(released
9/4/2005)
By Douglas Lorah
Orlando screenwriter Linda M. Andersson recently had a sitcom pilot "Misery Loves This Company" place in the semi-finals of the Scriptapalooza TV contest. Her pilot also placed as a Finalist in "The Spec Scriptacular" on TVWriter.com.
She also placed her short script "Clothes Minded" in the Top 300 (of 1024 entries worldwide) of the American Gem 4th / The Write Brothers Short Script Competition.
When asked how long she has been writing, this is what Linda had to say:
"I've been writing screenplays for about 2 years. Right before then, I had begun writing a novel and quickly realized that it wasn't the format for me, so I began converting the novel to screenplay format. I've written (3) shorts; (1) sitcom pilot; 2 parts of a 6 part drama mini-series that I'll be marketing to cable; and (1) feature with a co-writer. I currently have a romantic comedy that I'm writing that is in its first draft, and I have various other outlines that I'm working on."
Linda also previously wrote for local and regional music magazines mostly reviewing concerts and interviewing national acts.
