Hi everyone! Glad to be here. I’m thrilled to finally introduce myself to this incredible community.
I’m a screenwriter with over 15 years of experience in the commercial filmmaking industry. I've scripted 500+ projects for global leaders like Porsche, Dell, and Huawei, as well as tiny startups and solo bloggers. My experience goes far beyond pure screenwriting.
I’ve just started a Substack where I share my 'behind-the-scenes' methodology and insights on narrative architecture. If you're curious about how I bridge the gap between business logic and the art of drama, feel free to check out my latest piece here: https://open.substack.com/pub/behindthescript/p/the-screenwriter-as-the-...
Now I'm focusing on my true passion — TV series. I’m currently finalizing the pilot for my urban fantasy series, "Angel from a Bottle", and I’m here to connect with fellow writers, producers, and creative managers.
I'm also venturing into writing books. My first fantasy novel is almost done, and I'm working on a nonfiction book for screenwriters: "Between Business and Art".
Looking forward to meeting you all and sharing some "story magic"!
Let’s connect!

Welcome to the community, Anna. Fifteen years and 500+ projects across that spectrum—from Porsche to solo bloggers—is a remarkable range. As a writer, I'm particularly intrigued by your focus on 'bridging business logic and the art of drama.' That's often where the real craft lives. Best of luck with the 'Angel from a Bottle' pilot and your nonfiction book. Looking forward to your Substack insights.

Hello Mahmood! If that was a question, I'll answer. Screenwriting is my main role but I also have experience as a producer, a director and even an actress in varios projects. And don't worry about your pronunciation of my name - I can't hear it :) Mahmood Inkstechshub
Or you maybe wanted to ask what am I doing as a screenwriter? If so, than I do all the creative part: developing the concept, writing detailed, production-ready shooting script, leading the briefing process with clients and presenting them my vision. And I also control the post-production process if it's necessary. Mahmood Inkstechshub
