Out of curiosity I was wondering who's the most prolific writer on this site? Who's got the most features and who's got the most shorts. Has anyone ever done a specific count?
SS usually doesn't promote competition among members. There are certainly some writers who are better than others, but I've never seen people make a habit of creating competition like this. If they did, I doubt SS would have as many members as they do .
I was just curious about the "facts". And the fact is there's one member on this site that has the most features and one member who has the most shorts. It's that simple.
In that case, I don't think anyone's done a full count. Probably never felt the need for it .
Perfectly legitimate question, however.
Not sure about Features, but I think Helio has the most Shorts.
Provided they are all still up, I am pretty sure he had in excess of 50.
Hit and miss, for sure -- much like his English, sometimes -- but he is a unique storyteller, and much of his work was quite good for those who could overlook minor flaws in language.
A writer writes and that's what makes a writer a writer. Right? Right.
I think you misunderstand - it's easy to fling out a heap of work - the OWC shows we can all write a short in a week, but quality is a different thing.
A writer re-writes, so the amount of finished product may be less, but the writing (and re-writing) that went in to it may well be more.
Practice makes perfect. Show me a writer with 30 features under his/her belt and I'll show you a writer who's gotten better with every script he/her has written. So quantity does matter.
Quantity eventually promotes quality. We can only hope.
Dena (pale yellow) write about a new feature every 2 months. Leegion seems to write a new feature every single month.
Then there's me...I don't write anymore for some unknown reason.
Dena doesn't write as fast these days. Ha ha....those were the diaper days my friend! Now I find myself judging my writing so much, I can barely get a script finished! Ack!
