I'm actually looking in to writing some scripts for a few ideas I've had and pitching them to some networks because I NEED A STORY THAT MEETS MY NEEDS EVEN IF I HAVE TO DO IT MYSELF.
I FULLY SUPPORT THIS PLAN. Hugs, cookies, cheering, beta'ing, kicks in the butt - whatever you need.
Even if it doesn't get "greenlighted" it could be a play, a book; and nowadays making a film is becoming so much cheaper thanks to digital technology.
And thank god for the internet. I'm not sure if folks who have always had it in their lives realize what an amazing tool it can be. My friend Christine introduced me to fanfiction - she wrote Deep Space 9 fanfic that she copied and stapled herself on a mimeograph machine. Which meant that a couple of people got to see it at best.
we NEED to tell our own stories. We can't wait around for others to do it for us.
