Week 444: - Screenplay Free Kinda Sorta - Retirement Tour

Weekly Written Review 

This week I got some feedback about my screenplay from two great people. The same screenplay I've been rereading and rewriting since around February 2nd. Next, I corrected the typos and added an additional scene inspired by one of the readers. On Wednesday, I got awarded a 30-page table read scholarship. That same night I did some independent research and found out about diversity scholarship for up and coming writers. I thought I was about to be free from my screenplay but I was actually setting myself up for more screenplay momentum. I also decided while my writing powers are heightened I need to keep writing. I developed a TV show idea last year and now is a good time to gear up and write the actual pilot episode. Writing a short film won't hurt either. When I start submitting my screenplay to various contests, it doesn't hurt to have a few other scripts ready to go. I'm not situated yet to start writing more but at least I made the decision to. I jampacked my week with small accomplishments and prepared myself to escort someone I met in Florida years-ago around the city of LA for 3 days. I had the pleasure of showing the lovely Jen (with one n) the city of LA for 3 days. This was my 3rd time playing tour guide since I relocated here. The last time was in October and the first time was in 2012). It's always an honor to serve and assist people from my past. Especially the ones that have helped me out along the way. There was were some cool moments in Tour Guide 3.0. At the same time, I think it's in my best interest to retire from being a tour guide. When I evaluate all 3 experiences, I noticed it's a bit challenging to sync energies with people from the outside world. There are probably several different reasons that may contribute to this challenge but it's nothing one party can fix. Time and understanding would help but who takes a vacation and puts time and understanding on their to-do list? It's not like there's a herd of people trying to visit me anyway. If there was, I wouldn't be able to handle it because I'm a true-hearted loner. I'm reminded of my natural state whenever I take duties outside of it.
