If my script had been bad, I wouldn’t have been invited to Hollywood.
So here I am – Bring it on!

My agent gets ten percent of everything I get, except my headaches.

You are probably wondering what my script is about? It’s about boosting my bank balance…

Finally got the big meeting I had been waiting for! Hopefully we can get this project off the ground.

We’ll see tomorrow….

Seemed to go well with the ‘Big Honcho’ of a very well known studio. They said they’d be in contact shortly.

Still buzzing from this morning’s meeting – spent the afternoon indulging in my first decadent lunch in what seems like years! Was then very naughty and maxed out the card on a beautiful pair of shoes – but I’m celebrating right!!

Ok maybe I got carried away yesterday! Reality starting to hit and dinner last night was my usual fair of a Rye Cracker and soft cheese. Everything literally crossed for good news!

No call yet though!

Checked the phones – called my mobile from the landline and my landline from the mobile and no problem there.

Got a letter: Very nice polite rejection from the assistant of the assistant of the Executive . Can’t even look at the new shoes!

A big party in the Hills tomorrow night and I am lucky enough to be a plus-one – just what I need to forget my woes and back on the networking circuit.

Despite the fact I am scraping by at the grocery store it was too late to return the shoes – but at least they’re perfect for tonight’s party.

Wow – what a night – I felt like a million dollars and met a fantastic film producer who loved the idea of my script. He wants to read it. Tomorrow will send him a script.. Well…who needs agent.

A few days have passed. Got phone call. ”So how did you love my script?”…I asked. ”Well… sorry it is a pass”… was his answer.

I stare at the photograph (of me and my agent) sitting at the bed-side table and for the first time I missed myself !
