I started writing a new script yesterday which felt really good. A script request caught my eye and I have a story I think fits what they're looking for. I even have a deadline and that made me feel even better and that's probably tied to my old life that had tons of deadlines. I also sent out another script that a lot of people liked. It was a relief to bring everything back to normal. Back to the, I write and I wait, life. That's my normal.
This morning, I read an interview of a very successful screenwriter. It was a great read but it made my stomach churn. My ideal world is I write, I sell, I write more that's easier to get considered reads to sell and on and on it goes. I don't want another office job and he made it seem like that's part of this path.
I'm still waiting for final decisions and no one has passed on that script. That crazy reality put the brakes on my writing endeavor for longer then I care to admit to. I'm glad to get back to my norm or at least close to it. I don't want an office job but the reality is, I hope I get to find out how it really goes. I'm ready for anything and either way I'm sure it's a wild ride.
