I've decided that the people who ask what my scripts are about are a tad silly. If I could explain it to you in a few simple sentences, I wouldn't have needed to write a movie about it, would I have? : P

Arby- Well what about those of us who ask to read the whole thing? : )
Oh, and I just passed 8,500 words! Hooray for progress!
There's some truth here, but as a professor of mine once said: "If you can't describe your script in 30 seconds then maybe you don't really know what it's about either."
Writing the thing is only half the battle. You've got to learn the art of the pitch as well.
I've been writing all my life, but a time comes along when you have to decide whether you're serious about making a passion a craft or not (that time is your last year of college). What follows is a personal history of screenwriting, filmmaking, and - frankly - whatever else I feel like writing about.
