In an interview, veteran writer/producer Robert Moresco shares his insights about his past projects and why he's a writer. "Know that there’s no golden rule. There’s no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. There’s only the journey. And if the writer’s journey is for you, you’ll know it. You’ll know it because you won’t quit.

This quote resonates with me: We all think we’re worthless. Who knows why? Maybe it’s because we’re putting our souls on the line for other people to judge. But the commitment to the next scene, the next page, the next piece of dialogue, that’s what writers do. We go and live in our own world and we stay in that world until something comes. And that something is the beginning." Though I try to spend very little time feeling bad about myself, I do understand that when someone rejects what we do, or says "we have it wrong" that it can be disheartening. However, I also subscribe to the philosophy of writing because it's in your soul and there's no other option for you.

Even if a writer quits, that's only a part of the story...around page 80, right?
