Hey there all, I'm Chris and I'm new here.

A friend of mine turned me on to this site yesterday and convinced me to join. :) So here I am.

Anyways, a bit about me.

I'm obviously an aspiring screenwriter. I love writing in pretty much every genre I can get my head into: Horror, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Drama, and Family are the genres I most connect with though. Though with my stories I like to merge a lot of different genres as well. I also as a hobby and for fun, do fan-fiction on the side.

Other than writing, I love video games, movies, and oh yes, prior warning, I'm a Transformers fanboy, an insane one at that. LOL I'm also 21 and in College, and living in Las Vegas. Along with being a screenwriter, I'd love to go for a degree in Social Working, hoping to become a social worker that specializes in foster kids.

So I think that about covers it. Haha Hope to get to know all of you soon!

Welcome!


Where not like that on SS, anyway I've had my tally of souls already this month.


Welcome aboard Chris,

With a detailed intro like that you may even find a girlfriend on SS. Hee Hee.

I would have added I like long walks along the beach (Oops not in Vegas)  and romantic dinners. Hee Hee. Just kidding.

SS is the place to be and what you put into SS is what you get out of it.

Welcome and look forward to seeing you around.

Thanks! :)

Welcome, Chris.  As others have said, jump inj and read and post feedback.  It's the best way to get rads on your own work, when you're ready to post.

Also, understand that no one (well, other than a few A-Holes) wants to hear all positives and how wonderful everything is.  So, be honest, be fair, and be cool.  Some of the best feedback you'll ever get, will be downright negative - but it's how you learn and that's always what counts.

BTW, I was in Vegas the 16th through 19th and your town took an awful lot from me, including my voice.  Literally couldn't talk until 4 days later.

Enjoy your time here, bro.

Hey Chris, I'm Jeff, BTW.

I always have fun in Vegas, but it doesn't seem to be "my town" anymore.  Could be an age thing, I think...as in my present age doesn't appreciate the level of partying I attempt when there.

I have recovered from Vegas, but now I'm trying to recover from memorial Day Weekend!  It's always something.
