Ian Shorr: "Something for every screenwriter to remember: no one has ever said, ‘That movie was boring as shit, but at least it didn't have any plot holes.’ Think about emotion first, plot second, and Cinema Sins never." #screenwriting

Writers who submit to competitions: It's really helpful to have several scripts you're submitting. When we see the same scripts year after year it makes us wonder why...and you will not get signed off one good script so....please write more!!

Eat dessert first. If you're having a hard time finding your way into a script, write the fun scenes first & save the harder ones for later. It helps you get into the groove & find the tone & characters' voices and makes tackling the hard stuff easier.
Best writing (or life) advice you ever got? Would love to inspire folks!

I had forgotten about this! Months ago, sat down with my pal @hudsonphillips for his @Scriptblast podcast, and we did a deep dive on on the different mediums for which I've written. Check it out! #WritingCommunity #writing
New episode of the podcast now up!
Don't miss my interview with multi-medium writer, @daccampo on the ScriptBlast Screenwriting Podcast where we talk about genre-fiction, making comics and all kinds of fun but surprisingly deep geeky stuff. Find it here: buff.ly/3jomvMz

Just remember, the screenplays that win contests, are not always the screenplays that get produced, and the writers who win contests, are not always the writers who get hired.

A logline should SELL the story, not tell the story. Don’t overcomplicate it. Focus on what will hook a reader’s attention. #screenwriting
