Well, have I got an exciting bit of news to share?! (Pt 1/5) I’m happy to announce that I’m now a repped writer! I’ve got the brilliant Lesley Pollinger and Katy Loffman from Paper Lion Ltd representing me and my writing. Such a fantastic agency with experience working

@Houseofhubris Sorry for all the awful tweets I’m seeing about you from ignorant people. I hope you win today’s episode!

If you want to support the writers, we’ve set up a simple tool to email the CEOs of Netflix, Amazon, Disney and HBO Max and support the writers’ demands! actionnetwork.org/letters/suppor…

Still waking up in a cold sweat every night because of Femi and Faye #TheApprentice

Some freelance writing job posts are like, "I am TRAPPED in a WELL. If I get out I will need a GHOSTWRITER for my AUTOBIOGRAPHY. It will be 1,500 PAGES. You will be paid in CANDLE WAX."

I can’t recommend this service enough! My coach pushed me to self-confidence, pushed me to sharing my work and pushed time to carve my own, unique career:

@edithdrod Actual footage of us stressing over emails LOL

The best thing about animation writing is that taking a duvet day and watching cartoons when ill counts as important research.

Fabulous evening last at Kinky Boots by The Norfolk and Norwich Operatic Society. Phenomenal opening night!

I read a tweet that got me fucking heated, so I’m just gonna say this once: If you’re taking the time & effort to write a script, I don’t care how good it is. You are unique. You are special. You may need help to make the script stand out, but it matters. You matter. Period.

@CinemaCityNrw Loving the artwork on this!

Just announced... #Broker Preview screening plus recorded Q&A. Here's your chance to catch Hirokazu Kore-eda's stunning new film ahead of it's release date. 🎟 ow.ly/gAKz50MBQI6 #HirokazuKoreeda #BrokerMovie

@CinemaCityNrw @dannycdirector @adamsturman @Sam_D_Hoggarth You guys are such a dream! Thank you. Between the 4 of us, I know we will be back with you when we need!

@LauraDScripts @dannycdirector @adamsturman @Sam_D_Hoggarth Thanks Laura. We're so glad that you had an enjoyable evening. We'd love to be a part of these exciting plans so please let us know if we can be of help. Networking events, meetings, rehearsal space, screenings etc whatever you need :)

Thank you @CinemaCityNrw for looking after us local filmmakers, while we discussed all the exciting 2023 plans and ideas! What a gorgeous meeting room! @dannycdirector @adamsturman @Sam_D_Hoggarth

In a way 😂

Thank you for the mooch around yesterday @KarrotAnimation I’m still fan girling over the giant Sarah and Duck plushies!

Gif = how I finished signed off my 2022. I had just finished drafts of my first adaption of an original short film to picture book. Now I'm fresh headed for 2023, with some exciting projects on the horizon!

And - as someone who reads a lot of scripts: PLEASE writers, go and meet women over 40. I am sick and tired of reading stage directions like: ‘Caroline (40) is careworn, her grey hair in a bun, her sparkle long gone’… Most of the 40 yr old women I know have just had a baby, FFS!

@alice_hancock1 Wooo! One of the best feelings!

@eddbot 3/4 - that is vile. I'm not pro enough yet!

@LauraDScripts Now that you're clearly a pro at Wordle you need to level up and move to Quordle if you haven't already. There you have to solve 4 words at once!

Yes, I'm still on the Wordle train. Yes, this has made my morning. Wordle 529 2/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

@eddbot Agreed! 2 is a much sweeter victory!

@LauraDScripts You can't get better than that in wordle. Getting it in one is just luck.
