Dear Frodomaster,
I'd like to know what sort of anti-virus program you run and if you can update it and run a scan just before sending your script to me. Will it be as an attachment or can you paste it to the body of an email?
Thank you,
JB :)

Dear frodomaster,
We can work out sending your screenplay to me via email conversations so be sure to check your email first.
I wanted to add a couple of sites for you where you can find information about screenplays.
1.There are an enormous number of links, some specifically for screenplays, at http://www.bloorstreet.com.
2. There are articles about screenplays at http://www.exis.net/story/masterlink Screenplays are treated similarly to novels, but the pitch for them must be much shorter and quicker than the proposal for a novel.
Yours,
JB:-)

Dear Dave,
You're asking me to use memory and do work for you free. That's not so bad, but you could at least have rated this answer one of the times you came back to AnswerWay after I replied. You could rate it now, as long as you're here, anyway.
Yours,
JB :)

Dear Dave,
I tried to email this morning(Feb.2nd), but got STMP error messages saying some server had rejected your address. I was trying to tell you to subscribe free to Sue Kendrick's newsletter,The Write Link, at http://www.writelink.co.uk. Sue is very bright, is in the UK and may even allow you to link your screenplay site with hers when you are ready.
She can give you much advice about screenwriting, offer you free Ebooks about it andThe Writlink is always full of markets. After you subscribe, I'm sure she'll help you with your screenplays. If you have any particular story problems with any of them, I'd be happy to help you here in my Fiction Writing category. You may yet receive the emails I sent you and copied Sue on. I don't know what's going on with the error messages I received, but I can't send anyore emails because my PC wants to try to send the first one I wrote to you along with them and it creates a STMP error. I can't risk opening any attachments so don't bother sending me any.
You might want to check your email account settings because I brlieve that trying to email you has prevented me from emailing anyone since every new email I try to send is attempted to be sent along with the first one I tried to sendyou and now there are4 that won't go anywhere.
Yours,
JB :)

Hi JB OK i will send it you, but the language in it is quite bad it's kinda a teen comedy i.e. like American Pie but not as dumb.
Anyway that was a pretty crappy description but if your OK with that or want me to email you any extracts get back to me

DearDave,
Do Not send me Anything! I don't know if hotmail has fixed its problem or not. Subscribe to The Writelink at http://www.writelink.co.uk and join a writers group. You might find one to critique your script at http://www.coffeehouseforwriters.com. Click onthe "MakeFriends" link. I'll try to be in the chat room there on Saturdays at1 P.M. Eastern U.S. time.
Sue Kendrick, who puts out The Writelink, may be able to direct you to comedy directors/producers like BGE, Carsey-Werner, Tom Cherones and others. Directors have total control over the implementation of scripts once bought by producers andifthey like your script may bring it to theattention ofaproducer.
I was just notified of a follow-up by you, but don't know where to find it so I'm adding this
Yours,
JB :)

Dear Dave,
I still can't email you or receive any from you since there seems to be a problem with Hotmail between here and where you are.
I just wanted to see if you've subscribed free to The Writelink writer'snewsletter from http://www.writelink.co.uk yet. Su Kendrick, its editor, can help you polish your scripts and find markets for them. She may even pay you to publish them on one of her sister sites and she only buys first Erights and lets you retain all others or will reassign them to you after just a few months. Sue's even in the same country you're in and knows the market there very well. Please don't email me. I've got enough PC problems as it is, butif you have another story development question, don't hesitate to ask me directly at my Fiction Writing Profile page.
Yours,
JB :)
