I’m off enjoying the holidays, but I wanted to say a brief thank you to everyone who has supported the site over the year. Particular thanks to Pia, Bert and Sean without whom the discussion board would not exist. Thank you to everyone who has run a challenge and commented on a script. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the screenwriting community. There are too many people to name so I will not try.
It has been a banner year for members getting work optioned and produced. By my best rough count, there have been over a hundred scripts optioned as a result of being on the site. This says more about us as a community helping each other out than it does about the site itself. The community is not the site, but the people who contribute to it.
Also, since the advertising on the site has been more than enough to cover hosting and bandwidth, we’ve been able to donate roughly $800 over the course of the year to film projects and writing labs.
Best wishes of the season to all, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
– Don

@silvano anselmo If by just uploaded, you mean after the 18th December. Then you probably won’t find it on here yet. All the originals scripts are uploaded together on Sunday (The last upload was Monday, because of Christmas). If you uploaded it before 18th December, it should be in the unproduced section at the top of the page.

Thanks, Dean.
Silvano, Dean is correct. It hasn’t been posted, yet. It can take a week to ten days before scripts are posted to the site. You can review the FAQs here: http://www.simplyscripts.com/submit_your_script_faqs.html which has more info on what to expect.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
