What have you done the past 10 days in terms of actual screenwriting?
We talk a lot of craft and business and everything -- but we rarely just share what the real versions of us are doing off this board.
Because I hope after all the posts and threads -- we are all writing or querying or reading scripts -- not just talking about a business we aren't doing.
A pro writer friend of mine told me once -- I'm not a better writer than you -- I just write more than you do and consistently. In other words a pro isn't just someone that gets paid to do it. They do the work always not just once in a blue moon. It was great advice.
BONO 10 DAYS RECAP
-- I wrote a TV pilot in 7 days or so. It came to me, it came out of me.
-- I'm rewriting my feature spec with my rep for the 3rd or 4th time now. But it keeps getting better. Dialogue pass.
-- I read a new friend's script and gave notes. She's super talented, glad to have met her.
-- Been emailing a few friends going back and forth on giving thoughts on their ideas.
-- Pitching new ideas to write to rep and others.
