Okay, whip it out! How many screenplays you got?

Anyone who knows me is aware that I've written a few screenplays. Here's my questions for you little droogies.

1. How many screenplays have you written?

2. How many feature/TV scripts did you write before you considered yourself a screenwriter?

2. How many scripts are sufficient before you've written enough of them?

Steven Hopstaken

Eight. And I sold two of them that never got produced and the rights have reverted back to me. "Let's Rob Fort Knox" was almost an Ocean's 11 spinoff but disappeared into the black hole that is development.

1) 33 feature screenplays written

2) 2 television pilots written

Doug Nelson

How many have gone into production? How many have come out of production and made it to the big or little screen?

Dan Guardino

I think you meant question 1,2,3 not 1,2,2.

1. I would say about 30.

2. I considered myself a Screenwriter after I landed an Agent and was employed as a Staff Writer.

3. Still working on it.

Chaun Lee

Ha! This is funny. Men!!!

Tony S.

Wut you got?

Chaun Lee

Lol, I’m in the corner Tony just enjoying this show.

Anthony Moore

1) 13 - Not including re-writes.

2) 0 - As soon as I learned proper formatting.

3) Doesn't matter. The goal is to have as many as I can made into movies.

Henry Kana

1) 5; 2) 3; 3) To Infinity and beyond.

Jerry Robbins

1: 7 so far

2: with my first option (4th script)

3: till the end of the road.

Katheryn: Holy mackerel!

Imo Wimana Chadband

1) 1 (now on to my second. I'm new, but I'll catch up to you veterans soon)

2) 1 :D (manifesting it from the start)

3) write until I reside underneath the earth

Phillip E. Hardy, Prolifique

Kamran: actually I declined your request.

Jim Boston

Great question, Phillip!

I've completed four scripts already...but I don't really consider myself a screenwriter yet. (Got to get one produced first!)

How many scripts are sufficient before I've written enough of them? Well, I'm like Imo in that I want to write until I die.

Thanks so much for all you do!

Dan Guardino

Kamera. The writers lounge is not a place you can solicit your business or services.
