Your Stage : Raising Awareness by Matthew Olson

Matthew Olson

Raising Awareness

I wrote a screenplay raising awareness about paranoid schizophrenia and all the stigma around it. I fell in love with film from an early age. I have the illness as well and coming to a point in my life that I’m stable and finally have the motivation to pursue this.

Hi, Matthew Olson. I’m a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. I wanted to let you know I moved your post from the Screenwriting Lounge to the Your Stage Lounge because it’s promotion. Promotion can go in the Your Stage Lounge and on Your Wall.

You can post promotion in one of the main Lounges (Screenwriting Lounge, Producing Lounge, Filmmaking/Directing Lounge, etc.) if your post starts a conversation that’s helpful and educational to the community, like giving screenwriting advice or asking a screenwriting question.

You can also put promotion in one of the main Lounges if you're asking for feedback.

Let me know if you have any questions. Glad you're coming to a point in your life that you're stable and you have the motivation to pursue a writing career!

Matthew Olson Congrats, a first script done is a great feeling. While I do not suffer from health issues, my first script - Howard - has elements concerning mental health treatment and medical ethics.

All the best to revisions and development.
