Hello, I am Arthur from Vancouver Canada.
An accountant by trade who needs a creative outlet. So, I started writing scripts. Completed my feature-length horror, and one year's worth of weekly one-page challenges. That is about 50 one-pager screenplays done this year.
Looking to enlarge my circle of screenwriters to critique each other's work for feedback.
I am well beyond the basics now and bit by bit getting into more complex aspects of writing.
There is so much to learn both on the business side and screenwriting side.
My end goal is to create stories that can stand the test of time.
Hopefully, I will see those stories on the big screen and to keep on growing as a writer.

Hey Thorn, there is a great way to hear your script out loud with local actors, check the Cold reading series in Vancouver. Some pals of mine are part of it. It’s also a good way to meet other people with the passion of writing in Vancouver

Congratulations on finishing your feature script and one-page scripts, Thorn Dagron! I've been thinking about writing one-page scripts.
There's a weekly Coverage Report in Stage 32's Writers' Room where writers and other creatives give feedback on a member's script each week. You can get your first month of the Writers' Room free here: www.stage32.com/writers-room/plans-vip

Doing one-pagers is challenging and a good way to practice and experiment with techniques on a small scale.

Hi Geoff Hall, Life in Vancouver is really busy at the moment. I hardly enough time to read and write, but I managed to squeeze that in somehow. Been reading screenwriting books as well. Learning lots
