I’m super excited Black Rose is a selected short for the @AustinActionFe1 !! I’m in such great company with films from all over the world, and can’t wait to meet everyone in Austin. If you’re going, shoot me a DM and let’s talk shop! #womeninmartialarts #austinactionfilm

Happy Int. Women’s Day 2026! In the industry? Celebrate by reading a female-authored script from the 2026 Grey List (link in comments.) FUN FACT: 53% of the scripts on this year’s list are written by women! More voices at the table means better stories for all of us.

Thank you for the kind words, @jryoumans! So glad the workshop was helpful.
The #LoglineWorkshop with @MerridithAllen and @jeannevb was darn good! Multiple aha moments. Thank you both! It felt like being in a college class for screenwriters! Thank you, @PipelineArtists, @jeannevb, and @MerridithAllen! #screenwriters #screenwriting

Replying to @jryoumans
Yes, those are a challenge. I'm not saying this as a plug, but just as something that's really helped me ... @MerridithAllen teaches a Logline Workshop for us and the next one is Wed. She is AMAZING! #scriptchat

Beyond pleased to have done this interview with Allison Norlian and Kody Leibowitz... We focus so much on narrative films, screenwriting, and publishing, but there are so many great--and important--docs like this one out there. *and it's true, the film looks like a big budget studio movie because of @valentinavee...I was texting Allison while watching like "wait, why does this look unbelievable?" Drops next week! pipelineartists.com
Coming next week: An exclusive (well, sorta) interview with the filmmakers behind the upcoming documentary Meandering Scars, produced and directed by Allison Norlian and Kody Leibowitz. (including a very special shoutout to their DP, @valentinavee) #documentary

Let's end the weekend with some words of wisdom from Paul Haggis, the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Crash ✨ “I like asking myself difficult questions — I don’t think writers should write about answers, I think they should write about questions.” #WritingCommunity

Proud owner of one of these. It's been one of my primary mugs over the years. 10/10 highly recommend.
