Screenwriting : That first paycheck.... by Lisa Clemens

For those who did earn something (anything!) by screenwriting, what did you do with your first earnings? Most of mine went into the bank but I did treat myself to a MacBook and a Dyson vacuum I'd had my eye on! Oh and my husband wasn't sure what to think of my relatively new chosen career (I only started in 2009 and got paid early 2012) until he was looking at the paper and saw his fave team, the Mets were playing up in Toronto. "What a shame we can't go..." I reminded him of the check we just put in the bank... So after the family trip overnight in in Canada he was a little more into my work, haha. If you have not earned yet, what would you like to treat yourself to?
