“Reject the tyranny of picked. Pick yourself.” ― Seth Godin, Poke the Box
Hi. Today I’m going to just talk about how I’m turning my finances around, and I’m going to try to address this subject every now and then keep myself accountable to the extent that’s possible. In any rate I actually turned a profit the first month of this year for the first time in I can’t even remember how long. It’s been a while. Anyway I actually managed to make as of February 4th, $111.56, and that’s net income. That’s after expenses.
Hi, I’m gonna talk a little bit more about screenwriting and producing and their relationship. Uh, yeah, the first thing you need to know, if you’re gonna get into screenwriting is to be serious about it, because if you’re not, you’re gonna wanna give up after the 10th or 20th or 30th version of “No”. And you’re gonna hear a lot of no, or a lot of things like, I don’t understand what you’re saying here. This needs to be clearer. Uh, what? No, this really doesn’t do it for me. Things like that.
Hi! Today, I’m just gonna talk a little bit about what sent me down the screenwriting path. First of all, I took a course back in 2009 in screenwriting and ended up writing a feature film, a draft of a feature film screenplay during that course. It was an online course, and it seemed to be halfway decent at any rate. I submitted it to a contest, Scriptapalooza, and made the quarter-finals, and I was shocked, absolutely shocked.
I found this film video adaptation of the bestselling book, Who Moved My Cheese? on one of my favorite screenwriting blogs. I read the book many years ago, and it’s a parable I particularly enjoy.
I’ll let you decide. 🙂
PS: My thanks to Screenwriting from Iowa for this! 🙂
