Hi,

I am an aspiring film maker, so I write scripts. I also write short stories. I was wondering if anyone else here was into either?

I write short stories, there is some script writing and fiction writing workshops on about.com for free, you may want to look into them. If you know half the stuff already there, that is cool, but you never know what you will pick up from there. And all the courses are for free. But just because they are for free, doesn't mean you can't get something from them. smiles, have fun.

Thanks.

I have the basics down, but am always open for help. I am actually planning on going to college for Film this spring.

I have a short horror script I'm going to use for a contest next year online. Also I am working on a feature length Horror and Drama script.

With my short stories, I usually use real life people (musicians, pro wrestlers, etc) and make something from that. I haven't written an original in a long while though.

Last time I did, I was working on a novel. It didn't pan out, ha.

I am sure if this is what you want to do, you will continue with it. I look forward to seeing you in print, and on the screen. I wish you the best of all God or whatever you believe in can give you on your pursuit of a writing career, sincerely. check out the classes, I hope it helps you on your way. happy happy
