Hello all. I'm Caroline. I'm an aspiring screenwriter with the goal of finishing five screenplays in one year (August to August). I've already completed two, and an older screenplay that performed well in the 2014 BlueCat Screenplay Competition has seen a couple re-writes in the last few months. I'm developing a coming of age post-apocalyptic sci-fi idea at this time, but I am not a sci-fi aficionado. This is my first sci-fi attempt, and needless to say, I'm struggling through it! If you'd like to know more, or if you are interested in swapping screenplays for feedback, send me a message. The log lines for my completed screenplays are on my profile. If any of them pique your interest, let me know!

Hey Caroline, I have written several SciFi scripts and have some suggestions: Make them laugh, deconstruct the present & don't take things too seriously.

Thanks Robert. My problem is that the idea I have is very serious. The ending, which I already have worked out, is very much a shade of tragic. I'll send you the log line in a private message.
