What do you think?? (forgive me if I posted this before)
"Autograph" (c)2007 by Dave Gill
Open on a sports hero. hounded by fans and media. flash bulbs and yelling and signings and chaos...
Change view to a young boy. He walks up to the door of a house and on the door is a sign that reads "No autographs." The boy turns around and walks away.
Change to chaotic scene of interview with sports hero and him at the airport, getting on the plane.
Change to scene of same little boy and his mother at a HallMark store. He asks if his mother will buy him a card for a special friend. She agrees. The boy picks one out.
Change back to the sports hero walking toward his home. He enters and closes the front door.
<zoom in on sign>
"No autographs" ...
Cut to the little boy walking up to the sports hero's house...
he stops..
reaches into his pocket and pulls out the Hallmark card and a pencil...
The boy sits down on the stoop and writes something down..
The little boy stands up and rings the doorbell
the sports hero opens the door..
He sees the boy and says.. "Look kid, really. No autographs today"
The kid hands the card to him and says "Yes sir, I know..."
The sports hero opens the card and it reads "Love, Billy"
The boy says.. "Since you were out of autographs I thought maybe you could use one of mine."
The sports hero says "Thanks, kid. Wait right here." and heads back inside for a moment.
He comes back to the door and hands the boy a jersey and says "Thanks."

Pitch it to whom? I sent it to Hallmark already and was blocked by the "We are not allowed to accept unsolicited material" and then it went on to explain how they have a "crack" team of writers for this sort of thing but thanks for trying, followed by a paragraph or two of disclaimers and legal jargon....
If you know of someone please let me know....
And Thank you so much for the response. You made my day, Lynn..
