An Idiot From Liverpool!!

Hello from the UK. Just saying ‘hi’. I’m a professional TV scriptwriter now about to finish my 4th feature. Like to write funny stuff. And drink wine. Anyone in North West England please pop round anytime!

Hi, Johanne McAndrew. Congratulations on getting close to finishing your 4th feature!

Ashley Renée Smith

Hi Johanne McAndrew, welcome, and I love the headline. I’m Ashley, Head of Community here at Stage 32, and it’s so great to have you here. A professional TV writer finishing your fourth feature, that’s fantastic!! Since you’re actively writing at a professional level, I’d definitely recommend staying regularly active in the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting). It’s a strong space for ongoing craft conversations, connecting with other working writers, and staying visible within the community.

If you’re interested in more direct industry-facing opportunities, the Writer’s Room can also be a valuable resource. It offers open writing assignments, professional feedback, and Zoom sessions with working producers and executives. It’s a great way to expand your network beyond your immediate circle. You can explore a free month here if you’d like:

And I’d love to invite you to my FREE February Community Open House next week. I’ll be walking through how to navigate Stage 32 strategically, build meaningful connections, and make the most of the platform at any career stage:
