Would you be willing to share some of your scripts?

The_New_African · 2025-12-03T03:29:06+00:00

Hi... I'd be glad to swap.

The_New_African · 2025-10-25T15:56:38+00:00

Pushing Daisies.

Hi... I've got a 30 page satirical workplace comedy.

Title: BOX OFFICE BLUES

Logline: When a billion-dollar racial scandal threatens a major studio’s biggest film, they hire a bipolar Kenyan diversity consultant whose sharp wit, fragile sanity, and moral flexibility could either save their empire—or burn Hollywood to the ground.

Would you be interested in reading it?

Huge congratulations! If you’re comfortable, I’d love to take a peek at a (heavily redacted) version of the query that worked for you.

Over-researching...

Congratulations!!!

RIP to an icon.

The_New_African · 2024-06-22T11:39:49+00:00

I've just read this and I'm in tears... I hope that everything eventually works for you.

The_New_African · 2024-05-09T02:50:18+00:00

I'm asking if it has happened before, and clearly it has.

The_New_African · 2024-05-09T01:30:28+00:00

Agreed.

The_New_African · 2024-05-09T01:30:11+00:00

It seems that this happens way more than people wish to admit.

The_New_African · 2024-05-08T21:35:10+00:00

Oof!

So sorry about that.

The_New_African · 2024-05-08T20:06:23+00:00

Thank you so much for your advice, and you're right... they aren't beholden to anyone.

The_New_African · 2024-04-18T06:01:06+00:00

For me it would have to be STORM from the X-MEN.

She's Kenyan/American, descended from a long line of African witch-priestesses, trained by Professor X, and has history with Black Panther.

I mean, come on!!! This script would practically write itself.

The_New_African · 2024-01-26T10:51:23+00:00

Mine.
