Introduce Yourself : Welcome to all those just discovering Stage 32 and the tremendous op it offers screenwriters by Ricki Linksman

I am celebrating 2 years of being a member of Stage 32's writer's lounge. Just today I was reflecting on the amazing opportunities screenwriters who don't live in LA or NY have on Stage 32 that we never would have access to. It would take several hours to list all the benefits and the incredible ops I have had over the past 2 years. If someone were to tell you that you could spend an hour on the phone or in a webinar class with the execs at all levels who are involved with making some of the great films and TV shows of our times, you most likely wouldn't believe it possible if you don't live in LA. But there is not a week that goes by even while living in Chicago that I am not talking to these execs by phone or zoom in some capacity, either through a consult or pitch session or through a webinar, lab class, and all the great special lounge events that R.B. Botto and Jason Mirch and their amazing team, like Amanda, Angela, Kay, Brooklyn, and others set up for us and help facilitate. All those joining for the first time, you are in for a special treat. And a shout out to all the fellow members of the writer's lounge, who have become friends and writing team members as we all support each other on our journeys!
