Michelle Conklin's Lounge Discussions

Thanks for letting us know

I'm polishing mine up. I plan to submit.

Best of luck to you Anita!

Appreciate the last minute notice! Done.

Hi, Karen Thomas. Great artwork! I really like your style. Best to you and Michelle Conklin on your projects.

Michelle Conklin sounds like you have many, many stories and ideas always percolating. Sometimes there are not enough hours in the day, or days in the week. Good luck on your teleplay - and sending good thoughts on success your way as well. I'd love to hear your progress on it!

For me - I am handling this in one step at a time. On the horror (lovecraftian in flavor) it is going to be a very dark comedy and very women centered on family legacy -- after working on the presentation on scene craft -- I'm busting at the seams to get the feature done. I just keeping picturing the moment that it's ready to be read and I get to pitch it.

Maurice Vaughan Thank you for the compliment! I hope your projects are going well.

You're welcome, Karen Thomas. My projects are doing well. Best to you on your work and pitching.

Best of luck on your project !

Hi Michelle Conklin welcome!!!!! And I will say, your mom is the best for letting you skip school! lol

Hey Michelle! Great to see you on here!! Write on!

Hi Michelle! Great to see a fellow Arizona writer on here! I too have been lurking around here absorbing more than contributing. But I guess I’ll start trying to change that too! And I feel you on the balancing act of working and writing!

I work full-time, and I know what you go through. ;) Still working on my first scripts, after publishing several novels. Keep up and don't give up. It's a lot of work, but it's so worth it.

You should definitely make that 10-page family comedy! From the title, I immediately started singing it to the tune of the 80's song, "My Sharona": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BR2JtsVumFA Apparently it's from '79?! Huh.

And with a short film, organizing a little table read wouldn't take much and it's SO energizing to have it read out loud!

For the scripts you're looking to sell, have you put together a pitch for any of them? I would recommend using Stage 32's free Pitching Guidebook to help you structure your pitch: https://www.stage32.com/sites/stage32.com/themes/two/pdfs/happy-writers/...

Once you have your 2-page written pitch document or 5-minute verbal pitch read, sign up for a pitch session with an active development executive here: https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/pitch-sessions If you're not sure who to sign up with, definitely reach out to our Director of Script Services, Jason Mirch, who is excellent at matching projects with potential executives (or maybe managers, in your case): J.Mirch@stage32.com
