When my amazing screenwriting coach/teacher told the class to check out Stage 32, I knew I had to take it seriously. I don't like to submit my screenplays around until they have gotten a bit of notice. This one just (4 days ago or so) was named an Official Selection of the Beverly Hills Film Festival but I was still nervous about it after getting turned down on my first 3 written pitches through Stage 32. An author friend suggested a small (but important) tweak to my pitch, which I did and submitted again yesterday. Today I have a screenplay request from a company doing a new movie with Robert De Niro! Thank You Stage 32!

Thank you all for the great support and comments. I have been driving cross country from CA to MI (where I run www.campmackinaw.com with my brothers in the summer months) so I am a bit behind acknowledging & thanking everyone. I'm not sure if there is a way to answer questions in comments directly - so if you don't mind i will answer a couple of questions here. Yes I will be attending the Beverly Hills Film Festival. I have just left CA for 7 months but I am returning the weekend of the Beverly Hills Film Festival for the ASCAP Expo (I am also a composer too - currently for Access Hollywood). Virginia Brucker - yes it was a written pitch and I posted it as is on a site I am starting for the screenplay. http://theroadtoremembering.com/

@Frank, my partner, Lesley and I are arriving on Thursday, April 30. We are staying at the Avalon, the host hotel. I will PM you my cell phone. Feel free to reach out. We intend to hold court in the Avalon's lounge with evening meetings with talent I have attached to projects, other writers and whomever wanders in.

Kate Danaher - Congrats to you! :-) I look forward to meeting you. I am going to be back in CA for the ASCAP Expo, so that mean I will only be at the dinner on Sunday for the BHFF. I will be easy to spot, I will be the only one with a little brown dog in a tuxedo. I was selected by the BHFF for a screenplay a few years ago (http://theresnoplacelikeahomethemovie.com/ ) and if they run it the same way, there are lots of opportunities for chatting.

Congrats to you, Frank. Too bad I will miss you on Sunday, leaving in the morning to go back East, as my husband has work to attend to on Monday. Too bad. I will check out your website!
