Weekly Accountability Post

For Monday, June 22, 2026

Time just keeps rolling. Why won’t it stop!?

Here I list what I managed to get done in the last week, and you do the same. This keeps us accountable. It’s a great way to achieve super-productivity. Jump on the bandwagon and be a part of the magic.

Novel-Writing

I decided to throw out yet more chapters of Nothing Civil About It because I finally cracked the tone I’ve been searching for. All it took was killing one character, and everything fell into place. Below you’ll see the output from the last seven days: one of the old, discarded chapters, plus two new chapters that I think are working.

They’re writing themselves now, and I hope to dramatically scale up the writing from here on in—at least a chapter a day.

Screenwriting

I wrote about four more pages on my Patrick Stoodle’s Completely Awesome Army of Killer Robots screenplay. They’re rough as I work out the story. And they’re below.

My goal is to do 10 pages a day on this script and 10 more pages a day on another script (a pen-name script) until the end of June. I booked a former Hollywood story analyst to read both scripts and give me coverage before I send them to my agent.

Can I keep up with all these writing goals? We shall see.

App-Making

Implemented some fixes, upgrades, and improvements to the Comedy Mastermind app after delivering it to you last week, based on feedback I got (thank you!) and then submitted it to the Apple app stores.

Been using the app, and I love it. It’s like my brain has been made into a computer that I can have conversations with. This is literally what I’ve always wanted my brain to do, but it was always too slow!

The app is at comedymastermind.com if you haven’t tried it yet. Go nuts!

Also started working in earnest on another app—a planner. All the planning/scheduling apps I’ve tried are overwhelming and ultimately worthless, so I’m making one that works for me. I’ll let you know how this project goes.

Misc

Had a few meetings, including the webinar I did on Wednesday with Marc Warzecha of the Sketch School on satire writing. My slides for that are below.

We’re offering a 4-part masterclass on the subject. The first session is Wednesday, June 24. Check it out.

That’s all for me—what did you get done?
