Hello and welcome. My name is John August. My name is Craig Mason.

And this is episode 585 of Script Notes. A podcast about screenwriting and things that

are interesting to screenwriters. Today on the show, what are the unique characteristics

that allow you to distinguish one writer's writing from another's? We'll talk about

writer fingerprints, voice, and situations where you may need to mimic someone else's

style. Plus, we have a lot of listener follow-up. Good. And in our bonus segment for premium

members, well, we often answer writer questions about producers. But here we have one from

a producer asking about how to best handle a writer who can't seem to finish or deliver

on a script. So if you want to know what advice Craig, Megana, and I have for this producer,

you can find out as a premium member in about one hour when we get to that segment.

Oh, that'll be, that's worth the five bucks right there. Right there. Right there.

You know, it's worth more than five dollars. What segment, man? A spot on script notes.

You are a writer because we are the number one podcast for getting Oscar nominees to

happen. That's what I've decided. I think you might be right about this.

Our track record this year pretty darn good. Sarah Polly and Oscar nominee. Yep. Ryan Johnson,

Oscar nominee. Yep. Daniels, Oscar nominees. You can count them as one or two people.

I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I'm one by person duo, ology. Absolutely.

And although she wasn't on the podcast this year, she was a previous guest, Pamela Ribbon.

She was one cool thing. So I think that counts for her animation nomination. Absolutely.

For her by your objects. And I don't know if you've, it's not funny. Your

objects triggered something. The title or the film itself? The title because I was so glad

I got to say that. And it's preserved eternally. Yeah. So have you watched poker face yet?
