Hey everybody. I'm a screenwriter who's been living in Los Angeles for a few years now. My background is in the improv and theater scene in Chicago. I used to mostly write comedy, but I've been branching out into drama and horror and have been liking it a lot. For my day job I work as an aquarium technician down in Long Beach installing luxury aquariums in homes and offices. Very excited to meet you all, nothing better than talking to other creative types :)

Great to meet you, Kyle Ferris. Aquarium technician sounds great! Do you ever write any characters who are aquarium technicians?
You're a writer, director, and actor, so I think you'll like the Screenwriting lounge, Filmmaking/Directing lounge, and Acting lounge.

Maurice Vaughan Nice to meet you as well. I haven’t written anything about an aquarium technician, I’m afraid it’s not the most cinematic profession, as much as I enjoy it. I’ll have to check out the other lounges!
Shellie Schmals yes actually. When I was living in chicago my improv troupe came up with the characters Long Ball Larry and Short Dick Darryl, which I recently made into a short film you can find a link to on my profile :)
I think a script about an aquarium technician would be great and entertaining if you can put him or her in a unique story. Maybe an adventure.
The Chicago Improv scene! Don't tell me you had the privilege of practicing with Second City or at the Athenaeum Theatre like most of the big shots. I'm jealous!
