Kristine:
So I thought it would be nice to have some place to look and dream ... I belong to an info group that is for the media types here in SoCal and every once in a while I get one of these that I think is interesting... Feel free to post any thing/place else you find a writing gig that might pay...

Willing to bet you need to have full polished script to back up your proposal, right? LOL
My 2nd book of my completed 1st book YA is all time travel...but I stopped working on it until someone bites on the first, as in 3/4 rough draft done. Plus I've not idea how to write a script. It's on my to do list, but I think I'd better get the writing novel thing down. Although, one of my classmates in class where I wrote the 1st is married to a Disney producer type.... She like the story, but I'd better find an agent first...
My completed paranormal has only snippets, and I'm sure they want more time travel in it.
Still, I hope someone on this forum goes for it. Keep us posted on future postings?

Willing to bet that you are right Meg.
Re: Script writing. I took a script writing class from D.C.Fontana.
In script writing you strive for showing something rather than saying it and being economical
with your words. Rule of thumb - excluding action scenes - one page equals one minute of screen time.

So scripts are actually shorter to write but far more structured...

You got it, Kristine.
Scripts have a specific layout and there's far less writing than a short story or a novel.
