I plan to enter a pilot script I've written. I was revising yesterday and decided to start over. This sounds crazy, but I'm still trying to break the story. When I first started learning how to write a spec script, I wanted to just dive in and write the story. Well, you can't do this with original screenplays, especially TV scripts. I had to learn this the hard way.

I'm slowly learning how to produce so I can just work independently and stick to local festivals. Even this is going to take time. I'm trying to be patient, but this is just frustrating.

Wow, that sounds exciting! I'd love to get a glimpse of one of your stories sometime.
