Hi Dwi. I'm RB, Founder and CEO of Stage 32. As a screenwriter, producer, actor and filmmaker, I know first-hand the challenges all creatives face finding work, landing representation, launching projects, securing funding and simply making the connections that will make a difference in their careers. That's why I created Stage 32. Since our launch in September of 2011, the community has grown to 1,000,000+ members representing every country on the planet making Stage 32 the social network uniquely populated with the most creative people on Earth.
This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards. We ask all new members to pay it forward by inviting 5 fellow creatives to the network and by spreading the word of Stage 32 through other social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. The more creatives, the stronger the network. The stronger the network, the more opportunities.
Thanks for joining the movement and for being a part of this most talented and inspiring community. I very much look forward to your contributions.
Thanks, and have a creative day!
RB

Thank you Steven. I appreciate the suggestions. I have read a couple of books including. Save The Cat and Story. I think that what I really need to do is take a class in screenwriting at the local university when I get a chance to do that. It may take a while.

Expand commentThank you Chaun Lee, My problem with screenwriting is that I tend to be too verbose for it. That is something I have to work on. It is telling a story in a very different way than novel writing. I have said that if you compare to poetry, an novel is a sonnet and screenwriting is haiku. It takes some discipline for the sonnet writer to scrape off all the beautiful frills and fills and trim everything down to the bare beautiful essence that touches our subconscious affiliation to image versus the conscious need for eloquent word filled descriptions. I have to learn how to simplify and cut to the purest essence of the story in order to be a good screenwriter.

Expand commentI agree. I read a lot of novels and wrote two manuscripts before garnering more interest in screenwriting. I'm also a poet and love the transcending depth of haikus in their vivid brevity. I believe that's what screenwriting is at its core. As a novelist, you have an advantage over most screenwriters in that, you only need to learn how to say more with less. You already understand the beats of a story and how to craft compelling characters. The rest will come with patience and dedication, both of which I'm certain you already possess in your field. Keep me posted. Are you a Writer's Room member?
