Introduce Yourself : 1st Day in Stage32 by Jamel Herring

Welcome to the community, Jamel Herring. Thank you for your service. Congratulations on becoming a boxing world champion!

Stage 32 has a Screenwriting Lounge where you can meet other screenwriters, find screenwriting resources, ask questions, discuss things about screenwriting, make educational posts, and get feedback on things (loglines, scripts, etc.). Here's the link: www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting

I suggest adding people from all areas of the industry (producers, directors, screenwriters, actors, editors, etc.). You can search for them in the Browse Members section (www.stage32.com/people).

And here are some blogs about networking: www.stage32.com/blog/tags/networking-41

That's a fantastic IY post, Jamel Herring. Congratulations on the Olympics and becoming a world champion. I'm a huge boxing fan and admire anyone who steps in the ring. Also, thank you for your service.

As Maurice Vaughan alluded to, you're in the right place to pursue your creative dreams. Dive right in. This community is as friendly as it is talented.

Welcome! And what the above men said. Cruise the lounges too and you'll always find interesting conversations happening that may spark your interest.

Jamel Herring Greetings Jamel, and welcome to the best community that can help your passions be fulfilled.

Check out a blog article that I wrote with Phil Hardy. It offers a great window onto how you can sell your scripts. Basically, it’s about forming relationships and building your network.

For the rest, just do what Maurice has suggested.

Hey Jamel…Happy 4th and thank you for your service and your commitment to sharing your passion. I am a war veteran as well. Glad we survived and God Bless those who didn’t.

Thanks for your service as well, John Nicholson. Happy 4th of July.

A warmly welcome to this wonderful networking space, Jamel!

Hey Jamil! Welcome aboard! Awesome! And thank you for sharing your passion for film and storytelling. Most of all thank you for your service to our nation! Would love to hear more about your time in the military. Military service resonates with me because we served for 3 decades in the U.S. Army and would love to share our experience. I grew up in the Los Angeles Area and I too been surrounded by countless stories—from comedy to drama—that have deeply influenced me and fueled my desire to share them with the world.

We are professional actor, fitness model, and of course a U.S. Army veteran. My journey has been quite varied, and through it all, storytelling has remained a constant passion. Whether it’s through acting, public speaking, or my primary second career in IT/cybersecurity, I’ve always been drawn to the power of a good story.

I'm currently on the lookout as well for talented screenwriters and creatives who share our passions and can help us bring these stories to life. I believe in the magic of collaboration and the incredible things we can create together. So wanted to see if we can work on something together?

I'm currently working on an exciting new acting role we were chosen in Tombstone, Arizona. The film, titled "Historical Paranormal Lockdown," is set to premiere on TV in Fall 2024. I’ll be stepping into the shoes of an 1880 Saloon Owner, bringing the rich, ghostly history of the Wild West to life. Stay tuned for this captivating film
