1/4 Someone posted something and it made me think. Why do we do this? Spend months, even years writing screenplays that may be read by peers if we& #39;re lucky, could get a read request from the industry if we& #39;re really lucky and for sure there& #39;s no buyer waiting. So why do we write-

screenplays? We clack away on keyboards, trying to put those images in our head on the page. It& #39;s not easy and the world is brutal. The odds are long. Self doubt gremlins crawl around in our noggin. We torture ourselves over contests & fellowships. Agonizing when we hit that-

submit button. So why do we do it. Fame? Fortune? Hell to get paid at all seems impossible some days. For me it& #39;s a choice I made to chase my dreams. To write what stirs my soul and if I& #39;m insanely lucky it leaps off the page and touches a reader emotionally. Everything else-

is gravy. No matter why you write, do it! Believe in yourself and your work. No script is for everybody. Find your audience. You& #39;re a storyteller and the world is a better place because of it. Now go write that batshit crazy thing that no one else can. Hollywood we& #39;re coming. Guy
