Just found the best #MoviePodcast: @BTScreenplay
Interesting, civil, and thought provoking.
Four individuals who NEVER talk over one another. Rare in podcasting.
Well done - I look forward to more!

Happy Pride! Here’s a playlist I made featuring a bunch of my favorite queer artists. Listening in order is very much recommended for narrative and musical cohesion (the writer nerd in me can’t help giving my playlists a story arc). Enjoy! 🏳️🌈
