Really loved this! Such great screenwriting insights by @NGDWrites and David L. Williams and Jason

I am a writer. I spend months writing 100-page documents nobody asked for. I spend hours researching people to send them to. I spend days bitching over a lack of responses to my queries. I repeat this process, slaving away at it for years. I do this for a good reason. I am crazy

Let me tell you something. I've seen a lot in my time in this business. It's a hard road that people just can't understand unless they're in it. Anyone who's had any level of success knows this. When one of the truly talented & genuinely good guys win? It makes you cry tears...

Writing has no rules; if it's not messy, it's not good

Love the Twilight Zone. Just didn't want to live in it
