My Work Is Not Appreciated


You ever get to that stage on your script where people just don’t seem to appreciate what you’ve done? It’s past the stage where you’ve pitched your friends and family and all agree that it’s the best idea you’ve ever had. But it’s just before the stage where you can shove a stack of pages under their noses and say "Read this, it’s fabulous."


You’re at that stage where the actions in the story are dependant on your characters. Those weird, off the wall characters that you’ve so recently become enamored with. So, when you tell the same friends and family, that were so supportive a week or two before "then the electrified tuba player tries to put camouflage pants on the monkey" and all you hear is crickets. You’re at that stage.
I'm at that stage.
