How The Arts Were Won
@howthearts
A @PipelineArtists featured podcast at the intersection of politics, culture, and the arts. Hosted by @SPMJM and @M_S_Daniel. Most opinions welcome. 🎭
Coming soon-ish: A @PipelineArtists interview with my favorite [redacted] in the [redacted] industry and I'm actually, maybe for the first time ever, a little nervous about writing interview Qs.😱 Dropping in summer. Can't wait. pipelineartists.com
Another shoutout to the architect of this new edition of Pipeline, @agglmusic. We’re still adding some decoration, some backend functions, but finally have a site that feels “special”—and most of all, properly explains what we do and why we’re different. 🦊…
First day of the new site has been largely uneventful, which is exactly what we were hoping...no glitches! For those of you new to Script Pipeline or the company in general, check out the new PMG landing page for all things Pipeline: pipelinemediagroup.com
Another reminder: Pipeline Media Group (Script/Book/Film/Pipeline Artists and Symposium) is independent and not owned by some Mysterious Corporate Entity™️. We've had the same dedicated team for years who genuinely love discovering and developing new writers and filmmakers. A…
How does it feel to write fantasy-noir? It feels like being genre homeless on Amazon! I had an absolute blast chatting with Michelle & Matt.

"Alarm clock openings were never in style. They're not in style now. They will never be in style." - @SPMJM New on #PipelineArtists: pipelineartists.com/hard-truths-yo… #screenwriting #scriptchat
NEXT WEEK! Another free 1-on-1 #Symposium session, this time for screenwriters... Join Michael Peterson (Phoenix Pictures) and @ScriptPipeline Executive Director @SPMJM as they discuss the current state of development through a producer's lens. symposium.pipelineartists.com/event/one-on-o…
With most sites (basically the last few remaining...) discussing screenwriting craft and the business of Hollywood shutting down, let us know what type of subject matter you'd like us to cover in future articles. Specific industry Qs no one seems to clearly answer? Advice for…
Also: I'll be moderating this #Symposium panel on June 10th with producer Michael Peterson (VP @ Phoenix). If you have specific Qs, join us then! (or drop some here and I'll include in advance) @PipelineArtists symposium.pipelineartists.com/event/one-on-o…
Every screenwriter should be like:
FWIW, I haven't seen the current level of excitement in the marketplace for feature spec material since at least 2022. There is a real hunger out there for great, unique material. Especially scripts can attract top-tier actors, as packaging is often still key in selling it.
How many submissions does Fringe Press have? Get the truth from @LMGBooks. Full video episode is on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
To the screenwriters lamenting the Nicholl process: - A lot of managers I know (the majority tbh) don’t care about the Nicholl anyway because they aren’t known for—and have never been known for, as far back as I can remember—picking “commercial” scripts. - Lots of Nicholl…
!!!!!! Yay Laura! We JUST had her on an episode too in March. Listen here: howtheartswerewon.com. ✍️
Okay. That “cool news” we had mentioned is now official! It’s not our biggest success story all-time (yet) but it’s one we’re awfully proud of, and writer Laura Bensick deserves so much 👏 for her tenacity and willingness to pivot as a writer…. A timeline: ▶️ Laura Bensick’s…
"I’m sorry, or you’re welcome …" Things I hear @SPMJM say often. 😎 You might want to listen to him. pipelineartists.com/good-advice-yo… #scriptchat #screenwriting #WritingCommunity
Some things needed to be said. @PipelineArtists pipelineartists.com/good-advice-yo…
