Hey everyone, new member here, and new to the industry in general after writing my first screenplay which has recently won a few awards via Film Freeway. No idea what do next, but already started writing my next one as I think I've caught the bug. Also had a piece of my music placed in a short film so feel that now might be the time to reach out to see what the universe has in store :). Looking forward to seeing what Stage32 is all about and love meeting new people. I now live in the South West of England after living for many years in London.

Hey, Russell Knight! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage 32. If you'd like to learn more about myself and the Stage32 Team, we have an intro blog: https://www.stage32.com/blog/Meet-the-Stage-32-Team Nice to meet you and welcome to the community!
I was looking over your profile, but you don't have much there. Tell me about yourself! I would highly recommend adding a profile picture and your bio (where you can expand on what you've done in the past or what you'd like to do in the future) to your profile for other members to better know how to interact with you.

Congrats on your screenplay awards, that's awesome! And you're definitely in the right place to meet new people! Ooo, I LOVE England! Would you be interested in participating in the "Paris, Je T'aime" challenge I posted in the Filmmakers Lounge? It's just a fun way to get to know people through their city:

I think you'd also enjoy meeting like-minded writers in the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting) and musicians/composers in the Composing Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/composing).
Keep in mind that these lounges are like the VIP Filmmaker's Lounges at Film Festivals, so this is where you can meet the people doing the work, get advice on anything you're working on, and/or give back to those who may need advice. We're a very supportive and encouraging community! I think you'd also enjoy my intro blog post on how to engage with the Stage32 Community:

Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect! And, of course, feel free to reach out at any time. Cheers!
Thank you, Kay! A lovely welcome and I will be sure to check out the links you've posted and when I get a sec I'll update my profile.
Looking forward to it.
Cheers :)
