Hello faithful readers, if there are any of you left. I have returned from my far too long hiatus. I do bring good news though which I will dispense... now.
I have finished four screenplays and am currently working on a fifth! I plan to take the next two months rigorously pumping out draft after draft and hope to have them all in pretty decent shape come the end of the year.
I have lists of agents, production companies, and festivals and will be mailing them out next year. I will make a new post later with more details on how I developed the lists and include books and websites that are very helpful.
As far as my writing goes, it has become SO much stronger by reading screenwriting books, listening to a certain podcast (see below), reading great screenplays, and writing every single day. It's been a long hard couple of months, but well worth it and with a little luck, the payoff will continue next year.
The podcast which I was refering to is called 'On The Page' and it is very helpful as well as entertaining. I have been listening to it for about a year and I highly recomend it. It is put on by a Script Consultant in L.A. and she has all sorts of guests on that talk about different aspects of the industry, but specifically focuses on screenwriters. Below you'll find the link to her website where you can hear the podcast or you can simply type 'On The Page' into itunes. Enjoy and Happy writing!

P.S. I will post more often so stay tuned!
