I took 3 Screenwriting classes is school. I developed 1 full film screenplay and a couple of other ideas that never came to fruition.
Since then I've written 2 episodes of a collegiate comedy sitcom called "Prerequisites". I wrote it like almost 4 years ago. I thought it was witty and original, even though the premise was a complete rip off of "Arrested Development" (narration, reality style shooting). And after just recently seeing it for the first time, I now realized a lot of the story plots were virtually identitcal to "Undeclared". So that's in the crapper.
I recently wrote a full pilot episode for a zombie sitcom me and my cohorts tried to shoot. We got 7 1/2 minutes shot and were intending on making it a webisode of 7-10 minute shorts per episode. We never finished it, but we cut the 7 1/2 minute version down to 3 minutes for FX's Always Sunny Sitcom Competition. We did not win. Not even close. But you can view our movie here:
I play the skeezy fat guy opposite the poofy haired guy. I suppose that can serve as my "This is me" post.
Also, this was a student film we had to make for one of our classes. We never wrote anything, we just came up with an idea, shot that idea, and then expounded upon it further. This was the end result, feel free to bash it:
I write, i am freelance and write anything i can. Normally its just magazine articles. Have written loads of other stuff too from short stories, poems, lyrics, even text for websites.
I am working on a couple of books. These are quite a big project for me and are my babies. One is semi-biographical telling a warped story via a suicide note. The other is a comedy, sci fi story more aimed at young teens.

I write everyday. It pays the bills. Well I guess I write everyday. I am a sports editor down in LA (lower alabama). Some days it is easy and some days it is rough. I have actually started putting together a book of southern sayings....we down south can never say it is just "hot outside" or that it is "raining." We have to add a reference point that mostly makes no sense.....drunk as a bicycle or stouter' than a half acre of garlic....hard as the times in 1929......anyway I think it might make for an interesting book. Either that or one titled...."You just can't make that shit up" full of "No Shit stories.
I write. Years back had some stuff published in a magazine. Been working on a novel for a while. I have my blog which is mostly just bullshit about my life, but have posted stories before.
It doesn't pay the bills, but keeps me relatively sane.
you play Guitar Hero naked... I play REAL guitar topless!

I'll be sure to post my thesis up here when I'm done writing it. Who needs to be published in a scientific peer-reviewed journal when you can just stick it up on DSF and have your boobs posted just a few threads away?
Actually, maybe I should stick nudes in the thesis, I may get more folks to actually read it that way.
