    'Scriptnotes NOTES' Ep 1 - 'She’s Not "Manic" Just Because She Makes You Insecure"

    Welcome to Scriptnotes NOTES: the first in a series of Pomonok NOTES podcasts. SNN will be 52 episodes over the next year where host Teresa Jusino will delve into the craft and business of screenwriting through the lens of a queer, neurodivergent, Jewish Latina grappling with what she's learned from two of her industry role models -- John August and Craig Mazin of the Scriptnotes podcast. Episode 1 is called She’s Not ‘Manic’ Just Because She Makes You Insecure, because Teresa is so over people applying film trope labels to actual, real-life people. She gets into Scriptnotes #697 and John and Craig’s conversation about a woman who wrote into an advice column to bemoan her husband’s relationship with old friend from high school, whom she’s labeled a “manic pixie dream girl.” How would this be a movie? Teresa has a pitch.SHOWNOTES:  Scriptnotes Episode #697: We Wrote a Book!Girlboss‘ Sophia Is Not a ‘Manic Pixie’ Anything, Because You Can’t Be One of Those TO YOURSELF by Teresa Jusino (April 27, 2017 at The Mary Sue)Help!
