I'll start the wins ... 1. Went to Thrillerfest where we (@fringebooks) did a pre-launch of our first book, HAIL HOLY QUEENS. 2. I actually have been consistently working out for the past 2 weeks. Shocker, I know. 3. I now have a writing accountability partner. #scriptchat
Looking for: - short stories - essays/articles on topics across film, publishing, and the business of the arts - interview subjects (mostly for film and TV) Yes, we pay. 👋 Learn more: pipelineartists.com/submission-gui…
Making some changes bts to better help our finalists and winners this year and in years to come. Including: - broadening our relationships with more *good* indie producers (since we end up with a lot of indie-centric projects) and newer, well-connected—and well-respected—managers - expanding our development staff - growing our partnerships with similar platforms who share the same goals of, first and foremost, fostering talented writers - establishing a robust, hands-on mentoring system for some of our more inexperienced (yet very talented) writers to better prepare them for the realities of the industry

NEW EPISODE of the Pipeline Artists original podcast @howthearts. With screenwriter Ian Shorr. Listen now: pipelineartists.com/how-the-arts-w…
ICYMI: Last week's ep with Ian Shorr--one of the hottest screenwriters in town--dropped. Listen now! howtheartswerewon.com @SPMJM @M_S_Daniel
Saying “I don’t want to be a marketer” or “content creator” etc. “I just want to write.” Fair statement. Thing is…that’s not how it works. Never has. The burden of that is amplified now, sure, but wearing diff hats has always been the case. In everything.
NEW EP of @howthearts w/screenwriter Ian Shorr, who recently sold "71 Minutes to Sunrise" to Sony (and his script Shiver sold last year, Keanu Reeves set to star...what a run, with more to come!). Listen now: pipelineartists.com/how-the-arts-w…
Matt (@SPMJM) and Michelle (@M_S_Daniel) had me at hello when they interviewed #IanShorr on @HowTheArts Were Won. Discussed: Screenplays (Upcoming: #Shiver), Vampires, Ghostbusters, Adaptations. @PipelineArtists @pipelinemediagp howtheartswerewon.buzzsprout.com
Very grateful Ian took the time to tell some fun stories and drop advice on screenwriting *that you all should listen to* tyvm. 🎧 howtheartswerewon.com (or wherever you consume your podcasts)
NEW EP w/screenwriter Ian Shorr, who recently sold "71 Minutes to Sunrise" to Sony. His script Shiver sold last year, with Keanu Reeves set to star. He is, without embellishment, "burning up the town" as they say... It was a GREAT convo! Listen now: pipelineartists.com/how-the-arts-w…

The “AI in Hollywood” debate is exhausting. Scriptlaunch takes a smarter angle: don’t replace the writer—support them. #sponsored nofilmschool.com/scriptlaunch-r…
May 1st. Few weeks left. scriptpipeline.com
NEW PODCASTS dropping weekly on Pipeline Artists: pipelineartists.com/listen/
@rbbarnet @ScriptPipeline Will be posted within the next week or two.
Have a special screenwriter guest on this week who just closed a huge spec deal with a huge company... Will be a great ep. 🤫
"Not surprisingly, most screenwriters come to their interest in writing from a place of artistic passion, and they’re usually more focused on launching their careers, so things like legal matters are not as high on their list of priorities." pipelineartists.com/legal-agreemen…
