Screenwriting : Back in the Game by Bill Albert

Back in the Game

I took a break for a few months from everything to try and regain my senses. I won some festivals last year and despite some good experiences I kept frustrated feeling like I was in limbo. It seemed like I was always so close to making he jump to pro but it just wasn't happening. It was taking it's toll on me so I just let it go for a while. I worked on ideas, wrote some bits and pieces, but really stayed out of things since November.

Got my first pitch lined up in a few hours. Have to admit I'm a bit nervous about it. Worried I'm a bit out of practice.

I have a big interview with a producer on Tuesday. I was really holding back on the more intense consultations for a while but this producer's really fit a scripts I've got. Thought about it a lot and finally decided to set it up. Also spent 3 1/2 hours going over every single word, ended up adding about 4 pages of script, before uploading it. Here goes.

Any fingers crossed would be greatly appreciated.

Break a leg Bill!

What Effie said. Also, sometimes taking a little break is exactly what you need to find your motivation again.
