NEW: @Emily_S_Cooper on making a go of things as a writer.
“As far as I can tell you either get used to it, or you don’t – and it chews you up. I have learned to send out applications and then forget about them… Rejection becomes background noise.”

Me, verbatim after my short film is rejected from any festival:

[Filmmaker Magazine @FilmmakerMag]

“…the U.S. A-list film festival circuit… is now mostly a self-reflexive bourgeois echo chamber of sanctimonious gatekeepers serving corporate interests and neoliberal logics.” Sophia Haid and Keisha Knight of @ArtSentient from our print issue. https://t.co/hrpUSY3pP1

@ClaireMMcCabe @Screendaily Great news! Congrats 🎉
