Screenwriting Tweetstorms
Screenwriting Tweetstorms Twitter is a perfect social medium for screenwriters. To waste time, of course, but the impulse to dash off a thought here or there is pretty common to writers who traffic …

It was so damn depressing to watch every TV writer who was willing and eager to have open, intelligent conversations about their process get hounded off social by a combination of aggressive stans and belligerent wannabes defending the right to be a shithead to creatives
It says something about the state of affairs that my first reaction was "Jobs down 27%? Not as bad as I expected!"
TV & Film Writing Jobs Really Have Plummeted Since 2020
If it feels like there are far less writers working in film and television nowadays, that's because there are.

Last week we hosted fellow future PanCam operators from the Open University and MSSL (UCL). We were training them to operate AUPE for the field trial and testing out software we’ve been working on. AUPE is the Aberystwyth University PanCam Emulator. It is very 🧵 1/4
We have an announcement. Tomorrow is Dounby Show Day which is a local public holiday in #Orkney. Orkney Library & Archive will be CLOSED ALL DAY so the staff can dress in their finest outfits and stroll around the park looking at all sorts of bullocks. 🐂 See you on Friday.
Once again, I come back to the fact these guys have created a situation where one of the UK's leading, cis female athletes is scared to go to the loo alone, and the fact that they are celebrating this as a step forward for women's rights.

James Bond producer shares update on 007 casting: ‘It’s got to be really different’
Forty years ago, in 1986, NYC suffered over 1,600 homicides. Homicides would peak at over 2,200 a few years later. There were 305 in 2025.
Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

You can/should read Emily Wilson's latest take on the Odyssey, but I'm logging on to convey my hairdresser's reaction. She was AGHAST that Nolan, with his million $ budget, gave Matt Damon ONLY 6 hair extensions. As a result, his hair did not blow around properly, & that ruined the film for her.
Friends in #publishing! If someone's looking for an #agent for a YA manuscript, do they want to look in the main Writers and Artists Yearbook, or the Children's Writers and Artists Yearbook????

Mass Lobby for Trans Equality - 9th September 2026
The law around trans equality is fundamentally broken. Government inaction is hanging trans people and organisations out to dry - with a confusing mess of challenging rules and lawfare.

Good morning unless you run some kind of AI consulting thing that isn't going so hot
Some people saw themselves getting in on the ground floor of AI in creative writing as an industry, made their lil LLCs and canva flyers, and are now mad that they had a bad idea and everyone thinks they're silly.

I am bang in favour of neo-Nazis reforming, or of any repentant person getting a chance to do better in life. But, as a friend who works in improving life for ex prisoners says, if you were convicted for embezzlement, your redemption does not mean you're entitled to a finance job.
Medical advances. All of them. I was told in 2006 when I went into a t1 diabetic coma that if I'd showed up to ER in state I was in 20 years before, I'd be dead. We got a COVID vaccine in a YEAR. Spouse has a friend w/a major brain aneurysm who SURVIVED. And no one smokes inside anymore!!!!!!!!!
