Hey everyone. I've been visiting this site for a while but haven't really being active in the community.
Where to start? there seems to be so much exciting stuff going on: the collaborative project, OWC, various threads that seem appealing to me, as well as, of course, the unprotected scripts category.
I am, of course, working on a script that I am basing on a narrative I obtained the rights to, but I'm still in the very early story structure development stages of that. So I don't think it even qualifies as a work in progress yet.
Nevertheless I want to get involved and get to know people around here. Where in the world to start? |

Hey MPaige, Welcome aboard.
...various threads that seem appealing to me, as well as, of course, the unprotected scripts category |
You meant the unproduced category, right? |

Welcome to SS, MPaige. I hope you find your time here to be protective...er, productive. Florida and Ontario? That's quite a commute. ~Pete |

Hey MPagie, welcome. Things to look out for / have a look at:
- Simplyscripts Radio, which will give you an insight into some of the core members here (you can link to it from the home page) - The upcoming OWC, which will be a great opportunity to integrate yourself and have a crack at a fun challenge - Start reading! Look out for the 'SoulShadows' series of scripts, all of which are written by established community members. Everyone loves a member who gives a good review, so that's a skill worth having - Don't be afraid to speak up in an off-topic / film review / screenwriting topic thread that interests you! - Do you have a script of your own posted here? Maybe set up a review exchange thread. - Give us a name! Do you like to be called M? Paige? Or something else altogether?
That's a start. Be respectful, show an interest, return your reads, don't be afraid to express (and back up) your opinion and you'll fit right in! |
| Guess who's back? Back again? |

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.
I go by maddie which is good enough, i guess.
I'll be sure to check out the radio program. Sounds like a good way to jump in. and I am definitely looking forward to the OWC project. sounds fun.
I'll see you all around. |

Aww. The shower rooms are my favourite spot. Just stay outta the golden ones. And the brown one is for very special interest only. Welcome to SS. Have fun. |
