It's been over three weeks since I wrote a decent bit of dialogue. Never mind a joke that was funny. I need to... do something. Everything I write winds up sounding vaguely like a dry speech on the furnishings in the Lincoln bedroom. And that's not the way into a producer's heart ( Read more... )

Thank you. I've been trying for weeks to get that information out of him, with absolutely no luck.

The way into a producer's heart is knowing the closest person to the producer's heart and having your assistant give that person's assistant a call. Talent helps, though.

He doesn't like to admit to his age. I think he's afraid people won't believe him or won't take him seriously.

The way into the hearts of the producers I've met is sex or a fabulous screenplay. Preferably both. I'm not willing to do the first and the second has been a bit of an issue lately.

Perhaps.

I get the distinct feeling you're not giving yourself enough credit.

That's... thank you, Mandy.

Sigh. Thank you, Els. (You know, loose lips sink ships.)

You're being too hard on yourself, as usual. You want me to look anything over? I have a feeling I'll have a different opinion of your work.

Oh, like no one would have figured it out on their own eventually? I just charted the ship's course a little more closely.

WOuld you? I could really use the help because everything I write lately that isn't related to work sounds like crap.
