Merry Christmas

I want to wish all Stage 32 writers, producers, etc. a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

This year, I have completed 3 first drafts, and next year, I will be rewriting them and adding new scripts. I am hoping to get feedback on all of my scripts to get them at least optioned in the coming year.

Hey Jim! Great to have you in the Stage 32 community! Thank you for the update. You're inspiring me to have more of a balance in my life. Physical activity is so important for our mental health and creativity. Time to get up from behind the computer screen and hit the gym!
