Lost Now Found: Story of Ashley-Monet Hyphenate Creative from NY
Hi Everyone. My name is Ashley-Monet, just finished writing the first draft of a script I have been writing for over a decade! Whoo-hoo. I am an actress-writer transitioning over from the corporate, hospitality world.
Hey, Ashley-Monet Rose Andrews! So good to meet you! Dude, I feel that hyphenate LOL! I love that you're still at it - it's so easy to give up in this business, but we're here to help you keep going!
Oh, hey, small world - I was a massage therapist for 14 years! It's what paid my way through film school. What enticed you into writing and acting?
I’m sure you’ve already discovered the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting), but definitely reach out on the Acting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/acting) as well! Keep in mind that these lounges are like the VIP Filmmaker's Lounges at Film Festivals, so this is where you can meet the people doing the work, get advice on anything you're working on, and/or give back to those who may need advice. We're a very supportive and encouraging community! I think you'd also enjoy my intro blog post on how to engage with the Stage32 Community:
Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect! And, of course, feel free to reach out at any time. Cheers!
I started writing because my mentor got sick of me dumping my ideas and issues. It’s always been therapeutic to me, and now I feel the charge to be a voice for the voiceless and underdogs of the world. You’re a healer I can see. Massage therapists are hero’s!!

You reminds me myself, I'm in that transition position right now, from hospital to the film industry.
