Hi everyone! There aren't any posts here yet, but I thought it would be great to get to know who's in the class since we'll be spending so much time together.
Anyone want to share? Where are you from? How long have you been writing? What's your favorite genre to write? To watch?
I'm Monica and I live just outside of Toronto, Ontario, Canada (aka Hollywood North). I've been writing since I was a kid (I know, it's cliche) and writing seriously/daily for about a year. I've self-published a few children's books in the past and one non-fiction book last year.
This past summer, I tried my hand at screenwriting and have been diving all in when it comes to learning here on Stage 32 in the Writer's Room and through various classes/webinars. My favorite genre to write is probably romantic comedy. My favorite to watch is the same! Although I love films and tv shows from every genre.
Can't wait to learn more about all of you!

Hi Monica, nice to meet you! I'm Maria. I'm originally from Russia and lived in Moscow for quite a long time, but I've moved several times so not sure anymore what I consider home. For the last five years, I've lived in London, UK. I have written short stories, short scripts and recently, a TV screenplay. Stage 32 looks like a great community where writers can work on their craft and also connect with people. I'm here because I want to become a better writer, and hope we will get a lot of great insight and practice from the course!
Thanks for sharing, Maria! You're right, Stage 32 is such a great community :)
