Hi Everyone,
My name is Kat, and I just started screenwriting back in 2016. I've been writing since I was little which started off as short stories, then transitioned into poetry, and now screenwriting. I could never find where my artwork was appreciated until I started screenwriting. I specialize in psychological thrillers with a dash of horror. I've always wanted to do filmmaking, but couldn't quite figure out how to gain the knowledge, and my school didn't offer the program to get me started
When I joined the International Screenwriters' Association in 2016, I took a class called the CraftCourse in Screenwriting taught by Max Timm. Within two months I developed my first draft of my first ever screenplay, entitled Pale. From there, I was hooked. I wanted to keep learning and honing this skill which led me to join his consulting service called The Story Farm. Now, as of today, I have two features and one short under my belt and currently working on my third feature. I am also proud to say that I have decided to embark on the journey to producing my first short film. I am so excited to get to experience this. If anyone has any suggestions or tips, I'd love to hear them! Also, I'll be posting updates as I go through the process on my blog at www.kat-a-cooper.com.
I'm looking forward to making new connections!

Hi George. Great to connect with you. I'm embarking on producing my first ever short film. I'll be posting my progress on my blog at www.kat-a-cooper.com. You can find other work that I do there as well. I've made lookbooks for three of my screenplays including this one that I'm about to produce and dabbled in photography and graphic design projects.
Hello Kat, I am happy to meet you. Maybe we can share some creative ideas.
Hi Paula. I would love that!
Hi Kat, I am VERY new to screenwriting. Don't know the first thing about it, flying by the seat of my pants, I just was investigating some screenwriting books that are available on Amazon. I have written several synopses and some character descriptions and am just beginning to write the screenplay for a movie called Hope Lane. It is a story about love and music and the triumph of the human spirit. That is all I am going to say about it for now. The rest is a surprise! (Tee-hee!):) That sounds very neat that you have written some thriller/horror films. Maybe you can tell me about them sometime. God Bless, Paula Jeanine:)
Welcome, Kat! This is the place to be.
Thanks, Andrew. It's great to meet you!
Thanks, Dan! He's an excellent coach and industry pro. I would recommend those who are trying to improve their writing or are first-time writers to check out his new consulting service, the Story Farm. http://thecraftcourse.thinkific.com/courses/thestoryfarm
