Amy Schumer's very good year just got even better.
The actress/writer/producer already has an Emmy and Peabody on her shelf, and she's up for a Golden Globe. Now, she's also vying for a Writers Guild of America award.
The guild announced the 2016 nominees for theatrical and documentary screenplays, and Schumer notched a nod for writing the summer hit comedy "Trainwreck," which she also starred in.
Also receiving original screenplay nominations were the blockbuster hip-hop drama "Straight Outta Compton" and this award season's frontrunner, "Spotlight."
