Hi fellow screenwriters,
I, like so many others, am brand new to script writing. Several years ago I watched a documentary concerning the subject of my screenplay.  At that time, I knew that someday I would write something about it. So I have been working away for a couple of months,  writing, reading screenplays, watching You Tube videos, reading books, reading discussions about screenplays, proper formatting, and generally trying to understand the screenwriting process. When I figure out how to submit something for discussion I will.  I am totally computer illiterate. Hell, I don't even have a cell phone
I am Canadian and the subject of my screenplay is also a Canadian story, but I think it would have universal appeal.
Although my knowledge of screenwriting is limited, I am a good language editor. I guess for now that is what I will most likely talk about in "discussion."

Welcome to SS, Diane. Take a look around, and jump in when you’re ready. There’s the beginnings of a newcomer’s guide (and an example of how links aren’t especially obvious in this forum software).

When you’d like to discuss bits of your own project, the usual places are Screenwriting Class for snippets and My Work In Progress for partial scripts. But you definitely don’t need to wait for that to have something to say.


Feature-length scripts:
Who Wants to Be a Princess? (Family)
Glass House (Horror anthology)

TV pilots:
"Kord" (Fantasy)
"Mal Suerte" (Superhero)

Additional scripts are listed here.
