I love the fact that this edition and our guest from MoviePoet recognize short works as good territory and breaking ground for young/new writers.
Everything I've ever sent out for serious consideration has either been published or given me a special call back from judges. That's NOT a big accomplishment!!! I've only sent off two serious works. As you can see, I'm not anxious to skim something off. Point is though, they've both been short works and those short works took a very long time from their initiation to an apparent good conclusion of "Yay! You did a good job Babe!"
Here on Simply, we have challenges, and I hope that most people realize the difference between challenges and contests. Indeed, challenges are just that-- meant to challenge and the degree of challenge is always suspect, depending upon the person's degree of skill and also, what they're diving into.
A skilled writer in one genre might dip into another genre that is completely out of their territory and thus, they risk perhaps, their image where it's hard, (even for the toughest skinned individual) to take. Hey, we might write horror sometimes, but we've got hearts!!!
Fact is, writing a substantial piece that runs the distance is bloody hard to do. Sites like MoviePoet and Simply help writers because they supply an environment to work and learn and most important-- the component that I love: Experience! Can't get that from a book. Nope!
I love to see people's creativity on Youtube. If you've got passion; you've got voice!
I don't know if people realize how groundbreaking this really is. I'm flabbergasted and as astonished as you, S.R.!!! Let's see more people hook up here!
First off, the potential that writers have here working together on Simply is pretty gosh darn amazing. Are many of us entirely green? Yes, but we have strengths and weaknesses and loads of conflict, but also, we have something in common: Some kind of passion that is both devilish and almost like a poison, and also very sweet and intoxicating.
Having a Youtube channel, that Jayrex has worked to implement along with the newly established Simplyscripts radio makes me just wanna go "Wow! Wow! Wow!"
Especially, because I get to watch people grow up not only by virtue of the fact of their writing, but also as individuals. You can see it on the page!
I'm very excited about this and to be able to see the growth and feel it is just so wonderful. You never appreciate something unless you put a lot of effort into it and I truly hope that Don is starting to feel "the reward" of "the baby" that he conceived and has nurtured all along.
To Don, and to everyone here that works so hard, I raise a Le Chaim!
I think it's great. I just don't have anything to put up there since all my films are made by other people and I don't know that I can add them. Most of them are not online because they are pursuing the festivals and the few things I have made are not by scripts from SS.

I'm not sure, but I thought S.R. was referring to us just getting on there and making ourselves known, as in: "We're heeere."
The point is to raise your voice, say hello and BE PRESENT. That's what I'm gleaning from this. You don't need to be "the big man" of "the big woman". Just be here and add your voice.
If you know of any youtube videos that are ss scripts. Put them in this thread. This way they could easily be added as favorites on the youtube channel.
I can't remember which ones are on youtube. I know that sounds weird, but.... I'll look around. I know Shelton's got a bunch. And how about the Machinimas Michael? Some SS people are involved in those. Not to mention the Dark series...
