It mentions that you are also involved in Screenwriting and Marketing/PR. What does that mean? Does that mean you also work with Marketing and Public Relations? Is that like business?

Maria Restivo Glassner

Jed Power

Congrats, Robert and I'd like to 2nd what Souvik said.

Robert Cole

Thank you...but this is just a means to an end...but if there's a WGA strike...it may throw a monkey wrench in my plans to become a rich and famous script writer...lol

Kevin Hager

If it's okay, could I consult with you about my ideas for film, TV, and business ideas? I know they are good ideas.

Robert Cole

It's probably best to get a manager...or a writing partner...sharing ideas is probably not a good idea...you always want to make sure no one uses it...I don't do any consulting anyway...but I wish you the best of luck!

Kevin Hager

Would you recommend someone who does? My ideas are also for Disney.

Robert Cole

Sorry...I don't know anyone to recommend...but good luck

Kevin Hager

Well Thanks anyway. But you said you are now represented by an agent. Would you recommend this agent? Could this agent represent me?

I ask you to be patient and understanding with me, as I have Asperger Syndrome and Multiple Sclerosis.

Thank you for your time.

Robert Cole

You would have to contact agencies and they determine if they want to represent you. I contacted several before I was finally picked up. Good luck!

Niki H

Congratulations Robert! Happy to see the hard work paying off.

Kevin Hager

I have, but heard nothing from them.

Maurice Vaughan

You can search for a writing partner in the Browse Members Section, Kevin Hager (www.stage32.com/people?name=&location=&roles=Screenwriter). I suggest adding a profile picture. I think it'll help you find a writing partner.

As for a manager or agent, I suggest building a portfolio of strong scripts that'll help you land a manager or agent. You can also enter Stage 32's contests (www.stage32.com/scriptservices/contests). Stage 32 sends the winners' loglines to over 500 industry executives, including literary managers, agents, and producers.

GiGi Raines

Congratulations! That's amazing!

John Mark Sibley Jr

Congratulations, that must have been one exciting email to receive!

Donnalyn Vojta

Yesssssss!!! Congratulations, Robert. You should be EXTREMELY proud of yourself.
