A milestone I wanted to share. My pilot Fallen Angel just came back from the Black List at an 8, and I finally cut a teaser for it. It is a grounded AI thriller, and the tech is my day job. I was Chief Architect of Data and AI at Microsoft and I advise the DoD on AI and autonomous systems, so I tried to write the arms race the way it actually feels from the inside. Here is the teaser if you would like a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyhgFhKor5Y Grateful for this community, and always happy to compare notes with anyone cutting their own.
Bobby G, I’m in for a swap. Fresh eyes is exactly how we level up.
I write grounded thrillers with 80% real locations, time stretched, no music. My rule: every scene must cost the character something. No cost = no tension.
DM me and let’s exchange first 10 pages. I give brutal but respectful notes. You too ?
