#scriptchat so- I have started writing a really dark character that I find having to take frequent breaks from. Anyone else feel the darkness/creep when writing in areas you don’t visit often? #scriptsky

#scriptsky I HATE THIS character. But he is in my head. A cold, calculating sociopath. Beneath his calm, polite exterior lies a chilling lack of empathy and a terrifying gift for mimicry. Patrick manipulates those around him, especially women, through emotional charm and careful observation.

#scriptsky. 24 pages short of my target feature length of my new script. A Psychological Thriller -Frozen Lies- A man drives west with a cooler full of bodies and a plan to erase his past, but as survivors close in, his mask of normalcy shatters. “Some monsters don’t hide. They rehearse.”

#scriptsky. This is very cool. Guardrails has moved into the next round! Congrats to my fellow semifinalist. Good luck the rest of the way! (I will not tag them and let them wake to the news!)

#scriptsky real quick advice needed: Do I go for a cinematic/personal or technical tone to pitch myself and project to a producer in a 1-2 minute video.

#scriptsky. From my Blacklist coverage. Some great, encouraging stuff. “Trending toward Sci-Fact.” I like that. I got dinged really hard on 2 things. Neither fatal flaws.

One of my WIPs. - Frozen Lies - A frozen body. A drifter with too many explanations. As a haunted detective digs deeper, the line between victim and monster begins to blur in a case colder than the corpse. Based on actual events. #scriptsky #firstpagefriday

#scriptsky - So this happened! I got a request for concept material for Recapture/Nexus from a production company. They have a lead and a director in mind. Not what I expected to wake up to on a Mon...er... Tuesday morning.
