>> If you are doing CCs to generate income, what are some of the suggested screens/criteria to select stocks for writing calls?

A large number of us are writing against long term positions, which were selected through fundamental analysis. Covered calls are described as a neutral to bullish strategy. At a minimum you should select an underlying equity that you feel comfortable holding over the period until expiry.

We've had a number of discussions about this which you might find interesting. I'd suggest you review the archive of posts to get some background.
