Screenplay Strike Two
So, the "Final Draft Big Break" screenwriting contest semi-finalists were announced today. I was not among them. There were 20 chosen from about 3000 entries. Strike two. How many strikes before I say, "I'm out" ? Another blow to my ego. Just like before; I'm sure I'll get over it quickly. Alas. This is pushing me further and further toward finding a way to make the film myself. Maybe that's what I'm meant to do. Hmmm. Still one more contest I intend to enter by the end of the month; and one already entered that won't be announced until early 2007.

Hey-- they chose one screenplay for every ONE HUNDRED FIFTY that they recieved. Please tell me that you're going to keep trying! Perseverance-- Thomas Edison had to try 6,000 different combinations of filaments before his light bulb worked! Sid's Apple just hasn't hit the right contest yet-- or, like you said, you are supposed to make this movie on your own. Things that are supposed to happen, HAPPEN.
Thanks nice lady! I appreciate the encouragement. Know anyone who wants to invest in an independent film? :)
