@Coverfly I assisted @MigdolSteve through a couple of drafts of notes and Skype conversations on his script "The Purple Heart Battalion", making @Coverfly Top 2%.
One of the finest screenplays I've consulted on in 6 years with @ScriptReaderPro. Proud to help him.

Friends and family of 30-year-old Lauren โElโ Cho, who went missing near Joshua Tree National Park in June, are asking people to spread the word about her disappearance. https://t.co/QX2AjUJ7ZN
So proud of "The Purple Heart Battalion"! Thanks to the Finalist placement in the @PAGEawards, it's now in the top 2% on @Coverfly. These heroic Japanese-American soldiers fought racism and fascism; I hope this is step toward their story being told. https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
@MigdolSteve@PAGEawards Steve, I'd love to say it was my tutelage that got you there ('though I hope I helped a bit!), but the reason you aced @PAGEawards is it's one of the best scripts that's come to me for consultancy in the past 6 years.
Well done. Well deserved. (Now, someone film it, please!)
So excited that "The Purple Heart Battalion" is a Finalist in the @PAGEawards! Thank you, judges! Congrats to the other Finalists. #RepresentationMatters#AAPI https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
We also encourage everyone to research the 100th Infantry Battalion and the MIS (Military Intelligence Service) when learning about the 442nd Regimental Combat Team. #goforbroke
@danieldaekim Thanks for sharing this! Often overlooked were the Nisei men and women who served in the Military Intelligence Service, as well as the soldiers of the 100th Battalion who paved the way for the 442nd. https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
@CAPEUSA@goldhouseco Thanks for posting this! Also remember the Nisei men and women of the Military Intelligence Service, and the soldiers of the 100th Battalion who paved the way for the 442nd. https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
On this first day of #AsianHeritageMonth , Iโm thinking of the 442nd RCT โ a segregated World War II unit made up entirely of Americans of Japanese ancestry.
@SecDef Thanks for posting this! These incredibly brave men and women (in MIS, WAC, ANC, etc.) were proud Americans who fought to prove their loyalty. Meeting and caring for these vets inspired me to write a screenplay: https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
@JGreenblattADL I've been fortunate to meet and care for a number of these veterans. They're amazing people who've witnessed horrible things, yet somehow see good in the world. They inspired me to write a film about them. https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
A powerful reminder of the intertwined history of Jews and Asian Americans. We are thankful for the bravery of these Japanese-American soldiers and their role in liberating Dachau 76 years ago. https://t.co/msDHsnz5ua
@JimLaPorta@USArmy Asian-Americans have defended the U.S. since the War of 1812. Sharing the stories of their bravery is one way to #stopAsianhate. https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
@MuseZack The script exists.
Itโs called โThe Purple Heart Battalionโ, written by an upcoming screenwriter from Hawaii called Steve Migdol, who came to me last year for some notes on it. I helped talk him through two revisions, and itโs one of the best scripts Iโve read in recent years.
