Hello everyone! I'm brand new here! I've been a ghostwriter for the last two years, working on fiction/nonfiction books, scripts, and articles. But I've been writing my own stuff for the last 10 years. I finally want to get my stuff out there, meet some amazing people in this industry, and work on up-and-coming projects. And, hopefully, within the next year, sell something I've written - or, better yet, see it translated to the screen. It's nice to meet everyone!

Maurice, I currently have a feature-length script written that I would like to sell or see get made. And I'm working on another feature-length script at the moment. I'm also going to be posting some smaller scripts in the near future.

I recently finished a Horror/Comedy feature script ("Escape the House"), Cameron. I'm currently pitching it. I'm rewriting a Crime/Comedy feature script.

Thank you so much, Karen! I will absolutely work towards putting a pitch together! I'm trying to get one of my scripts sold while simultaneously finishing up another. I'm so happy to be a part of this community! I'll email Jason as well, as I'm certain that I can gain something from the communication!

My partner and I do some ghost writing too, and I actually think it is pretty good preparation for writing scripts. Welcome!
Thank you, Woodrow!

Christiane: That's awesome! I think it's been really helpful as well. Even the nonfiction ghostwriting has helped in terms of conducting research and organizing ideas. I'm a strong believer that a story should not only develop characters but also ideas - just like a nonfiction book on philosophy. So the ghostwriting has helped tremendously in this area!
Cameron Reilly Plus, it forces you to be very aware of writing in someone else's voice, i.e. dialogue.
