Screenwriting has always been my first love, so I applaud you for sticking with your script and getting it in front of the BBC! That is a huge deal, and something to be proud of! 🙂

My first attempts at writing were a novel in about 1990 which I abandoned because I decided my vocabulary wasn’t varied enough. I decided to try scripts. Eventually after rejecting numerous idea’s because they wouldn’t win me an Oscar. By 2001, I decided to just write the kind of thing I enjoy – which truth be told is a bit of a chic flic. I had a reasonable job so paid an LA script analyst to critique it. He said “don’t give up the day job!” It was too wordy, etc etc. However with his help I went through two more versions and eventually it meet with the approval of numerous people in the BBC – it wasn’t made – but at least they liked it! I came to look forward to people’s feedback as I know it helped me grow. I’m looking forward to reading the rest of your blog todate!
