About Shelly

Former English Teacher, ready for full-time writing, my hellacious dream job. It's all about the rewrites, which we love to hate, right? Been writing for years, and when life gives you opportunities, you take them as far as you can. Here I am, looking for what everyone else is looking for. Support, feedback, collaborators, and how to get scripts to screens. Semi-newbie, been writing through a couple of versions of Final Draft, familiar with the late nights and hair pulling when you find the one little thing which triggers a rewrite. (I don't throw things. Anymore.) Very glad to be here with artists who understand what it really means to create. Let's suffer and celebrate together! More celebrate. Less suffer.

Unique traits: My witch laugh scared my high school students. I guess it's good.
