Why Do I Write Short Screenplays?
Do I want fame and fortune? Is it my passion that drives me? Do I have a story to tell? Am I wanting to change the world?…
We all write movies for one reason or another. One big question to ask ourselves is… Would I write screenplays even if I never got paid?
Wow! Heck No! Absolutely Not! Never!…
One key thing to pay attention to here is one's response to the money aspect. If the almighty dollar is your major drive, then maybe it's time to rethink your journey down screenwriting row.
The essential conditions of everything you do must be choice, love, passion.
-- Nadia Boulanger

I'm Never Going To Make It!
We have all had these types of days when our negative thinking gets the best of us. The key thing to remember is that this is temporary. Do we really know what tomorrow has in store for us? It is best to nurture ourselves through the challenging times. No one ever said chasing ones dreams was easy but it beats the alternative.
