Introduce Yourself : Disabled writer by Matthew Olson

Matthew Olson

Disabled writer

Hi everyone. I’m a mentally disabled person with schizophrenia. I wrote a comedy about my illness and the stereotypes of the illness which is always so serious all the time.

The title of my film is: The Diagnosed Adventures of Marty and Danny.

It’s a story about recovery from the illness and what it’s really like in the mental health community.

Thank you

Matthew

Welcome to the community, Matthew Olson. I’m a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. I wanted to let you know I moved your post from the Screenwriting Lounge to the Introduce Yourself Lounge since you're introducing yourself.

You can post about your script in one of the main Lounges (Screenwriting Lounge, Filmmaking/Directing Lounge, Producing Lounge, etc.) if your post starts a conversation that’s helpful or educational to the community. Example: If you post about your script in the Screenwriting Lounge, within that post you could start a discussion by asking for advice about where to pitch a script.

You can also post your promotion in one of the main Lounges if you're asking for feedback.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Also, you could post your logline, synopsis, and script on your profile. Producers search profiles on here for projects. Click the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and select “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu. Scroll down to “Loglines” and click “Add/edit loglines” to the right of “Loglines.” You can also add the logline, synopsis, and script to your profile here (near the top where it says “Add a Logline”): www.stage32.com/loglines
