I just saw a Zillow commercial about 3 people buying a house together, it was supposed to be advertising their know your buying power system. How dystopian. Hey we know that nobody can buy a house alone anymore but we can help you know EXACTLY how much you cant afford it. This is not going well.

I think I have decided to be a Crystal Palace fan. As an American who loves football I have always just rooted for random teams. Wrexham is an obvious one that I still 100% support but I never had a real PL team. After watching their last 2 games, Palace has played some extremely entertaining ball.

Every Tuesday I send out a free screenwriting lesson in The Weekly Email. I avoid cheerleading platitudes and focus on practical advice you can apply immediately. I then post them all here as a free resource for anyone to read, search, and share. storyandplot.link/emails

I've been writing professionally for almost two decades (???) including publishing 7 books (and another forthcoming) and helping run a lit mag for 7 years. I've learned some important lessons in that time. So I'm going to thread some of them here:

I only started publishing in 2023 at the age of 40. I ended that year with 4 pub’d stories and a completed MS that I began querying. I began 2024 by signing with an amazing agent. And I’m ending it with 9 pub’d stories and 8 essays. Sharing this for anyone experiencing doubt. Keep going.

When a writer says they've outlined their story, what they really mean is they've envisioned 3-4 cool scenes they now need to somehow tie together into a plot

Eventually you have to accept that no matter how many different notebooks you buy, they won’t make you a better writer. For that, you need to spend a lot of money on the right pen.

My heart breaks for trans people right now. It's a hateful, inhuman climate we're in, and we will need to all be there for one other.
