Never underestimate the power of an innocent, heart-warming message.

It’s my birthday on Tuesday — and I’m fundraising, not wishlisting.
I created the Tia Celcy Joy Fund to bring joy and celebration to Black kids in underserved communities around the world.

@showrunnerRobin This should probably be a DM but I'm writing a screenplay based on my recent divorce after being married for two decades. I hope that in a few years (maybe even months) I'm a lot less upset about it too. And smiling as big as you #cheers

Nearly 20,000 writers could go on strike as soon as midnight tonight, and shut down Hollywood.

Here’s what’s happening, and how you can pressure Hollywood executives to pay writers.

Got off the phone so pleased to be able to give a friend a great review for a job opportunity. Meanwhile, I'm experiencing MONUMENTAL guilt for asking a friend to write me a recommendation letter last min. What is it going to take for my Black ass to believe I deserve care too?

[Flavia Borges @flaviaborges]

@LTintheCity You sound so Brazilian right now. Cause for them/us it only starts after Carnaval.

[Flavia Borges @flaviaborges]

I'm the happiest when I'm writing. The end.

The 4th episode of "Sound of the River" season 1 is out. Basking in love and gratitude for the honor to play a small part in the telling of this important story. #screenwriters @YouTubeBrasil @MariaFarinha

Me: Finished! Writing is done.

Also me: I mean… I’m somewhat done with a super rough version of what will eventually become a screenplay that makes any sense.

A friendly reminder that you are someone’s favorite writer.

One of best 1-on-1 coaching I've ever had.

[Steven White @MiddleRelief]

For years, I’ve been teaching classes to train TV assistants. SC and WA & WPA, all in person, with some amazing alumni to show for it. Now, I’m finally launching digital workshops with @WritersAsstLab - follow the link for our 1st class, or sign up for 1-on-1 coaching!

Just a reminder that the female word for "wizard" is still "witch" in 2022.

It’s pretty remarkable to arrive in two different countries and feel at home at both.

YES! And shout-out to @flaviaborges on the photography. My favorite headshots to date. 🥰 #BlackGirlMagic all around

George Floyd: a man of peace.
We mourn his murder. We cry for justice. We fight the temptation to look away, to say it’s not our problem. Racism is our disease and every Black life murdered is another plea to wake up from our illusion. God help us 😭

[Flavia Borges @flaviaborges]

What we need 🖤
