    Years ago told me not to take staffing too personally. You can do everything right and still not land the gig. You’re still a good writer. Keep going. Best advice I ever got.

    When asked what advice Amy Poehler had for young female directors she said: “Do it even if you don’t think you’re ready... a lot of women wait until they think they’re really really ready for something. And I’ve worked with a lot of guys who aren’t ready for what they’re doing.”

    I know that Mother’s Day can be hard for many people for different reasons. If you’re feeling this way and you’re in LA, meet me here. I’ll buy your ticket. And you’ll be around loving people. You’re not alone. At the box office, just say you’re a Mother’s Day guest of Ava. xo

    I accept you. You can talk about successes and failures. Or not talk at all. I ain't going nowhere. I am finally unafraid of all I inherited from you, and all of the debt I owe. You are so much more than my Mama. But you are my Mama. In all the ways. All the times. Revision.

    Thinking about the support and coddling and scolding and more support each writer needs to flourish. So this tweet is a thank you to the agents and editors who have to do all that heavy lifting for every client they represent. I know that mess ain’t easy.

    "The deal commanded attention in the industry because IMG is a corporate sibling of WME, which represents Harvey, raising the specter of conflict of interest as IMG became Harvey’s production partner."

    You aren't alone reminder thread.

    1) I'm trying, on this hiatus from writing/making , to write something different. I need to start from scratch. There is an urgency in my brain, something that keeps this idea, world, story coming to the fore. And I've noticed, all the old fear coming to fore, too.

    Why are people so cavalier about trying to get someone fired? Unemployment is serious. It’s a slippery slope to homelessness. Why would she do this over such a minor infraction?

    This is . Natasha talks alot about the challanges of writing as a minority woman, but took it upon herself to report a BW for *checks notes* eating. In uniform. Sis told her “worry about yourself,” and the “I need to speak to a manager” jumped out.
