just move forward and keep writing!

[Dave Trottier @DRTrottier]

@FinalFenwayFict @EmersonCollege @EmersonLAcenter @wheaton Thank you for the suggestion. Good luck and keep...teaching. ;-)

[Dave Trottier @DRTrottier]

@almostOKcomedy If you are not a WGA member, then write. Good luck.
