Hello to you all! My name is Bertilda. I've recently joined the Stage 32 platform and am very excited to jump head first into making connections, networking, and pitching my current script, Commitment Issues. I've been writing since I was 12 years old. Crafting stories and screenplays started as a unique and helpful way to channel my creative energy and express myself in a healthy meaningful way. At that time, I had no clue that writing would become my passion. Many moons later, I am finally setting out on a journey to tell my stories to the world. As a writer, I strive to tell engaging, complex stories about life and love. I'm so glad to have come across a platform that offers so many services and opportunities to creatives and I am hopeful that Stage 32 will help me to eventually attain my dreams as a screenwriter.
Welcome, Bertilda!

Heyd, Bertilda Duhon Lacy! Great to meet you and welcome to the community! Ooo, I'm digging your RomCom script! Have you developed a pitch deck for it? Definitely use Stage 32's free Pitching Guidebook to structure your pitch, whether a 2-page written pitch document, a 5-minute verbal pitch, and/or a 15-30 page pitch deck: https://www.stage32.com/sites/stage32.com/themes/two/pdfs/happy-writers/Stage_32_Pitching_Guidebook.pdf
If you’ve already discovered the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting), 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! Although I'd love for you to start a post sharing your own insights into singing and acting. There is even a recent post about vocal warm-ups as offered by SAG-AFTRA: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/acting/SAG-AFTRA-Techniques-for-Any-Vocal...
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 blog post on how to get the most out of the Stage32 Community:
