During lockdown I asked a bunch of fancy writers to talk about work for a youtube series. Actually, what I said to @therealKripke was, "let's drink over zoom," so... that.
All the writers were so great and generous. You should click through and watch 'em.

Tons of people still read these writing threads, here and on my ig...
I'm thinking of putting more screenwriting ho-tos together. I'd like to put 'em somewhere that makes sense. Is @substack where folks go for writing now? Someone more online than me, give me your thoughts.

TEN THINGS ABOUT HOW TO FORMAT A SCRIPT. Based on questions I get after screenwriter twitter has a debate about em-dashes or whatever. (Which is charming. Thatās not a criticism.)
Here is what works for me and works for scripts I read when I am hiring.

One stereotype about writers that is absolutely true: after sending you a draft, every single one of them will send three follow-up emails with updated versions that supposedly contain fewer typos.

To this day the DAMN BEST introduction scene of all Supernatural episodes or any other show or movie ever belongs to Death.

One fun thing was -- they gave Death's ride a great vanity plate. If I recall (it's been EIGHTY-FOUR YEARS! Forgive me!) it said BUH-BYE. We all cracked up in post but were like... we ought to keep this scary and not let the audience off the hook so fast. So we cut the shot.

@serathegamble that moment when youāre trying to warm your bones in the shower from the NYC cold and a word forms in your pre-coffee brain. Itās strange and familiar. You bellow it out to the surprise of yourself and the chihuahua outside the door: MARGOLEM. #TheMagicians

texted @johnthemcnamara "Hey, someone's talking shit about you in Variety" because it felt like the least embarrassing way to let him know I shouted him out.
A few real mensches have helped me a ton over the years, and they all get endearingly "please shut up" when I mention it.
