I am an older guy, that had a dream. I took that dream into two novels of infamy (read based on truth) about early Southern California - mainly Los Angeles. I made the first novel into a feature script - namely - HORACE BELL, and placed it on IMDB. Horace Bell wrote the very first book that was published in Los Angeles in 1881 - I believe. From my background I found him fascinating as we shared similar LAW occupations.
We received some 17 awards to date which was quite fun - actually. And we put a few nice actors on it - and like many others; we now JUST need the financing. Of course there is that sequel novel.
Thank you for just taking the time to read this.

Hi Steven, that’s awesome! Do you have your deck ready to go?
Hey Steve, this is exciting! Sounds like you're on the next step of your journey
Welcome Steven! Nice to meet you. Glad you're here.
I registered a script several years ago. I've since done some significant revisions and I'm wondering if the registration number still sticks. Thanks for any insight.
I go with WGA because of cost and ease of use, I figure it is already copyrighted from moment of creation and I only need WGA proof of approximate date of creation. Some don't agree with this and say copyright office is only protection!

I had a very similar situation. I opted to reregister my script, simply because my major edits came with new scenes and ideas, and were not part of the original script. For the best protection, I would re-register with both the WGA and US Copyright office.
Thank YOU

So I finally decided to get my comedy "out there" and started with Stage 32. Best decision ever! It's now about to be read by an A-List production company. Very exciting!

Now I just have to wait... okay, so the wait part isn't my forté, but at least I'm this far. My advice is to invest in yourself and this platform is a great way to do it. #thanksStage32
Vincent, I sure did read "Stand Tall!" (Both on here and on Script Revolution.) And Monika, I'd like to read the script you turned in to that A-list production company!
Thank you -- I think this story has plenty of charm. Colleen Cossitt is an incredible character who I loved creating..
Be brave - be happy - be content - congratulations...
