Now that all my books are back in print I wanted to offer a breakdown for anyone interested in my work to date. Current Novels: A CHILD ALONE WITH STRANGERS BOYS IN THE VALLEY GOTHIC THE THIRD RULE OF TIME TRAVEL THE AUTUMN SPRINGS RETIREMENT HOME MASSACRE SARAFINA (April '26)

If you're cremated after you die, you can be put into an hourglass and continue to participate in family game night.

@youngntragic All I know is I'm so glad I was able to read the book blindly and have that awesome reveal.

For all the people who are still complaining about Rocky being showed in the trailers

@matthewivan77 I actually worked with him on Dear White People (I was in Locations Dept.). That said, I find it REALLY hard to believe he only got 5k for a feature film. As a non-union screenwriter, I was paid 3x that for a half million dollar feature. If he did, his agent sucks.

just found out Barry Jenkins was only paid $5K for directing MOONLIGHT…

This is a shocking statistic, and the implication is not pleasant to think about if you're a writer.

Just finished a book I've been reading for months and the ending was so fucking good and now I am left in despair. Thanks for the read, @PhilipFracassi

If anyone can get hold of Congress can you let them know the dog is outside.

@Section344Lions We need a starting Safety, a starting Guard, a starting Tackle, a starting LB3, a starting Edge. If you're comfortable with Mahogany and/or Frazier, and / or Borom at the OT positions, you still need Edge, Safety, and LB3. Kerby ain't coming back. BB won't 100% until game 10.

Most of the Lions holes are now filled outside of EDGE. They have 3 EDGE players on the roster: Hutchinson, Lacy, Hassanein. It's perfectly OK to be impatient, but let's also not act like this room is anywhere near finished. From both a FA POV and Draft POV. "wHaT aRe tHeY dOiNg" as if the opener is tomorrow. Don't play stupid just to do it. Just like pre- bringing back Ya-Sin and signing McCreary & Izien ... was very apparent they needed to add bodies at DB. And they did.

@That1LionsFan I need a third option.

okay let me just ask the question flat out Do you trust Brad Holmes?

@AnthonyWriter5 Our safety position is a mess. Kerby likely isn't returning, and BB won't be back until late in the season, and even then won't be 100%. We haven't signed Maddox...so not sure we're a good deep group. We also only have 2 starting LB's with the loss of Alex, so that's a problem.

The only positional group I’m really worried about is Edge. - QB ✅ - RB ✅ - WR ✅ - TE (Could use one more, don’t need) - OL (1st round OT them ✅) - LB (OK unit could be really good with 1-2 more) - CB (Feel solid about the unit) - S (Good deep group)

@LionsFanAccount Per PFF, he was one of the lowest rated guards in the NFL last year in pass protection (as in, almost dead last), so running it back would be concerning.

DO PEOPLE HATE CHRISTIAN MAHOGANY?!

@DetroitOnLion I would argue the bigger need is Edge. We literally have one dude right now. At least with the O-line we have options, even if they're not great options.

Yes I am, but I don’t see any way around it.

@RichJohnsonNFL @AdamFerrellNFL What a toxic pos.

Free agent EDGE Joey Bosa is refusing to sign with any team whose city has declared itself a sanctuary city. Down to two options, per @AdamFerrellNFL

@LionsFanAccount I think LaPorta is more valuable than you might think. When he went out for the season the impact on the offense was shocking. Branch is a very good player who has a long recovery ahead of him, but probably the less valuable piece between the two. Campbell and Gibbs are HOF's.

Ya'll are going to DESPISE this take but I think Sam LaPorta and Branch are both insanely replaceable and Campbell and Gibbs are extremely hard to replace

@DetroitOnLion Hey, we signed someone.

Per sources, the #Lions are indeed re-signing WR Tom Kennedy and LB Trevor Nowaske.

@iceball8314 Counterpoint: There aren't a lot of quality free agents left on the market. Mostly depth pieces.

Entire fanbase is crashing out 3 days into the offseason lmfaoooo Brad feeds on this

@chriscrafty_ Welcome!

Motor city what’s good?!!!! Can’t wait to get to work and keep proving them wrong! #OnePride🦁

@AtoZ_Payton LB concerns me.

Best remaining free agents for the Detroit Lions after Day 2 of free agency atozsports.com/nfl/detroit-li…

@nolanbianchi I think the Ravens used the medical as an excuse to back out, ergo Raiders are furious (and royally screwed).

Assuming it's true that Maxx Crosby failed his physical, it's very strange that the Raiders were so aggressive in putting out the statement they did. A physical is a standard part of a trade, and yet it feels like they want it known that they're mad at the Ravens.

I can't say this enough. The goal of your logline should NOT be to simply summarize your screenplay. You need to embrace the actual goal: to get people excited to read your script. You will not do that by polishing the language or adjusting the format. You do that with the concept. The logline is the container in which you deliver the concept. It's the concept that makes the logline valuable. Without a concept, the logline is largely incidental.
