Emerging Narrative

I submitted my screenplay Dyre Avenue to the Emerging Narrative section of Independent Film Week on Thursday. It’s billed as an event for “writers and writer/directors seeking producers.” Guess that’s me.

I’ve been frustrated by competitions and contests in the past even when I’ve gotten good feedback. I think you get to a point where you just need to move on and create new work which I’ve done but for some reason I thought I would give this a shot. I’ll probably attend the week as a participant at the Conference like I did last year. It’s a good way to make new connections and catch up with some old ones. It’s like a battery recharge.

If I was going with a selected screenplay this year, well, that’s a whole other story. Maybe it will be the boost I need. Just maybe. Let’s leave it at that.
