After many years falling short on bidding for work and several million rounds of interviews over the past 2 months, I got hired today to ghostwrite a book for a retiring exec from Disney. NDA signed so no further details, but I've got my foot in the door, and am that much closer to my master plan of kidnapping Dave Filoni, stealing his hat, and taking over the creative direction of of Star Wars.

WARNING: I have a deep-seated desire for others to love the Star Wars franchise as much as I do, in exactly the way I do, and get snippy and sensitive and passive-aggressive when they don't.

Make sure to include an anecdote about the Disney Exec falling in some mud and ruining the very pants they were about to return.

He vanished after some of his story didn't add up.

You need to include a coded message where the first letter of every word in a series spells, "**** Kathleen Kennedy."

The running TexAgs Kathleen Kennedy Kounter:

Wrote, directed, produced, and made every single creative decision: The Last Jedi, The Rise of Skywalker, Mando Season 3, The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi

Might have had something to do with: Solo, Ahsoka

Had absolutely nothing to do with: The Force Awakens, Rogue One, Mando Seasons 1 & 2, The Bad Batch, Tales of the Jedi, Andor.

Congrats! Thats so awesome.

Ghostwriting for a Disney exec technically = ghostrunning Star Wars, as far as I'm concerned.

Shocker. Trust fun Terry didnt realize his fake story about "grinding" and "hustling" on his "6" businesses would be obviously unbelievable to anyone with a brain and not on the direct payroll of his dad. The guy sounds like a normal dude from Highland Park.

Ask him what he thinks of Kathleen Kennedy.

Well the first warning sign was that he claimed to own 6 companies and be worth like $28 million but couldn't get me $500 upfront via Paypal for the next section of the book.

I have no idea what ghostwriting entails or what porkchop looks like. But I have this image of Chris Farley doing the interviews now. Can't help it.

Seriously, congrats! Very cool.

If you find a way to work at least a significant portion of the Natalie Portman at the Oscars after-party story into your book, I'll Venmo you $100.

Fortunately I learned my lesson about sharing anything from my last big Entertainment book, so that's not going to happen. Although, to be fair, That wasn't anyone 's fault but mine (and the doxxers, God Bless them!). You guys made that project a lot of fun while it lasted.
