Sketch swap/collaboration?

I have a few incomplete sketches which I have kinda ground to halt on. I'm guessing there may some others on this site who may be in a similar situation and could do with a fresh pair of eyes and some new ideas for their work.

With this in mind, would anyone like to swap a couple of unfinished sketches and maybe exchange some ideas for how they could be finished/improved?

I should say that the kind of stuff I write isn't topical nor is it very dark or confrontational (though I don't have a problem with a tactical deployment of fruity language) so if your sketches are in this territory I'm afraid I may not be of much use to you.

Obviously significant contributions should be reflected in the writing credits.

If this is something you think might interest you then why not PM me.

Cheers

Bo.

Yeah I'm up for this. I was going to make the suggestion myself after Mark from Treason noticed the drop-off in submissions that he was going to have to do something about. I suspect the reason for most people is the same as for me - 118jokes. I can write 50+ jokes in the time it takes me to do a song for the same money but I still want to write for a sketch show so I want collaborators.

Bohannon I'm not going to be sending any sketches out for a week or two but I'll still look at yours if you like.

I don't have any sketches to swap. But I don't mind adding my two cents to some unfinished scripts.

Be delighted to, but can't help feeling this counts me out.....

I think he added that specifically to count you out. ;)

I'll have a look if you like, Bo'.

PM me if you want me too.

Many thanks for the your interest, guys, it's very much appreciated.

I was ideally hoping for a reciprocal thing but I completely understand why someone mightn't want to show their stuff to a complete stranger.

I'll be in touch where appropriate.

Cheers again,

Bo.

Not sure I have any sketches that are exactly unfinished, but I have a fair few that do not work; whether they are fixable I doubt.

At any rate, I like the solving problems, so happy to take a look at stuff.
