The Perfect Storm Approacheth!
Here. We. Gooooooooo! Looks like we'll convene the writers' room sometime in September. Before then, the show's creator and I will map out the first season game plan covering all ten episodes, character and story arcs. We're also aiming to have the pilot co-written by then. After that, it'll be smoooooooth sailing! All that…
Share Your Rejections!
Every once in a while, one of these trending hashtags will catch my eye and I'll think: "Oh, yeah. I can add to this conversation." Like, say, yesterday's #ShareYourRejections hashtag. I mean, are you kidding? The life of a writer is filled with rejection. When I first started off, I remember being fortified by…

The Calm Before the Storm!
Yep. That's what it feels like to me. There was something in the air this weekend - the sense of burgeoning buzz, a storm cloud of activity looming on the horizon. What lies ahead? Well, I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you...with kindness and ask you not to tell anyone because…

Project and Lifely Updates!
Had a meeting regarding the Untitled Awesome Project today. This one has me all kinds of excited for a two simple reasons: theme and tone. It's something this prospective sci-fi series shares with three other shows I've done in the past, specifically: Stargate: SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis, and Dark Matter. Sense of fun? Check! Sense of…

The results of our are in and the people have spoken (note: I assume the 211 votes were cast by actual people and not pets who took advantage of unattended computers and laptops)! Christian Bale came out on top with almost 43% of the vote. Michael Keaton and Adam West tied for third in a…

Christian Bale My reasoning was as follows: Bale demonstrated the most dramatic range, but West was the most likable. Keaton broke…
We’re getting a new in-canon series! Not a reboot!
Yes, it's true! Patrick Stewart made the announcement last night: Yes, you read right. An all-new in-canon Star Trek series that looks forward by rewarding the existing fanbase while also welcoming new fans to the fold. A brilliant decision by CBS. Why you would almost think they've been reading this blog! This is fantastic news…
New Look Blog! 2 Guys Don’t Win the Lottery!
As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, recent upgrades to WordPress have made managing my existing background theme more challenging. I'm no longer able to control the size of the photos I post, and the classic easy-to-navigate features have been "improved" to a more, uh, counter-intuitive alternative. As a result, after many years, I…
