Screenwriter looking for representation

Hello everyone! I'm a screenwriter living in Southern California looking for representation that can help me get my work in front of studios. I have several screenplays available in the horror/supernatural/urban fantasy genres, one of which has won two screenwriting competitions for best feature screenplay, and placed in several others. I also have a TV Bible and pilot episode available, titled Hellish. Please contact me if interested. You can also email me directly at scottdokey@hotmail.com.

Your best bet is to pick one project and push it, push it, push it, otherwise it's, "I have several screenplays available" yada, yada, yada.

You got several, but not one that's for a film that MUST be made? Or are they all for films that MUST be made? (Hard to believe)

And placing in competitions is an answer to a question that needs to be asked before it's answered. Thousands of people have won competitions. But those scripts are rarely suited to production. Unless it's the Nicholls, pretty much forgetaboutit.

Even if you write it, you still have to go to them. They will not come to you. You want representation, you need to start aggressively marketing one project to Agents and Managers. You can tell them all about your portfolio of unproduced materials if they ask.

But first you have to get them to show interest n ONE of your projects.
