It’s so hard for writers to make ... connections, a virtual marketplace is sorely needed. I remember the days of paging through ”The Writers Marketplace” books, printing manuscripts, mailing out envelopes (don’t forget the SASE!), waiting months to hear anything. God, it was horrendous. Unfortunately I think a lot of people are still doing it that way — John, a Storiad Writer member

"Mind Venture Pictures is looking for dynamic stories told by original storytellers who share our cinematic passion for quality filmmaking. And if we find an amazing screenplay through Storiad, there's no question we'd consider making it." — Mind Venture Pictures

“I'm grateful for this site because I think writing might be more solitary than I thought. Sometimes its hard to get feedback on my writing. Also, I find it challenging to get my work in front of the right people. I'm also a musician and graphic designer. There are many avenues online for that but I haven't found much for my writer side. Yes, this is great! I will continue telling my friends about your site.” — A Storiad Writer Member

“It's a great idea as a way to get into the pitch market without middlemen (and of course, most of these writers don’t have the middlemen necessary to get into the process), so it really can create a win-win, especially if we purchase a story or a pitch that we successfully produce. Even if we just option or buy it, it's a success from the writer's point of view. At least a mild one.” — Seismic Films

I want to thank everyone who voted and took the time to read, Peg, which is available here on Storiad in my portfolio. — Kent, writing as Bellakentuky
