Forget the last post. From now on, I'm going to chronicle my adventures of a wannabe wealthy man.
The latest manifestation of my urge for financial security and independence involves writing a screenplay. What's it about? Well for approximately $500,000 I'll tell you. But, until then, nobody knows but me. My first draft is almost done, so I'd say I'm about two years away from getting it into shape for any possibility of sale. But lets not be too optimistic. The writing will be the easy part, its getting it into the hands of the right people that may be difficult.
Has anybody ever paid an agent in manual labor? That's about all I can afford as of now.
Wouldn't it be great if there was a way to get one's work right into the hands of the right people, if it wasn't all about having connections? Well, I say that now, but if I had any connections, my tune may change.
Hopefully one day that'll be the case.
Now it is time to write.
Put my mind to it, finish the rough draft, and really get into it.
Seriously. Imma get serious.
