Hi
I'm back again at SS after creating a new account after maybe 6 years away? Thanks to Don, I appreciate it..
A lot of folk already know me here..
Been screenwriting for years but not written anything for over 17 months due to me having to find a day job to earn a living which hasn't left much time for anything else to be honest..
I've noticed a lot of my screenwriter acquaintances from Done Deal Pro, facebook and SS have either had some of their scripts optioned or sold, some are in pre-production, all of which has give me a kick up the butt to get back into screenwriting again. I'm friends with a few folk from SS on facebook and considered it probably the right time to return here after what happened a few years ago (I won't go into that)..
I've written or co-written about 8 feature screenplays and a bunch of shorts over the years and I don't mind showing some of these scripts to those who wish to read them.. Rather than hang them on SS folk can make a personal request for either one of my horror scripts or a thriller which were taken to 10 drafts or more and are were pretty much solid. It's always more difficult to let out co-written scripts to read especially if your co-writer doesn't wish you to let them out.. Anyways, you can always ask if you wish to read any of my material..
I'd like to slowly get back into writing, first by reading and offering notes on other people's scripts.. I may take a while before I find a script which I feel I can offer the writer or writers my opinion on their work.. Just a matter of feeling my way back in and fitting in back into the SS community without ruffling any feathers...
I'm extensively well-read both published books and I own a large screenplay library with approx 20,000 screenplays of which I've probably read 5,000 of them.. I have scripts from the early 1900s all the way up to the present day, scanned and digital.. I've also been known to reformat a lot of scripts myself using Movie Magic Screenwriter and Final Draft and have a large cache of those too..
Just hope I can offer my own brand of critique (notes) on folks work with the view this helps any of you in your own screenwriting goals...
Thanks
Good to be back
Kevan |

Hey Kevan
Been here about a year myself. Still learning quite a bit, and grateful for the site. Glad you've rejoined. Best of luck with the writing.

Hi Kevan,
Nice to have you back. I've only been around since last August but since then it seems to me that several previous members have returned. I can't compare with the "old days" but it seems quite active around here at the moment.
Anything of yours posted here?
cheers

Hey Kevan, Have only been on SS a couple of months myself, I think having someone of your experience can only be helpful to everyone here. Welcome back! Steve |

Hi Andrew No I'm not averse to letting people have access to any of my scripts... Anybody can ask me for anything and if I have what you or anybody are looking for then consider this a done deal. No problem.. Thanks for the welcome. |
