Dang! Can't remember when I joined Stage 32, but it's been an incredible ride. Such an incredible supportive tribe for creatives in all lanes.
I'm TV/Film writer with a comedy focus. However during this Panda Express I'm finding that my scripts are edging from broad to dark comedy. Similar to What We Do in the Shadows (Fox) vein and I'm enjoying it!
A few months ago I was focused on seeking representation but my drive to write amped up as story ideas flowed. So I'm taking a short pause on "seeking" and just focusing on writing and digging into the 20 books I bought last year.
This interesting time has been a teachable moment for me on process. I'm already a flexible writer but I'm deepening that skill right now.
A warm welcome to the new members!
What's driving you now???
Cheers!

Have you met Sandeep Sharma? He's a friend of mine, also in NYC, director/editor, and just all-around great human. I think you'd enjoy meeting him! https://www.stage32.com/profile/19439/about

It’s understandable if you are edging to black comedy in such a complexión time. Seeking for agents can be a tough task. I’m just trying to keep on writing. Cheers!
