Welcome to the boards Curt!

Yeah, any opinion is better than no opinion...in my opinion.  People are grateful of any input and gladly return the favor.  So best of luck, can't wait to check out some of your writing.

Thanks John, and I agree with what 'choo said!

And ohhh, I already gots a nickname!  Success!  Woo!  Curty Popsicles, haha.  Thanks!  And I'm excited to get my work here too.  The script I'll post is like my first proper spec-script.

I've written a few fan-fictions (Scream 5, Scream 6, Friday the 13th reboot) but I would never dream of posting theme here since I wrote them when I was first starting out.

I also have written a horror script called The Black Bay Woods.  I might/might not post it here.  Before I post anything though, I will review a couple scripts first

YOU'RE ALL SO NICE AND NON-MURDEROUS.

Quoted from AmbitionIsKey
Yeah, that's my main concerns about leaving reviews here.  I don't want people to be all "oh, he's only 16.  He's a darn kid, what does he know!" when I am leaving a critique, so hopefully it doesn't go that way!


You write this as if a teen's opinion is worth less than someone older.  In reality, we need opinions from a wide variety of people to see how our scripts hold up.

Read a script and write what you feel.

Oh - and one more bit of advice about reviews?  My two cents (although I'm sure it'll be echoed by everyone else.)

Don't hold back.  Don't worry about hurting someone's feelings. Say exactly what you feel.  Be respectful, of course.  And don't pick things apart for no reason.

But in the world of writing, constructive criticism is far, far more valuable than sugarcoated praise...

Thanks Phil, for the reassurance!   I agree with 'ya bout that!

@Wonk -- yea, I agree.  I dislike when people sugar-coat things so in reviews I give I shall make sure not to do that!  

@Dreamscale -- Hi!  And, oh, okay, ha!  I... guess.. I will? lol.

@Crooke -- Thanks!  Oh, I guess you guys can call me Curt, since everyone seems to write that and it gives me an excuse to leave out two letters in my name when typing.  I be lazy.

Welcome to SS Curt!

The more you read other people's scripts the faster others are willing to return the favor.

Don't worry about your age, we have quite a few youngsters on this site. Including Dan Botha aka (Jeff Jr. in training) who's your age. He's come a long way in a short time with his writing and reviews and I'm sure if you're willing to put in the time and energy that he has nobody will even notice that your a teenager.

Best of luck!

Welcome!

The most important thing is to be a seeker, not a parrot.

Good Luck

Trust me mate, no one on the boards is like that. I'm 15 years old and I have yet to have someone criticize me purely on my age. They're all incredibly friendly and encouraging as long as you treat others the same way.

Welcome to the boards. If you're serious about writing, stick around. It's a great place to learn.

Oh yeah, 'Thistles' is also my favourite script on the boards. I have a feeling you and I are going to get on just fine CurtyPoo/Pie/Pop.

New members are awesome when you give us so many nicknames to reference you by

Cheers and welcome

Dan

You're in for a nice surprise . In all seriousness, if you ever get a review from Jeff don't take it personally. He'll ht it hard, but it's all worth it

Hey Curt

What about ye mucker?   "A wee belfast wain"

Don't gloat too much about the titanic... it didn't have a happy ending although it was driven by the english

It's a great site, with great people all willing to help, as was noted don't be afraid to leave reviews, any comments... it's all good.
