Hello all...

[jimmydean]

Wow, my first post. Good to see such an informative site.

Anyways, I guess intro's are necessary:

I just started screenwriting this year, and although I've written four, I'd only truly say I've finished two.

Anyone willing to read some of my work I'd much appreciate, and I'd return the favour. Anwyays, look forward to contributing to this community.

Jimmydean.

Tell us a little about yourself.

Where are you from, what kind or stories do you write, what books have you read?

If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Post a few pages and see how people respond to your work.

Welcome!

Huh, not much of an intro! What do you write? What do you love to watch?

Is jimmydean your real name? Did your parents love his music and acting, but believed capital letters were tools of Satan?

There's a Screenwriting Critique Board folder just trembling with anticipation at seeing your script pages!

... or are you associated with Jimmy Dean Sausage? Breakfast sounds good right now !

Sorry.

I am 23, live in Australia, and write comedies. I find that I seem to write well in the comedic format so I've decided to stick with what I know and do so.

Started to write following a sport accident earlier in the year in which I broke my ankle. Sitting around for a while I decided to keep my mind busy and write a screenplay, never looked back.

My real name is James, but people call me Jimmy, hence the nickname.

Currently writing a higher concept comedy, as opposed to the family, and stupid "Office Space" style comedies I've written.

Still learning, and I guess you never stop right?

Welcome,

You've found the right place. Lots of great people here. The best way to learn is purchase a few books on the subject, read all the scripts you can, write as much as you can, and be critical of your own work. :)

Can't wait to read what you have.
