Living in LA. Writing for the screen with my wife @sharlaoliver.bsky.social (you may have seen our work on Marvel's #AgentsofSHIELD). Raising a nerdy daughter. He/Him
Sat down to play Pandemic for family game night (kiddo's idea) and my phone rang with a call from the #CDC. I didn't answer, in part because it was marked as likely Spam. Odd timing to say the least. (Also looked it up, probably a real survey from the CDC -- not spam)

The New York Times Spelling Bee is declaring war on Massachusetts.
Not done yet. #SAGAFTRAStrong walked with us. #WGAStrong walks with them.
Getting a #WGAStrong deal on the 10th Anniversary of the #AgentsofSHIELD pilot airing means we break out the wrap gift glasses to celebrate.
