Well, I'll Be Damned

I pitched Mr. Agent II one last, final time ... and he bit hook, line and sinker! Yay! The irony is Mr. Agent I in the same agency already passed on it two years ago. Ssshhh, don't tell anyone! :) It's a second chance on the romcom I had lost hope on. Here's hoping it rises out of the ashes like the Phoenix. See, I'm thinking positive thoughts here. Though, in the back of my head I already know what's going to ... oh, never mind. Positive thoughts. Positive thoughts. So I've re-read it twice and slightly tweeking it before I send it off to the land of Hollywood. I'm still in a state of shock that Mr. Agent II passed on my new horror/thriller, though. I thought for sure this was a high concept idea that he would dig, shop around and make a huge sale with. I know, wishful thinking. It is a cool script, though. Lots of great action. And I had such a blast writing it. I'm debating whether I should submit it to Script Shark for coverage, and if it gets a 'consider' or 'recommend', they will help shop it around. It just cost a big chunk of change, so we'll see.

Meanwhile, Mr. Movie Star's partner emailed back and said he will be in Australia March 25th and to contact him the first week in April to figure out a time to meet. Bummer. So, it looks like my visit to LA will have to wait. Just hope something really good transpires. It will. It must. If anything, I can use this trip to LA to, hopefully, meet the manager repping my horror/thriller, see some friends and maybe look at a few apartments. I need to get my butt out there. NOW!
