One of the best things about maintaining an online presence is hearing from people from different parts of the world who are passionate about writing.
Here’s an example of a wonderful note I received from a writer living in Namibia. It’s a terrific reminder that there are opportunities for writers everywhere, not just in Hollywood, and we should never take the resources available to us for granted.
I am from Africa and had a passion for writing ever since I was 12 but in this life that’s not the only thing you need to prosper. I write movies or would love to write a movie though I don’t even know how a real movie script looks like. I do however have a few roughly written movies. I wish one day God would answer my prayers and make me the best movie script writer/actress. However I just wanted to let you know that what you are doing is great, helping others like me so thanks.

NOTE: For people in a similar situation to Jennifer, I recommend checking out sites like the Internet Movie Script Database (www.IMSDB.com) that regularly post samples of produced screenplays.
