Comedy writer. Still trying to learn the difference between teal and turquoise. Can I pet your dog?

“Hi. I need a lipstick for my mom.”

Ulta: Sure. What color does she like?

“No you misunderstand. The lipstick goes on my face so my mom looks at it and assumes I have my shit together.”

Ulta: Oh honey, I got you. This shade’s called Lady Danger.

“I’LL TAKE IT.”

@RWWFilm @FilmFreeway The screenplay. We’re also in pre-production on a proof-of-concept short for it. Crazy and fun process.

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

We're celebrating a little good news. Big thank you to our draft readers aka the Typo Titans and of course, Flickers' Rhode Island International Film Festival. And thank you, @FilmFreeway for the fun dashboard announcement. :) #screenwriting

@jakethornton Excellent. I think this is the support group for me. If you could just point me to the cookies.

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

@TahhanSolo @LAPDHQ Very glad to hear it.

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

@TahhanSolo @LAPDHQ Oh my god is that Audrey? That must’ve been terrifying. I hope she’s alright.

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

You too, MacMaster!

@LukeBarnett Just got back from the Stowe Story Labs Retreat in Connemara, Ireland. Came home with a new comedy script and many many photos of sheep. Many photos.

On my flight to London, passengers & crew worked together to SOLVE AN IN-FLIGHT MYSTERY…whose freaking phone was blasting classical music. And not the good kind but that baroque stuff that precedes an attack by a demon-possessed babydoll. I’m full-on Jessica Fletcher now.

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

Congratulations, Brad!! Looking forward to seeing it.

[Brad M Johnson @RWWFilm]

I've been moved by the response to our film - the kind words and support has been amazing.

If you haven't yet, you can check it out on #YouTube (link in the QT thread below).

And, as always, RTs/QTs are the primary way we can overcome the algorithm here, so they're appreciated!

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

GUYS GUYS GUYS. We’re going to Ireland! Prepare for me to be INSUFFERABLE. Ex: saying words like insufferable. You’ve been warned.

Thanks to everyone who read drafts for us and told us to keep going even after the cookies ran out! #screenwriting #scriptchat

Crying into a bag of Oreos and writing my memoirs the way my parents always feared

[Rebecca @rebeccawwrites]

every woman writing comedy isn't writing "the next Fleabag" & every woman writing dark comedy/horror isn't "the next Emerald Fennell". The way we speak of female creatives is so tedious & limiting, we are much more than copies. We aren't "the next", we are our own voices

How much emotional pressure does the human body need to endure before it turns into a diamond?

IT FINALLY HAPPENED. I was on a plane when they paged for a doctor. Shout out to the @JetBlue 888 crew and the doctor who stood almost the whole 5hrs caring for the very ill passenger. I hope the passenger, the crew, and the doctor all get a much needed rest.

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

Hello! It’s a tepid 400°F here in L.A. Dogs are wearing heat-resistant booties. All the coffees are iced. Traffic is extra cranky. Found a shady spot to write pages & prep for our general mtg tomorrow. Please…I beg the gods of 1st look deals…let the cafe be air conditioned!

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

@Theperfectdark Oh my god. You’re right! I’m gonna put on my yellow rain slicker and climb on through. Somebody check on me in a few weeks. :P

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

We took out our clothes dryer to replace it, except the new one isn’t coming until next week and now there’s a deep, dark hole in our wall…so anyway, does anyone want to interview me for a horror movie about a woman who finds a Hell portal behind her clothes dryer?

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

Re: Hollywood general meetings…
Ask me to snag you a napkin while we’re on line in a coffee shop, I’ll give you napkins PLUS a concise, hilarious rundown of who I am AND what I’m doing today. In a general mtg? I forget my own name for the first 90 seconds. #writerslife

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

@storyandplot Thanks! I think the message here for all writers is….cookies win things. :P

[Kelly Anelons @kellyanelons]

Whenever I’m waiting for big news like a comp announcement, I always have an awesome cookie ready. If I don't win….I still get a treat! You can tell by my face that I fully expected to just eat my consolation cookie. 😳 But we won!
