I actually joined quite a while ago, but I don't remember if I ever did one of these.
My name's Ari Marmell. I'm a novelist (coming up on 20 published) and game writer (tabletop and video games), and I've been writing scripts for a couple of years now. I actually managed to option the very first of them, and I'm currently shopping and/or looking for representation for the others. Pretty much everything I do is speculative genre fiction (that is, sci-fi/fantasy/horror).
Happy to be here!

Hey, Ari Marmell! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage 32. Nice to meet you! Wow, congratulations on your successful writing career thus far! That's incredible! Definitely reach out to our Director of Script Services, Jason Mirch, who is excellent at matching projects with potential executives (or managers, in your case): J.Mirch@stage32.com
If you still need practice or feedback for that pitch, then I would highly suggest signing up for the Writer's Room: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/vip We host a weekly Pitch Practice session for peer feedback moderated by our Script Services Coordinator, Nick Assunto. As a WR member, you also get a discount on services AND because there is an extra Wednesday Webinar this month, you would also get a code for a free webinar. Seriously, can't recommend it enough! If you're interested, DM me and I can send you a link for your first month free.
In the meantime, I would LOVE for you to start a conversation in the Transmedia Lounge! Maybe you could talk about what you do to adapt your writing skills for writing games? https://www.stage32.com/lounge/transmedia
