Slipping

Sorry, I've slipped a bit. I really had no idea it had been so long since I last posted. I've been consumed with day in and day out survival. Things are still progressing forward. I received a very positive follow-up inquiry from an entity that had requested a copy of my script. The short email said simply that they had read and "really enjoyed" my script and asked if I had other material completed and available. At that moment I did not (egg dripping down my face) but you can believe that is why I am scare and will remain scare for a minute here! I've got some very good strong works-in-progress and I'm driving them straight to the finish line as we speak.

Keep the positive thoughts coming my way please!
Thanx!!!

Serious Thought

I've become quite prolific lately. I know I have to strike this iron while it is hot! I'm writing non-stop. Kicking out and posting a new screenplay short, in the middle of a new romantic comedy (screenplay), awaiting word on another fiction project (this one a joint effort) that attracted an agent's attention and putting the finishing touches on projects slated for release early this year.

I'm thinking of doing something that ordinarily I would not consider, but, I'm sort of following my "gut" on this one. A quite credit worthy producer approached me about analysis and evaluation of a particular script. No promises, no guarantees, but just fair analysis and evaluation. I've just about decided to do this to get this script either on the dime or have a good idea of why it has been missing the ultimate "mark!"

What sets this individual apart is that I see where he is actively optioning and/or purchasing scripts of emerging screenwriters on an ongoing basis. It appears that if you have something to work with he will defintely give it some energy.

I planned to make a final move on that today, but we have an ice storm brewing and travel on our highways is not advised. I'll see where I am on this at the end of the day.

Whoa Ho!

Now this is interesting! My book of poetry just showed up as ranking 191,719 in Sales on Amazon! That is a Quantum Leap from where it was less than a week ago -- and believe me, when I say quantum I do mean quantum! I wonder what is driving this upturn! Now that may not seem like such great numbers to you (LOL) but just ask a hand full of strugggggggggggling writers. They'll assure you I have reason to dance this happy dance of the moment.

I'm thankful no matter what!
