Dan's Script editing

Morning,

Just got some feedback from Dan for a script. Five pages of succinct, insightful criticism. Forth time Dan's critiqued a script for me and every one has been excellent.

So, if you've got a script and need someone smarter than you to check it out, I highly recommend Dan.

Ah, so now Dan has his own thread, time for me to leap into his!

Send me your scripts.

Ignore Trinder's nice words, it's probs just Dan running a second account. That's what he's like. Don't trust him.

I also edit scripts, infact if Stott's edited your script I am more than happy to edit his feedback.

I also can do your editing in the style of favourite 1980s comics.

It'll be like getting useless feedback from Cannon, Ball and Russ Abbot.

Spelling extra.

Grammar, piss off.

Thanks Neil! (And he has won Sitcom Trials stuff more than once, you know)

And I do not have a goatee! But I do have the same arthritis in my thumbs...

Do you do one act plays?

Traditional sitcom is more my thing, to be honest. But I can have a look if you like. It is a comedy, yeah?

In theory

Fourth.

That'll be three quid.

Lazzard Trinder's sitcoms are all about famous, suspension bridges.

He says it helps SUSPEND THE DISBELIEF!

That'll be 50p for the correction and £3000 for the joke.

See, that's what happens when you don't get Dan to script edit for you. I think it was actually the fifth time as well, but I can't spell fifth.

Another good review, if people are still in doubt :) https://twitter.com/benjaminpmoore/status/413750472759967744

'Those who can't teach gym, offer comedy script-editing services at a competitive rate.' - Me

Matt, Dan & indeed Marc Blake are all talented people. Everyone needs to pay the rent, so I hope you newbies all use their services. Then again, they should all be still working in getting their own stuff produced - in whatever 'media'.

I offer no paid script editing service. But if you send me a script I'll simply give you a yay (or nay) as to whether I think you should keep trying to write. I'm too busy on my own stuff to offer detailed analysis - and, fortunately/annoyingly, I work in a full time job which means I don't have to earn money elsewhere.

I've used script-editing/report services in the past. & it was great. But all it actually confirmed to me was that I could write comedy. They won't turn someone who can't into someone who can. Like everything else in life, to really succeed you have to possess a natural talent/flair.

This is why I'm not a huge porn star. :(

I don't have script editing service, but if you send me cash you'll be a better person.

Good luck to all.
