TIP OF THE DAY As a screenwriter, you will most likely have many deals fall through. And a lot of those deals will get very close to becoming real just before they fall through. And this will happen more often than getting a project produced. Embrace it, it's all part of it.

The only way to survive the inevitable heartbreak of being a screenwriter, I have found, is to variegate your workload. Having a variety of projects in various stages of dev. makes it much less crushing when one (read: most of them) falls apart. You mourn, then happily move on.

5 LESSONS I’VE LEARNED: 1. It’s okay to celebrate other writers’ successes. 2. There’ll always be ppl more talented than me, & that’s okay. 3. Not everyone will❤️my writing, & that’s okay. 4. Being nice takes you far. 5. Hard work trumps talent. Morning #WritingCommunity.

We have words for writers who are working professionals. Copywriter. Screenwriter. Author. Journalist. Lyricist. Columnist. Essayist. Critic. You don't need to be paid to consider yourself a writer. If you write, you are a writer. Don't let anyone else tell you different.

Screenwriting tip: even for features, learn to outline! When you go in and pitch for an open writing assignment, you’re going to have to outline the story so then you can create a good, well thought out pitch. ❤️

I have written 20 scripts professionally. 3 have them have, to writ, become movies. And I'm considered to be doing well. This is hard for all of us. There is no shame in failing, only in giving up. Just. Keep. Writing.
