Why Do I Write Short Screenplays?

Do I want fame and fortune?  Is it my passion that drives me?  Do I have a story to tell?  Am I wanting to change the world?…

Wow!  Heck No!  Absolutely Not! Never!…

My Screenwriter's Voice

Finding your unique voice as a screenwriter is something that takes time to develop.  Trust the process.  No true growth has ever come about without challenges.  Continue to write, work on your personal development and when you are wanting to quit and do something else… keep going!  Your next script could be a masterpiece.

I'm Never Going To Make It!

We have all had these types of days when our negative thinking gets the best of us.  The key thing to remember is that this is temporary.  Do we really know what tomorrow has in store for us? It is best to nurture ourselves through the challenging times.  No one ever said chasing ones dreams was easy but it beats the alternative.
