So I'm looking to get a manager... or at least get one to read my stuff. My latest script is a semi-finalist in the Page contest and is a Second Rounder in this year's Austin competition.
Question for those who have way more experience than I do:
Are those contest results enough to mention in a query letter to managers, or should I wait for, hopefully, more?
And should I bother quoting the personal note from Austin? It read:
"Our readers really loved your script! Your story is funny and highly original, displaying a fresh writing voice. Keep up the good work!"
I'm clear-eyed enough to know if they had *really* loved it, it would have made the Austin finals, but the script is still in contention with Page, so there's that.
Anyway, all advice welcomed!
