I get three more chances to query screenplays, and have the queries read (for those of you not familiar with screenplay queries, you're not guaranteed that cold queries are even looked at in the entertainment industry). And, these are really good opportunities, so I'm excited.

The first is with the production company that almost bought Atonement three and a half years ago, I think it was. Different exec. Maybe I'll try it again. Maybe something new.

The second is with a literary manager who used to be an agent with William Morris!

The third is with Disney and I have an idea I've been sitting on for a while with thoughts of turning it into a YA novel series that I think I'll develop as a screenplay to submit to them instead. Bounced it off my sister and she thinks it would make a perfect screenplay to query to them.

So, Looks like June is going to be a busy month for screenwriting and querying. That'll be exciting. Good way to start the summer!

It's strange, but I have a lot more confidence when it comes to writing and querying screenplays. Maybe because I've had minor success in that arena before?

Thank you!

I have to work on getting my focus back if I'm going to make the most of these opportunities.

Woo-hoo! Go you!

Yes, I think you're right: having minor successes makes one more optimistic. *g*

I see the minor successes like stepping stones. They're easy to learn from and build one's way toward a major success.
