Introduce Yourself : Hey, I'm Maurice by Maurice Vaughan

A pleasure to be in contact, Maurice. It's nice to know that one of your favorite genres is horror. I also really enjoy it.

Love the horror genre!!

It's a genre I am afraid to explore! If the genie is let out of the bottle I may not be able to get it back in.

Hey Maurice Vaughan ! Happy IYW! Thanks for all you do!

Thanks, Reuben D. Gregorich. How's your Victorian Horror story going?

What's your favorite Horror sub-genre, Richard M Kjeldgaard?

If you start writing Horror, I'm sure you'd be able to still write other genres, Greg Wong. Like me for example. I mainly write Horror, but I can write Drama, Comedy, etc.

Happy IYW, Leonardo Ramirez. Thanks, I appreciate it. Thanks for all you do as well. How's your week been?

Thanks for that Maurice Vaughan . It's a good day. A good ending to a very eventful week. Obstacles overcome, new relationships to form - all that good stuff. I feel like an entire month has been compressed into one week. But onward we go! My daughter leaves for her final year of college on Sunday so I'll be spending some good quality time with her before she leaves.

Maurice Vaughan! The man, the myth, the legend, thank you for all you do for the Stage 32 community. Love watching your journey :)

Hi Maurice, hope you're doing well!

Maurice ! Thank you for being you and I love the photo! :)

Maurice is also one incredible guy!!! One of the nicest people you will meet!

Never heard of you, Maurice Vaughan... kidding of course! Thanks for all you do for the community!

You're welcome, Leonardo Ramirez. Glad you had a good ending to a very eventful week. I've had weeks like that (it feels like an entire month compressed into one week). I know your daughter must be excited to finish college.

:D You're welcome, Amanda Toney. It's definitely been a journey. Thank you for all you do for the Stage 32 community too. It's A LOT!

I'm doing great, Waheed Rehman. How are you?

Thanks, Sydney S. I made the photo because I wanted people to see me as a Horror writer.

:) Thanks, Maria Restivo Glassner. I really appreciate it. Back at you (One of the nicest people you will meet)!

Yeah, who's this Maurice guy, David Abrookin? Haha You're welcome. Thanks for being such a big help in the community.

The one and only Maurice Vaughan!! We are so lucky to have you in the community, buddy! Have a great IYW!

Hi Maurice, love the pic, it looks so inviting. Cheers on your writings :)

I’m doing well, thank you for asking Maurice Vaughan

Maurice Vaughan is the best!

Hi Maurice Vaughan, about that story: I'm still here, but not everyone made it out in one piece, you know?

Maurice Vaughan She is both excited to be going and sad that she’s leaving home. The cool thing is that she’s already making plans for when she comes home and it involves acting!

I appreciate it, Sam Sokolow. Have a great IYW too!

Thank you, Denise Young. The picture is of me in the woods, recording a video. Like one of those Found Footage Horror movies. :)

You're welcome, Waheed Rehman. How's your projects going?

Thanks, Nick Waters. The best and the G.O.A.T. Haha Just kidding.

That's so sad, Reuben D. Gregorich. :( At least some made it out in one piece. The final girl(s) and final boy(s). I'm not sure if final boy is a term though.

That's exciting, @Leonardo Ramirez. What genres does your daughter wanna act in?

It's summer? I thought the heatwave was just my laptop catching feelings for my writing skills!

Maurice Vaughan Fantasy. She wants to be Haven. ;o)

Creator, connector, and one hell of a communicator...The one and only Maurice Vaughan

Whatup doe, Maurice Vaughan! Dig how you operate, my guy - much success to you.

My summer has been pretty active Maurice Vaughan. Got a short film on the festival circuit. Entering scripts in contests. Still developing my animation project.

We need to get together and work on a horror feature. I was the casting director of "Axeman At Cutter's Creek". We filmed up in Big Bear. Tough shoot but it was worth it. Well, maybe it wasn't worth it. We rented a cabin in Angelis Oaks. It was our filming location and we stayed there. Several of the cast members vanished or died mysteriously. We thought it was part of the screenplay and great makeup effects; however, it turned out to be an escapee from Patton State Hospital located at the bottom of the San Bernardino Mountains. I barely managed to get out of Angelis Oaks with my life. The director, before he was hacked up into 1,000,000 bloody pieces, handed me the hard drive with the footage and made me promise to edit and release the film. He kept saying, "I can't make it. I'm just slowing you down. Here, take the hard drive. Promise me!"

Maurice Vaughan, the man, the myth, the legend here on Stage32!

Haha Ides Buysse. Yeah, it's summer. It's almost over. I'm not mad though. Fall is one of my favorite seasons.

Cool, Leonardo Ramirez. Oh yeah. I think you told me your daughter wants to be Haven. Maybe she'll want to be known as the Action and Sci-Fi/Fantasy actress. Like Milla Jovovich is.

I appreciate it, Richard "RB" Botto. The Stage 32 posts, blogs, and webinars helped me learn to create, connect, and communicate. And I remember you giving the community a challenge during one of your live AMAs. It was a challenge to be more active on here, and I accepted. Thanks for the challenge.

Whatup doe, Christopher Mosley. That's one of my new favorite greetings now. Thanks, and much success to you as well.

Glad you're having an active summer, Martin Reese. Hope your short film does great on the festival circuit and your scripts do great in the contests. I recommend checking out Martin's short THE SNEEZE, everyone.

That's terrible, Matthew Gross. My condolences to the families and friends of the cast members who vanished or died. I hope they find the vanished members. I'm glad you made it out alive.

I'm working on some projects right now, but I'd like to work with you on a Horror feature in the future.

Thanks, @Ty Strange. Appreciate all you're doing for Stage 32.

Maurice Vaughan Yeah I think she'd love that. Although her biggest inspirations are Jennifer Garner and Gal Gadot. Funny thing is that I modeled the character of Beatrice (Haven's mother) after Jennifer Garner as a retired Sidney Bristow. Would be cool if she played Haven's mom. She'd be perfect.

Hey Maurice Vaughan , you are a phenomenal multitasker. I really appreciate your presence here. Always positive. Always supportive. As for summer...I'm grateful to be healthy and happy. Thank you!

That's cool, Leonardo Ramirez. Jennifer Garner and Gal Gadot are action stars, but they also play in other genres. That's an option for your daughter too.

Thanks so much, @Robin Gregory. Multitasking definitely helps. I have a system I set up for writing and using Stage 32. Glad you're healthy and happy. Hope you have a great rest of your summer and fall.

Hey Maurice!

Just wanted to personally thank you for your support and your hard work on Stage 32. Without your contributions and your dedication, Stage 32 wouldn't be as welcoming as it is now. :)

And as far as my own summer goes (no pun intended for Deftones fans), it's been a hard one, rough around the edges, but a productive one regardless and you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way.

Thanks, @Marcel Nault Jr. I really appreciate that. Glad you had a productive summer despite the hardship, and glad you have a positive attitude about it. Sometimes great things come out of hardship.

Bravo Maurice!

Thanks, @Jack Binder.
