Brag!  Why brag about everything, to everyone, all over the internet, when you could SIMPLY(tm) put your brags into this "brag bag!"

I often encourage, often braggingly, bragging often, but I brag... often.  So here's where to brag! 

If you want to feel better than everyone else, because face it: you ARE better than everyone else, tell us first!  So who's first?  You can brag about being first!

I just finished my first script that's going to be produced by someone else than me.

Well, my screenplay, "Halloween Games" (that I won the 209 Horror Challenge with) made me a semi-finalist in the Write Movies Screenplay Contest.
I really don't see it going any further, to the finals I mean, because there are sooo many excellent writers out there. I feel so lucky to have it come that far. They will pick the finalists next month.

Cindy,

That is a brag worth bragging.  Congrats on the semi-finalist standing!

I don't know if this is worth a brag. I rarely come online now and when I checked my e-mail, this guy from some 'Independent Films' company said he read both of my scripts which I posted here "This Is Your Life" & "The Man Upstairs" and said they were great.
The bragging thing is, he was  from a movie company and took time out to e-mail me about two of my scripts!

But I think it was like a joker from this website. Don't really care though.

I published a novel last year and several short stories.  It's tough to switch gears from writing novels to screenplays though.  Novels are sooooo...more about the author's actual feelings about characters and events and screenplays are...all about - if you can't see or hear it...don't put it down.  They're both a real challenge.

I just survived an 11 day european vacation in which i visited three cities in three different countries (one of which i was almost killed in a couple of times because i kept looking the wrong way down the street) and the most uncomfortable 14 hour overnight train ride of my life.  And I did not have anything stolen the whole time I was overseas!

Also, I survived two 16 hour flights.  There and back here.  Lived to tell the tale and bring back souvenirs.

Over 1,000 readers on the home site of the Buffy spin-off 'Chris & Sunday' can't be wrong!

I think Jackson Cruise is one of the best Virtual Series I've seen on the net. Not just because I created it, but because it tackles ideologies and themes that are important to discuss, without making them preachy... not to mention the way it genre hops from action, to humour, and comedy to pathos.

over 1,000 readers on the home site alone can't be wrong!


They never are.  A perfect brag!  That's exactly what this thread was made for!  Thanks!

I got my A Level results today (am from the UK by the way lol). I needed ABB to get into my first choice Uni, and I got AAB!!!

Psychology - A
Drama -        A
Geography - B

So I'm going to do Film Studies at Exeter! (Adam, if you're reading this, yes I got into "THE Uni!!" lol). That probably means nothing to most of you, but it's quite a hard University to get into and there are only about 10 places on my course! Ah will be so cool, it's in the south so I'll be by the beach and have good weather (a novelty in England lol). I don't normally brag about things but I'm psyched and I guess this is the place to do it!! I'm off to go and get wasted now! Bye!!!

Roll on September 25th!!!!!

I'd like to brag about my daughter. She is the only reason worth crawling out of bed every morning.

It's kind of early to say, but I may just finally have my dream internship for the fall at Universal.

You see, my absolute dream job would be to work for Focus Features.  I believe in (and have seen) nearly every film they've distributed.  

I told them so in my desperate sounding cover letter LOL...I will kill myself - repeat - KILL MYSELF if you people don't take me on the minute I graduate. ;D

Keep you posted on this one.

Well, I guess I can congradulate myself, because my horror/thriller script "The Capture," which is also posted here... is now in the hands of Sony Pictures. They haven't bought it yet, but the assistant hyped it up and now the Exec has it, so I feel good about it. Also, the same assistant is good friends with Adam Sandler, and I just completed a romantic comedy script. I am submitting it next week, and she's going to get it to Adam's production company, which happens to be on Sony's lot also.

Call it luck, but I'm calling this an act of God.

I congradulate  myself -- INDEED!

Okay Universal never got back to me, but NBC did, so I have an interview with them Tuesday at 12:30. :)

Oh yeah, GL starwriter... happy 4 U. :)

I have a third script up on this site, entitled, 'Tocsin.'  It is currently being produced by Raw Nerve and can be found in the shorts section.

Phil - what's the status of burnout, last I remember you were in the secound round of a contest?  Did you get the WGA rep?

NBC... Universal... hey, they both own the rights to Walker, Texas Ranger, so it's all gravy no matter what.

Well, this is just a small brag, but last night I just finished the first draft of my college quasi-mockumentary. It took me two days of non-stop writing. Needless to say, I've been dying to get out of the house.
