Official since 2011. No story ideas please. Other than for promotion and PR I'm not here a lot, mostly on Patreon, so posts there will get a faster reply

From time to time folks will see a discussion of my work and say "I didn't know you worked on (fill in the gap)", or don't know I worked on *anything* after the 90s. Hence, this video, updated for 2026, but which doesn't have the upcoming new movies.

@straczynski I'm sorry!

Or you're welcome?

I'm not sure which is appropriate here lol

@supergirlmaid @danvasc2 @Nerdrotics Actually the account has now been suspended so there is stuff Twitter can do.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

So a guy named Ryan J. Clarke (at least that's the name he uses on Medium) is impersonating me online at https://t.co/0SSJbe50tL by using my profile photo and switching the first letters of my first and last name. I've reported to X but anyone wants to dial in, feel free.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

@supergirlmaid @danvasc2 @Nerdrotics That doesn't mean it should just pass unremarked.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

I'm not worried, I can take me....

[Beholder242 (Brett T) @beholder242]

@straczynski At least you’re not having knock-down drag-out arguments with yourself. That would be truly concerning.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

When you're so tired at the end of a long day that you can't stand even talking to yourself.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

@TheSpyFamily No, there was no relationship or point of inspiration there.

[Peter O'Hanlon @peteohanlon]

@straczynski As long as she tidies up the entrails afterwards, all's good.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

If the money's right.

[Scott Advani @ScottAdvani]

@straczynski Does she answer to Tessmacher, perchance?

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

Domestic abuse.

[Mark J Engleson @MarkJEngleson]

@straczynski My partner is helping me dress like an adult.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

I appreciate the offer, but I've had the same assistant working for me for something on the order of 13 years, and other than the mid-day sacrifices to Ba'al, she's been great.

[Kathryn (I Could Not Prevent It) @NotEnchantment]

@straczynski Are you hiring an assistant? I have crippling depression but moderate organizational skills.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

An announcement will be coming soon. For now: it's a huge book, a love story wrapped inside a crime drama wrapped inside a supernatural thriller that takes place in two timelines that converge as the mysteries are revealed and all hell breaks loose. Took over a year to write.

[Anthony Usher @AnthonyUsher]

@straczynski A new novel. When do we find out more???

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

That's one of the things I plan to get going for '27.

[Mark Fortner @phidias51]

@straczynski Are you planning on adapting any of Harlan's work for TV?

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

No.

[Raül Sala Naranjo @V12Stig]

@straczynski Were you involved in any way shape or form in th Masters of the Universe movie?

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

If you wanna stop looking bad, for chrissakes stop getting dressed in the dark allatime.

[Fillard Millmore @PoloniumTurd]

@straczynski If I'm feeling motivated I might get off the couch next year...stop making me look bad.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

Two of the TV series projects are being developed by US streamers/networks, the third is for the UK but will likely be available in the US. Also have a new novel coming out.

After setting aside my career for nearly three years to get Harlan's work out there, we roar back in '27.

[Lawrence D. Loeb @LDLoeb]

@straczynski Do you know if all/any of these will be available in the US?

Also hoping you get Doctor Who.

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

I have several TV shows in active development, and two movies I worked on coming out in 2027.

[Lee @obsoleteZombie]

@straczynski are there any new shows that you are doing right now?

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

Sugar substitutes.

[Doug Hutchinson @DougHutchinso19]

@Jringo1508 @straczynski @Oilfield_Rando Wish I knew more about what caused the decline of the Centauri republic....

[J. Michael Straczynski @straczynski]

When you create Babylon 5 and sometimes dip your toe into YouTube reactions because obviously, and randomly click into one, and it lands on "J. Michael we know you're watching!" and you realize the universe is conscious and more fundamentally dangerous than you suspected.
