Introduce Yourself : An American in Germany... by Erik Meyers

Hey, Erik Meyers! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage 32. Nice to meet you! Wow, how's Germany? Congrats on your books! Where are you at with your screenplay? If you need feedback, you could reach out on the Screenwriting Lounge to ask for a script exchange for peer notes: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting

When you're ready for professional notes, you can start with script coverage: https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/coverage/buy?id=23&affid=mjm

After the Screenwriting Lounge, definitely reach out on the Acting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/acting) for insight into characters, dialogue, and even when you want to generate interest in a virtual table read!

Keep in mind that these lounges are like the VIP Filmmaker's Lounges at Film Festivals, so this is where you can meet the people doing the work, get advice on anything you're working on, and/or give back to those who may need advice. We're a very supportive and encouraging community! I think you'd also enjoy my intro blog post on how to engage with the Stage32 Community:

Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect!

All the best, Erik.
