Hermit wants out!
Thu, 31 May 2007, 04:03 pmHowdy.
I'm just wondering if anyone can give a fledgling writer a few tips.
I have many scripts for comedy skits, but i also have a ten minute play that I'm pretty happy with. It's a "meninist" play, about a modern man's emancipation from a life he felt he had no control or respect in.
I have Asperger's Syndrome,(which means I write ALOT....it IS compulsive)but sometimes renders me a bit derrrr when it comes to the 'unwritten social rules',or the politics of being accepted into a group/clique, etc.Which.....grrr...there seem to be a bit of in the arty world.
So...what ARE the rules?
What do I do with my work?
Should I just send it out willy-nilly, or should I be protective?
Thanks in advance to anyone who is reading and wants to respond. :-) Tad
If you look around this
Thu, 31 May 2007, 09:01 pmIf you look around this site you will find a number of people who produce their own scripts. I do for example. You need to find a group of people who will work with you to get your play on.
In the meantime, Short and Sweet is a great idea. You could also try and find some groups that do new work and submit. You'll get a lot of rejection and sometimes your script will simply vanish without trace but don't give up.
As for your disability I'm a borderline bi-polar (That's something I've never admitted to before on this site) so while it's different from Aspbergers I know how coping with being "different" can be difficult.
Keep on going.
Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing.
