Writers, do you picture a real actor while you write a lead? Or does that box the character in?

The kit I shipped on ScriptLix names a dream cast from your pages. I keep going back and forth on whether that helps a pitch or just gives you something to argue with.

[Adeel @deelbase]

I keep the first read on ScriptLix free, even on weeks I wish it paid the bills.

A stranger reading your pages for the first time is scary enough without a price on it.

1,860+ scripts have gone through it so far. I'd rather that keep growing than charge for the nerve it takes.

My ranking got worse and I'm oddly fine with it 😅

ScriptLix slid to an even 12 on average. People kept coming anyway, 1.34K of them clicked through over that same stretch.

My guess is more of my pages now show up for searches where they land low, which drags the number down.

[Adeel @deelbase]

Writers, when you hear your script read out loud, do you want the voices to act it or read it flat?

I built table reads into ScriptLix and keep going back and forth. Acted sounds better. Flat hides nothing, so a weak line stays weak.

@whitehatmrr naming the problem before the brand is why these ads feel less pushy
