I like Carson. Scriptshadow is a daily read for me. But sometimes he's off. The last AF script he gave high praises to had me and most of his commenters like
But ya, it's a good way to get exposure. People in the industry love him or hate him and both of those groups read the blog daily.

Where Angels Must Die? He put it down before I could get to read it. Supposedly the writer not has people backing him up.
I find sometimes those on the site (including him) are more pessimistic than your everyday people... but hey maybe that's just how I see it lol.
i know i got some pm's from people in this thread, but man, i just dont give a fukk about writing right now. can't even wrap my head around it, have no desire to discuss it so I'm not gonna be any help at the moment. sorry. I have such little work ethic that the second something feels like a job, i lose interest. it's a terrible thing. I'm supposed to be working on multiple things that can lead to shyt, but i can't even start b/c it feels like a total chore and not fun anymore. my "attitude sucks."
also, scriptshadow sucks now, b/c some a$$holes who wrote a shytty script got panned and they complained causing him to not send out the scripts every week. he used to give you everything he read, but then 2 guys who turns out asked to be reviewed got a bad review and claimed it was an early draft and bytched. also people seem to hate him on screenwriting sites, and it all seems like sour grapes. he's finding a way in, no matter how he did it, he's finding it, and that's bothering people.

When writing a spec, how much does it matter if the show is not on the air?
I'm thinking of writing a Happy Endings one...

Went to a seminar a few weeks ago and they said it's a waste of time. Always write current stuff. Contests won't accept anything that isn't currently in production

Dammit.
I had a pretty decent idea that would fit perfect with a couple of the H.E. characters.
It's a little too 'pop culture-y' for New Girl
i have an old pot themed screenplay that i want to turn into an "epic" Workaholics 2-parter... but it's currently 6th in the que of scripts i talk about but never write. It wouldn't even take much time, all I'd ha to do is cut the story down and change names/dialogue... but alas, I'm too busy being not busy.
and my new genius idea - three words - Billy. Madison. Baseball. just think about it, and tell me a complete ripoff of that movie except about a pro athlete working his way back up the ranks wouldn't be gold. Don't steal that.

they have a site called simplyscripts.com you guys should check out.
my shyt got stolen from there years ago, and 95% of the people on the message boards are retards.
good looking out on the heads up. i was going to register there this week.
if you really want to get advice on your screenplays you should go to
Absolute Write | Write hard. Write true. And write on.
That's the basic internet writers' community. You'll get some really good criticism there.
