A video essay series about film, writing, and story theory. WHEN IS SEASON 6? I have outlined Season 6, but not yet had time to begin writing or editing. Screenwriting is my profession and I make these videos for fun when I find time. If you take a second to subscribe, YouTube will notify you when I make new videos. ABOUT JONATHAN W. STOKES I've sold screenplays to all the major Hollywood studios and have been hired to write scripts for talented folks like Ridley Scott, Will Smith, Jeremy Renner, Hugh Jackman, Mel Gibson, Zoe Saldana, and Benedict Cumberbatch. Five of my spec screenplays have been voted onto the annual Hollywood Blacklist. I'm also proud to be a mentor for the Blacklist Writers Lab. I am the author of the Addison Cooke series and the Thrifty Guide series, both published by Penguin Random House. I have cat-like reflexes, incredible taste in dishware, and 96% accuracy with high-fives.
