Good news! What's your script about?

Comedy, my version of why the Vikings left Newfoundland 1000 years ago

Hi, @Jason Lawson. I’m a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. I wanted to let you know I moved your post from the Producing Lounge to the Anything Goes Lounge because it’s promoting an outside contest. Let me know if you have any questions. Congratulations again on being a Finalist!

Congrats Jason Lawson

Congratulations, @Jason Lawson!

Good luck! I was a finalist there, too, a few years back. And it got me nowhere.

Good luck

There is no one way to get an agent. It is difficult to land a good agent, but it's not impossible. I'd submit work to screenplay contests, attend film festivals and have plenty of scripts and business cards with you to pass around. You can also submit to agencies. The key is to keep writing and keep getting feedback on your work. Good luck!

Bought one very cool motorcycle

I got $500 for a 5 page short. I have no idea what I spent it on though... Since I don't remember, it was probably nothing useful, lol.

loans :(

Paid for my wedding.

We cannot survive by our script writing so we choose a rich husband or lover,we work in another profession from 8 to 4,we know that writing is a drug as you said Laurence so beautifully and we pray that our creation will be recognized some day even postmortem and a beautiful book or film will come out of it.This is exactly what an artist do and an artistic creation of all sort is a must for the artist whatever the public thinks of it. IF THE ARTIST IS DISCOVERED BEFORE HE IS DEAD, GREAT.if not it's a pity Continue to paint, sculpt,draw,write otherwise you'll die inside yourself. writing is not a drug which kills but a drug which make you survive beautifully.

While I'm waiting for my brilliance to be discovered I unload trucks. Most people would have given up by now, but quitting would empty my life.

Rich lover? Where do I sign up for that program?

No chance I have already a rich husband and could not decently write and have such active sexual life.I am also 73 and feel quite old at this time of my life. I have missed you dear.sorry.

Philip: I have not seen the Milius documentary on Netflix. I haven't seen anything on Netflix. Don't have an account. But I will attempt to search it out and take a look. John was (and is) one of a kind.
