The news hit hard. Kiss of the Black Forest aka Legend of Black Lotus did not make it to the quarterfinalssemifinals of the Scriptapalooza Screenwriting Contest. Time to pull myself up by the bootstraps and get busy. At the time we were eight and 3/4 months into 2014 and there wasn’t much time left to get things done. I decided that something had to happen in Q4. Forget about anything and everyone else who couldn’t or wouldn’t see my aspirations or vision — something had to happen.
I was spread pretty thin: screenwriting contests. Prepping TV pitches. Getting ready to launch a feature film project.
