Introduce Yourself : Open mouth insert foot by Shannon Scruggs

Shannon Scruggs

Open mouth insert foot

Hi, ya'll. I'm a screenwriter who is obviously painfully new to this site, but I am looking to build and develop a network of connections. I'm not shy, and I will happily engage in any meaningful exchange of ideas. Nice meeting ya'll.

Dawn Prato

Nice to meet you, Shannon, and welcome! What kind of stories do you like to tell? :)

Shannon Scruggs

Hi, Dawn. Thanks for the welcome. I enjoy stories of multiple genres, but I lean toward action/adventure. I am also just beginning a new horror script. I will go for anything probably, except comedy. For some reason I don't think I'm funny.

Dawn Prato

Shannon Scruggs I think comedy (at least for me!) is really difficult to do. Reworking the jokes in my head makes them so familiar that they don't quite seem to land the way I'd like them to, it's true.

Maurice Vaughan

Welcome, Shannon. Nice to meet you.

Shannon Scruggs

Thank you, Maurice. Pleasure to met you, tool

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome. Do you just write features?

Shannon Scruggs

At this point, that is all I have been writing, but I am open to the possibilities of TV or shorts. I have three completed features, all with recommend ratings from ScriptReaderPro.

Michael Howard

Welcome, Shannon!

Karen "Kay" Ross

Thanks for the welcome, Karen. I just started in on a horror feature, with a female lead.

Daniel Stuelpnagel

Shannon Scruggs sounds like with three solid features you are well into the game, your loglines sound dramatic and compelling!

Maurice Vaughan

Congrats on the recommends, Shannon Scruggs.

Shannon Scruggs

Thank you Daniel and Maurice for the kind comments.

Maurice Vaughan

I write female lead characters also, Shannon Scruggs. I think most of my scripts have female lead characters.

Hi Shannon Scruggs , take these two painkillers and call me in the morning, s'il vous plait : )

No painkillers needed. I love the taste of shoe leather. But merci, for the thought. Lol.

Sandeep Gupta

lol, de rien. why burn leather in the yard when those two web pages give you the whole nine yards?

or just as likely you already took those two pills (web pages) and I am patronizing : )

likely because I came to those pages too late.
