I recently read Jenna Glazter's book about writing scams and here I am! I just wanted to say that it is an awesome book and I love that writers have a thinktank like this one!

I recently graduated from college and want to make a career for myself as a screenwriter. I was a film major in school and absolutely LOVE the craft! I currently read scripts for a production company and temp as an admin assistant. Any advice for me???

Welcome!

For whatever it might be worth, feel free to take a look at my piece on The Pursuit of Publishing. It is not on-point for screenwriting, but might still be of interest.

Nice to have you here.

P.S. Maybe you would like to try your screenwriting skills on Wyla the Witch. It has the makings of a movie.

This site will transform your writing if you give it a chance.

joined two years ago, picked up my first paid publication 18 months later in a major magazine. Never would have happened without this site.

Don't be afraid to jump in and offer critiques. Crits are the best way to learn. Basically, you get out of this site what you put into it. THis is an INCREDIBLE writing community that is very supportive and understanding. This group is one of which keeps me writing.

Also, after you get more than 50 posts, some more features and forums become avialable to you.

Welcome, and hope you stick around
