Hello everyone! I'm a long time member who took a hiatus for a few years to deal with some health issues, both my own and my family. I spent much of that time writing screenplays and helped in filming a couple of short films and one feature. As you can see from my bio, I've been in various roles in this industry for well over a decade.
I've missed this place and all the wonderful people. It's cool to see all the changes here and how busy the various lounges have become. It's grown so much! Also cool to come back to so many network requests and nice comments.
Planning on being around much more often and also joined the Writers' Room which, honestly, is beyond my expectations. I've already watched the Steve Desmond workshop. Loved Knock at the Cabin and hearing his stories on how it all came about.
For a long time, Stage 32 played such a huge role in my life. It's so wonderful to be back. Can't wait to meet you all.

Hi Shellie Schmals. I attended many of RB's Q&A's when I was very active here. They were so full of information and he's always upbeat and motivating. I've been following his many adventures on Instagram. He seems as busy as ever! I won't miss this one on Friday!

Thank you Maurice. I'm only digging into all the videos in the Writers' Room. I can't believe how much material is in there!

You're welcome, James Drago. I recommend the live events too. The Coverage Reports, Pitch Practices, Writers' Cafes, Executive Hours, etc.
