Jim Vines here. Some of you might know me; most of you probably don't. But I'm a pro screenwriter in LA and the author of Q & A: The Working Screenwriter -- An In-the-Trenches Perspective of Writing Movies In Today's Film Industry. I also run a very popular website and blog (see links in my signature). I hope to stop by every so often and discuss the exciting, topsy turvy world of screenwriting! Until then...

Jim,

I took a peek at your site. It's interesting. I especially like the "Fatal Flaws" page.

Hope you stick around,

Seth

Enjoyed the Q&A. Especially the section on screenplay competitions, and the very last question on the page.

Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry I am a bit late but I rarely check this area of the board.

But nevertheless, welcome to the Simply Scripts board. It is always nice to have a real professional script writer around here to offer help and advice.

Oh and I checked out your website and blog. I found them to be very informative and insightful...and on quite a few occasions...humorous as well.

Jim,

Welcome to the site. I think of you often when I answer those dopey "Screenplays Wanted" ads. ;)
