I'm Shelly and i did nanowrimo for the first time last year, but i didn't win so i want to do much better on this. Plus it's an excuse to procrastinate from my revision ^-^

Hey, I'm Rach!
I did NaNo last year, and failed miserably, lol (I got like, 4000 words or something). I'm now using a discarded NaNo plot about a dysfunctional family of vampires :)
Hehe, Shelly, I'm procrastinating too - stupid GCSEs!

stupid GCSEs indeed! Well, mine are A levels but it's the same sentiment :)

Hullo. I'm Rosie, I've done Nano twice - got to about 25k the first year, and won last year! Woohoo! But entirely new to Scriptfrenzy, which is a little terrifying.

Hellooooo, I'm Taffy McT. I won NaNoWriMo last year (which was me first, by the way) and am rather fired up for Script Frenzy. Blending script-writing with revision is going to drive me crazy, I'm sure, but I don't suppose anyone will notice a difference ;P

Hey.
I'm Katherine/Kayem.
I've won NaNo thrice and attempted script frenzy last year with disastrous consequences. Hopefully, this year it's going to go a little better, although exams and other such lovelies are trying their best to get in the way :D
Erm...oh, yeah...and I would introduce my plot and characters, but I don't have any yet :<
Roll on april!

I'm Suzie. I did NaNoWriMo last year and got to 19,481 words of utter tripe. It had patches of sheer genius but it was quite rubbish! This is my first Script Frenzy and I'm also doing it a little bit to avoid AS exam revision - hurrah!
Type: Stage play.
Plot: Mm... not very narrative. A series of disparate scenes, linked by the life of one character. It's about love.
Characters: A woman and various men she has been emotionally involved with.
Style: Slightly Artaudian but influenced by Stanislavski. A bit bonkers, but with characters.
Goal: To actually finish the darn thing!

Hi, I'm Karl. I also did NaNoWriMo for the first time in November. After falling a little behind mid-way through, I eventually won by about 1,200 words and a day to spare! Over Easter I'm planning to do a couple of quick rewrites of my novel and then get the whole thing up on my website, which you can visit at:

OK, now that I've got the plug out of the way, onto Script Frenzy. This will be my first time, and I'm planning to do a couple of radio scripts. In theory, it should be relatively easy for me as I did script writing as part of my degree, including a module specifically on radio scripts that was taught by someone who's had their plays produced for Radio 4. However, in practise, I know that my scripts always seem to come in under length at first, and, at the moment, I only have a vague idea of plots! Oh well, I guess I still have time to think of something more concrete by April...

HI
I did Nanowrimo in November and won, and I'm turning my novel into a screenplay - it's got more legs that way, I think. Very excited. I'm structuring at the moment, and have found How not to write a screenplay to be completely brilliant in giving me practical, strong and clear guidelines on how to write screenplays.

I'm Kate and I won Nano a couple of years ago with a really rubbish load of drivel. I attempted Script Frenzy last year but didn't complete. This time my motto is PLAN PLAN PLAN!!! If I get my freelance work out of the way, I'll be spending Easter weekend doing all kinds of creative stuff including plan plan planning for Script Frenzy.
