Sophie is an online sex worker, her parents & friends are not aware of this.. Except her postman & one of her roommates,
It gives a realistic view on the online sex industry (onlyfans etc) whilst also showing how ignorant some men can be when it comes to sex and women in general.
Apologies for errors in formatting I have only started learning it!
This is just the pilot so not all characters or issues have been addressed... this is my second draft which I feel is much improved from my first one!

Also I thought it was contradictory when you make it seem like she started doing this type of sex work du...
You posted this as a TV series. I'm guessing the pilot episode of a half hour comedy. It could work. At the moment it's 14 pages. For television it should be at least 22. For a webseries it's okay. But, it needs work, just to make it passable. There's plenty you can do. But, you're concentrating on dialogue, and it's all wrong. It's either poor exposition or so on the nose, it's dull.
The opening with the postman is rigid. She's explaining wh...
