There may finally be a light at the end of the tunnel in the stalemate between the WGA and AMPTP as a tentative agreement is reached to bring the strikes to an end and see a return to work. Here's what the Writers Guild sent to their members last night. DEAR MEMBERS, We have reached a tentative agreement on a new 2023 MBA, which is to say an agreement in principle on all deal points, subject to drafting final contract language. What we have won in this contract – most particularly, everything we have gained since May 2nd – is due to the willingness of this membership to exercise its power, to demonstrate its solidarity, to walk side-by-side, to endure the pain and uncertainty of the past 146 days. It is the leverage generated by your strike, in concert with the extraordinary support of our union siblings, that finally brought the companies back to the table to make a deal. We can say, with great pride, that this deal is exceptional – with meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership. What remains now is for our staff to make sure everything we have agreed to is codified in final contract language. And though we are eager to share the details of what has been achieved with you, we cannot do that until the last “i” is dotted. To do so would complicate our ability to finish the job. So, as you have been patient with us before, we ask you to be patient again – one last time. Once the Memorandum of Agreement with the AMPTP is complete, the Negotiating Committee will vote on whether to recommend the agreement and send it on to the WGAW Board and WGAE Council for approval. The Board and Council will then vote on whether to authorize a contract ratification vote by the membership. If that authorization is approved, the Board and Council would also vote on whether to lift the restraining order and end the strike at a certain date and time (to be determined) pending ratification. This would allow writers to return to work during the ratification vote, but would not affect the membership’s right to make a final determination on contract approval. Immediately after those leadership votes, which are tentatively scheduled for Tuesday if the language is settled, we will provide a comprehensive summary of the deal points and the Memorandum of Agreement. We will also convene meetings where members will have the opportunity to learn more about and assess the deal before voting on ratification. To be clear, no one is to return to work until specifically authorized to by the Guild. We are still on strike until then. But we are, as of today, suspending WGA picketing. Instead, if you are able, we encourage you to join the SAG-AFTRA picket lines this week. Finally, we appreciated your patience as you waited for news from us — and had to fend off rumors — during the last few days of the negotiation. Please wait for further information from the Guild. We will have more to share with you in the coming days, as we finalize the contract language and go through our unions’ processes. As always, thank you for your support. You will hear from us again very soon. This doesn't mean the stike is over and everyone goes home happy quite yet, but it certainly seems to be a positive step towards film and TV production slowly ramping up production again.

Southern Dragon Publishing wants to know if you participate with writers groups on the National and/or local level. There are several National Organizations such as Sisters in Crime, Mystery Writers of America, etc and they have local chapters. Tell me if you participate in one or more, which ones, have they helped your writer career, and do they promote you and your books?

drstanakatic: At times to protest is to Show Up & Stay Standing... owning your space as an act of defiance against forces that would snuff you out. This one however needed to hit the streets. It has been a disagreement that has been in discussion for over a decade. And it has affected nearly all tradespeople/craftspeople behind the creation of films and tv. (Many other strikes across the film/tv world have narrowly been averted these past few years in order to keep people employed & with the promise of addressing serious concerns in the “near future” and “in good faith”.) “Technological advances” have been used as an excuse for rolling back hard won pay standards & work conditions. It’s an old tactic used by corporations to maximize profit in the face of “the uncertainty of the profitability of new technology”. This one might get tougher before things finally settle. Corporations vs. Craftspeople. If you see colleagues out there, HONK. It sends a message of support, and encourages a swifter resolution. PS. Thanks to the #WritersGuild for these borrowed placards.

I've never seen this trend before, but it looks cool! Many thanks to the beloved Dante Basco for giving us insight into what kind of residual payments actors were receiving before the strikes began.

I was almost willing to buy that kicking the two audience members out over the strike pins was a miscommunication. But she had time to fix it, and didn’t.

141 days and counting of the Writers strike, and talks resume to attempt to bring negotiations to an equitable conclusion for all sides. The big dogs from Netflix, Disney, Universal and Warner Brothers were at the AMPTP’s Sherman Oaks offices yesterday to discuss the situation, keeping their counsel on the results of those talks until the time is right. More than 140 days into the WGA strike, the latest resumption of talks today between the scribes and studios and steamers are leaving nothing to chance. Netflix’s Ted Sarandos, Disney’s Bob Iger, Universal’s Donna Langley and Warner Bros Discovery’s David Zaslav are joining negotiating teams for both sides sitting down at the AMPTP’s Sherman Oaks offices right now. It is unclear how personally involved, if at all, the CEO Gang of Four will be in further talks anticipated later this week. With film and TV productions only recently finding their feet after the disruption of the global pandemic, the coming months and years will see a slowdown of releases and shifting of schedules. For lovers of their favourite franchises, the sooner this and the 69 day long actors strike are resolved, the better. [amazon box="0744087341"]

�� Unexpected twist in the #HollywoodOnStrike saga! from Erik Conn on Vimeo.

�� Unexpected twist in the #HollywoodOnStrike saga! A creative AI experiment by @AI_Erik, #aiking, uses AI to emulate the tweets of #SAGAFTRA member Michael B. Jordan. The goal? To showcase the sophisticated capabilities of modern AI.

� While the real @michaelb4jordan stands with his #WritersGuild colleagues amidst strike concerns, the AI version @AI_MBJordan is generating tweets that mirror Jordan's style and sentiments. The comparison is striking, bringing AI's mimicking abilities to the forefront.

� The AI's responses are not endorsed by the actor, but are the result of machine learning algorithms analyzing his public posts and interests. The real and AI-generated tweets are creating an uncanny parallel narrative of the ongoing Hollywood saga.

� Will the real Michael B Jordan comment on this intriguing experiment? As the contract expiration draws closer, how will both versions react? Follow @michaelb4jordan and @AI_MBJordan to witness this unprecedented #AIvsHuman saga unfold. Stay tuned! �� #aierik #DigitalTwin
