i'm stressed. I have so much going on this week it's crazy. I'm furiouslly writing my MTV show script doubting now whether I can even write. I wrote for 4 hours yesterday after my pitch to TBS and athen went to tennis and while trying to perfect my backhand I came to the conclusion that I needed to work much more.
so at 9pm i sat down at my computer and worked for 4 more hours. today i met my friend at Peets coffee to discuss it. Shes not one of those people who is honest so it's hard to know how sh really felt about the script. this is what i've learned about people. She doens't like to get notes or do re-writes on her scripts and she takes notes so personally that sometimes she cries when you says "i dont really know the voice of this character" so as a result, she doesn't give honest notes. Meanwhile, if i read something, i'm like hate it, love it, needs work, dont get, becaues i think getting notes only makes a script better and i welcome them and do not take it personally. If you dont get something u dont get it and chances are other people wont end of story!
so now i'm doing another re-write to send to my friend Alan who will hopefully be more honest. although that s not to say my friend this a.m. wan'st helpful, she def. was.
another thing though is that she says when i ask her to read a script "you better hire me on this," or "you better by me a latte," she always wants payback, meanwhile I read her script a few weeks ago and just read it and didn't demand anything, but she ALWAYS needs to have an agenda, always needs to tell u why she's doing you a favor, always needs to be OWED!
it's annoying
