  • Screenwriting Resolutions

    Might be a week early, but I was wondering what others in the DD community resolve to do, not do or accomplish in the New Year? How many specs do you plan to write? Is this your year to get rep'd, sold or produced?

    Hell, how many posts to you resolve to put up?

    Me: This is the year I get rep'd and come out with two more spec features and at least one short. I will produce one of my shorts myself. I'll head to LA at least three times for networking, meetings, etc. As for options or sales, maybe I get lucky with one - not holding my breath. And I'll put up 150 posts.

    In short, I'm hoping to have a successful year and wish the same for all of you as well.

    Happy Holidays!

    Mike

          I'm going to finish this screenplay and make it awesome, then I'll rewrite an old script and make it awesome, then I'll write the script I'm researching and make it awesome.

            My last six new year resolutions have been to sell a script, so I now resolve not to sell a script in 2011.

                Never write again because I'm a tool.

                  I have a 1000 miles goal too, actually. Mine are going to be trail running, though. I want to run a 50 mile trail race in September.

                  As far as screenwriting goes, the last major draft of this script should be done by New Years, leaving the door wide open for writing.

                  So for next year, I want to write two screenplays I'm truly proud of. I also aim to find representation off of the current one.

                    I applied for NYC marathon so I'll find out in April if I need to run more than 20 miles per week. I consider running as my writing time as my mind tends to think of the script while my body is in pain.

                      Does that mean you're going to date actresses from Poland, or that you're going to clean the Hollywood Walk of Fame until it shines?

                          Sounds like nice work if you can get it.

                            I agree. I think I would probably opt to use unrefined coconut oil, and start from the feet and work upward.

                            And if no Polish ones are available, no problem---I'm happy to polish some Czech startlets...

                              That's great! It's always important to give back. Best wishes!
