for any friends I have left on here, I'll be deleting this account in the next week or so - I never use this app and at this point it's just taking up imaginary internet space. follow me on insta or tiktok or threads at the same username if you're so inclined!
it is truly such an honor to be a part of the mccu (michael connelly cinematic universe) and I would not have had it any other way than to have my first tv writing credit on season 2!!! 🥲🩷 #lincolnlawyer
Thank you for all the kind tweets about season 2 of The Lincoln Lawyer. So happy to know people are really enjoying it. Congratulations to showrunners @TedHumphrey_ and @dailynrod. Some thoughts about the season below….
I see a lot of people on this app who don't work in the industry complaining that writers are dumb for striking because all we do is churn out remakes and sequels.
...that's not us. that's... the studios. we're mad at the same people. just... fyi
The WGA has never wanted to strike, but here's what our predecessors and we achieved when we had to:
1953 -- 13 weeks. First TV RESIDUALS
1960 -- 22 weeks. First FEATURE RESIDUALS, independent PENSION, HEALTH INSURANCE, 4% TV residuals
TIL when your dr tells you that you have to ask for the sudafed from behind the counter "because it can be used to make meth" they will not think it's funny when you reply with "thanks for the tip" (even tho it is HILARIOUS)
sometimes you write a pilot over the course of 6 years, and sometimes you write a pilot in just 4 days! you are a screenwriter life is unpredictable! and you're probably a little mentally unstable
agent: what's your drama sample about?
me: a group of people surviving the apocalypse.
agent: alright, cool. what about your comedy sample?
me: oh, that one's about a... group of people... suriving the apocalypse.
agent: what about a feature film sample?
me: ...huh.
