Hello, all phoenix dwellers. Whether you live in the east valley, Mesa, Chandler, Tempe, Gilbert, or a different part of the valley, Scottsdale, wherever else there is (Can you tell I'm from the east valley?), come here to find friends close to you, and talk about... I don't know, the ridiculously hot weather and how it contributes to your writing.

GrammarGoddess! How lovely to meet you. And yes, you do have that East Valley accent. I have one as well, because I'm currently dwelling on the border of Gilbert and Chandler.

I do hope to see more of you (and more of us in the East Valley) soon!

Regards,

MaddyMac

I'm from the hinterlands up north of Prescott in Chino Valley. I must be insane to attempt this but my Muse woke me up out of a deep sleep last night and said, in a very loud voice, "Hey, I have this great idea for a parody play."

Don't know if I'll be able to attend any write-ins but I'll keep in touch via these lovely forums.

Well, it looks like there aren't too many phoenix dwellers. I thought there would be more, but the forums aren't nearly as busy as they were for nano at this time... interesting. I've never done script frenzy before, so, I didn't really know what to expect, I guess. It's great to meet you guys!

Interesting about the accent... I didn't really know there was an "east valley" accent. I'll have to look for that. It sounds like we're pretty close, Maddymac, I'm in chandler, on the edge of Gilbert, and a whole bunch of my family lives in Gilbert.

So what are you guys planning on writing about? I still haven't narrowed down a specific plot, I have a ton of ideas floating around in my head still.

If you don't have hope, what do you have?

Welcome all....one of those ditzy Scottsdale Blondes here. lol. Actually only been in Scottsdale a few months and only had the highlights a few weeks. It happens...don't move here!!!

At any rate, I'm a nano veteran, but a script frenzy virgin. I recently lost my backup hardrive with the past ten years of scripts and peices of novels on it. OUch. But my writing coach brought up a good point. Great time for a fresh start.

I had a few epiphanies while filling out my profile for this site....the main one was that all the shows, comics, movies that I love have some sort of sci-fi or fantasy element to them. Had I ever even considered writing sci-fi/fantasy before. No.

I say, this is as good a time as any to start.

Love to hear from all you other Phoenixites on your journey!

"Where do we go from here?"

Hi all, I'm from Tempe and looking to write one wicked Graphic Novel.

Good Luck to everyone!
