Could you survive in a world where everyone is constantly under the influence? I want your takes — reply, comment, debate. The...

Is it common for actors, writers, and directors and producers to come out of retirement to complete a project, for any kind of reason?
This piece came from a simple thought — that life makes no sense, no matter where you are in the world.
The first part is in European languages.
The second part in Asian languages.
And the third — a deliberate mix of both, showing how confusion, humor, and wonder belong to all of us.

New Song: Another One Due
Sometimes a song just arrives fully formed. The phrase “another one due” popped into my mind, and before I knew it, I had a full-blown satirical gospel tune about a preacher who’s a little too focused on his next mortgage payment and private jet!
“Another One Due” is a tongu...

Hi Brent,
That's fantastic—congratulations on getting "Another One Due" out there! A satirical gospel tune about mixing faith and high finances sounds absolutely brilliant. I definitely enjoy satire in...

I've written things that made me laugh out loud while writing them, Wyman Brent, like something a character says.
Salisu Abdullahi, thank you so very much. More than one of my songs uses satire. However, I never really think about what I am writing until the song is done. I do not even know the song`s title until...

Maurice Vaughan, exactly. I have had the same with some of my songs and with some of my scripts.
Hi Brent,
That's fascinating! The fact that you don't even know the song's title until the tune is finished really speaks to the pure, uninhibited creative process you have—letting the material lead th...

Inspiration That Never Fades: George Jones and the Songs He Stirred in Me
I was lucky enough to see George Jones perform three times in my life. Each time felt like standing in the presence of living history — that unmistakable voice, that ache in every syllable, and the way he could take a simple li...

One of my Christmas wishes is to share my ideas with Disney, they make a lot of good Christmas movies, shows and specials.
Does anyone know any agents or managers who worked with Disney or have connections to Disney? I would appreciate it, and it would make my Christmas dreams come true.
You don’t really know how to handle this bodiless, intangible crap — ‘cause it’s just a word with no monetization behind it.
So what if you’ve got “influence”? You don’t make a dime from it. You’re just hoping for a pity donation from some kid who borrowed his mom’s credit card for a sec.
So here’s...

Nobody really knows what this painting means. I interpret it as a commentary on death - remain humble even if you're intelligent. Supposedly the skull becomes clearly visibly when you view the painting from a certain angle.
We'll soon see the Michael Jackson biopic in theaters. Which biopics would you like to see next?
Hello everyone, and have a great weekend.

A little update:
This week the director sent me the photos he wants for the poster of his short film.
I'll start working on them and let you know the final result. I'm very excited.
And how are the graphic designs for your films going? :D
Ciao!
Congratulations, Ugo Cavallo! I'm not working on designs right now, but I'm making progress on a feature script I'm rewriting for Stage 32’s November Write Club. My main goal for NWC is finish rewriti...

I keep thinking about how the world once looked west for stories, then turned east and found Korea.
When it finally turns south, it will find Africa — raw, layered, and unfiltered. The next global rhythm isn’t just in the music; it’s in our stories.

That could be a hit movie/show, William Crudup. You said sobriety is illegal, so I'd go to prison, and I'm not going to prison. I'd go on the run.
Actually, now that I think about it, William Crudup, I could survive in that world, but I wouldn't be able to live a normal life.

Everyone would need long-term psychological treatment for their addiction.
The real problem is that if the madness becomes global, even doctors and psychologists would be affected and in need of treatment themselves.
Our last hope would be robots — but only if they were already prepared and programmed to handle such a crisis.
Thank you for this question; I really enjoy thinking about large-scale Earth crises like this.
