Long story cut way short....A very well established Production Company in LA has requested one of my scripts. They specialize in made for TV films & I queried them yesterday morning regarding a new one called The Shoebox.
The Founder of the company e-mailed me back yesterday afternoon with a "release form" & asked for patience because she's really swamped at the moment but definitely wants to read it.
It's my first query and first time ever getting past any kind of gatekeeper...Still a lot of rejections & patience coming up, but there's only one first time, so, um....WHOOO HOOO!!!!
& Niteshift? Please feel free not to dawdle:-), Kinkos & the Post Office are waiting.

Hey Bob,
This GREAT news. So happy for you. But, all that said, Christine is still much prettier! Best of luck!

Yeah, I think we should all stick to the appropriate side of the camera lens:-)...What I gotta do now is write one with a starring role for Christine so that I'll have an "in" when she hits the big time. Might as well take advantage of this "We're all in this together" Thang!

Thanks Brian & Stan et al...The BEST part, is that the passion for creating something is back...It had slipped away for a bit, but now, creating something for its own sake is reward enough. Dirty word the rejection letters, writing is fun again! Midnite Congrats Bob... looking forward to reading your work.
