For now at least.

Hello everybody my name is Connor and I'm a screenwriter. I mean, not officially, but you get the gist. Little bit about me.

Grew up out in the country, spent most of my time at my grandparent's house watching my uncle's film collection. Immediately fell in love with movies and the way they made me feel.

Huge fan of all the obvious television series: Six Feet Under, The Sopranos, The Wire, Veep, Boardwalk Empire, etc. If you think you're seeing a trend, you aren't crazy. My dream is to one day write for HBO. Huge fan of other television as well, but nobody's got time for that list.

I'm sort of a hobbyist historian, particularly focused on American history - The American Revolution. - Cotton Gin Slavery. - Slave communities, specifically music and food. - The American Civil War. Also I love music.

Did the whole film school thing and ended up with a BFA in Film and Media Production. Over the course of four years, the program stressed acquiring a thorough understanding of both practical and theoretical aspects of the Film and Television industry.

Currently working in gripping and set decoration for a local film union, but my focus is entirely on writing. My goal is to one day write for film and television. I have a portfolio of several projects that very I'm excited to share with the community.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone in the coming weeks and months. Happy to answer any questions you may have.

Good to meet you, Connor. I love your hobbies. Sounds like you're on a great path in this industry too. Good luck.

Welcome Connor - I echo Kevin's (leitskev) sentiments about your hobbies. Did you watch UNDERGROUND? I'm bummed they canceled it.
