Screenwriting survival tip for today…
Accept a dose of reality. The key is finding the right home for your material.
It can take time… sometimes years. My spec that sold took 4 years to find the right producer —and then 3 more years to get produced.
Nothing ventured nothing gained. Don't let the fear of failing or losing stop you from trying. You have only one life to live. Don't leave anything in the gas tank. Write it. Pitch it. Enter it. Submit it. Give it your all, right here, right now.
I am so grateful and excited that @NetworkISA chose my script THE FETCHER FLETCHER BARNES as a top 25 reads for this fall! Thank you so much!! #screenwriting#screenwriters
This script is based off my original IP, book for kids.

@BenJohnson2018@WritersGuild_SA@realKurtEllis You’re welcome. All is good here. I hope all is well with you and your family! I finished two spec scripts, working on a third. Still looking to sell one. 😀
The world may break us, but afterward many are stronger at the broken places.”—Hemingway
Face down criticism, reaction, and failure. All writers experience it on this screenwriting journey.
Do not allow any setback to derail your splendid plans. Keep the faith & keep growing.
