Not trying to jinx it, but I wrote pages today. And I'm making headway on this pain in the butt scene where I stalled last time. So 🤞. #Scriptsky

@theartofcharts.bsky.socialWhen I lived in the U.S. (many years ago), I read about Border Patrol officers vandalising water stations in the desert - and that always stayed with me. Who does that?
When I started writing, that became one of the kernels for DUST ON DIRT
@timwestland.bsky.socialSCROOGE: REQUIEM
When Scrooge breaks his vow, a vengeful 4th Spirit infects Tiny Tim with a Zombie plague that turns London's poor into monsters, forcing Scrooge to hunt and kill the boy before London falls.
@leahfromsd.bsky.socialI was trying to do follow-up RTs on each of my pitches on the inspiration and this one is hard.
To be honest, I had a vivid, strange dream when I was 15 and I didn't fully understand what it meant until I tried to write this script 23 years later in the wake of my friend Sandra's death.
@pezscreenwriting.bsky.socialLatest on the action-comedy spec
Wasn't happy w/how a scene/sequence was playing out, so went back and rewrote it. Good fix for now.
Back to "It's a first draft. Don't obsess. Just write it" mode

@timwestland.bsky.socialOBEAST
A morbidly obese teen telekinetically controls her disembodied fat to kill all who have bullied her
A totally tubular, double pop-collared homage to those wacky 1980s teen horror flicks you loved!
Think "Carrie" meets "The Blob"
@leahfromsd.bsky.socialThis script honestly started as a killer robot story, then I hit page 60 and realized how boring and overdone that was.
So I did a page one rewrite of something earnest and vulnerable about how we fully heal from loss and the power of sexual fulfillment in a relationship.
@waynew.bsky.socialCEREAL KILLERS
When their latest victim escapes, two incompetent serial killers are forced to start over in a small town, where they struggle to fit in, evade the police, and find someone - anyone - to kill.

@theartofcharts.bsky.socialDUST ON DIRT

@theartofcharts.bsky.socialFAR AS THE CROW FLIES
A guilt-plagued school-shooting survivor and an emotionally-numb goth become unlikely 'fruit-pickers for a visa' on a remote orchard — but when their predatory boss kidnaps them, they must rekindle each other’s will to live.
Big Break QF
@theartofcharts.bsky.socialNO GHOSTS TONIGHT by Adele Smaill
In a bid to get home, a young exile forces her way aboard an inflatable dinghy full of asylum seekers, who must band together to evade capture and survive a deadly Channel crossing.
I wish this one wasn't topical, but it is.
@jessedofficial.bsky.socialTHE SPLITTER AND THE JOINER (short film)
An ancient couple with mystical powers to heal and destroy live peacefully on their mountain until a coal mining company threatens their land.
@leahfromsd.bsky.socialThis script was inspired by my first trip back home after the last election to visit my conservative family.
We all wish there was a way to change the minds of the people we love, but that's a blade that cuts both ways.
