Re: Doing well in too many contests is a red flag for reps?
For our own sanity I think it's always important to remind ourselves how wildly subjective this business is.
I once entered a script into a big TV Network writing program. Didn't even progress past the first round. A month later that same sample got me a job interview because the producer really liked that piece of writing. And more recently, a pilot of mine found its way into the hands of a manager at a big company. He HATED it. A week later that same script got me a meeting with an agent.
Point is, what one person hates another might love. And I think all we can do is put blinders on and just keep writing to the best of our abilities.
