A Home for My Script?
OK, let me be more specific. My pilot script is 27 pages long. Does anyone know where I can host it on the web and then link to it here? I can't just cut and paste it here, and, correct me if I'm wrong, the only files you seem to be able to upload here on Blogger are pics and vids.

Someone suggested Google Docs. I'm gonna check that out.
If you turn it into a .pdf file (Adobe Acrobat Reader) you can read it anywhere that has Adobe installed.
If you can't find something that works then I can create you an ftp account and you can upload whatever you like.
I strongly suggest you check out copyright issues before you host your script anywhere. This is potentially valuable material and you should protect your intellectual property. The basics of copyright law can be found here:

I've been told (but cannot verify) that some hosting services make you give up your ownership rights so please check this carefully before you submit your documents to any third party.
Shouldn't promoting your script be part of the screenwriting class? I've been out of Hollywood a long time, but I am pretty sure they do not get projects from the net...
And what about those who bought the rights?
Only the truly naive would consider for one moment putting a script online. What in the world would be the purpose of doing that? You say you have a production company lined up. If it were a legitimate company, you would have no reason to release to the script to the public. Nor would a legitimate production company want to do business with you. Wow. Wake up, Ellen.
