Jealous! Wish I was checked in too. Currently waiting in the United Club until I can board my flight...

Have a cocktail and relax, Laura...Almost there.

Deleted and banned. Appreciate all those who gave me the heads up!

I-Esha Henderson

I pitched yesterday!! 11 out of 13 request!!

Chris Lilly

I met you and signed up!

Richard "RB" Botto

I-Esha - Congratulations, my friend. Pretty impressive!

Richard "RB" Botto

Chris! Great to see you, brother. Thanks for joining the community. Enjoyed our talk...Think you'll find the water here warm (for all the right reasons)...

Patrick "pH" Hampton

Everyone that was at the GAPF how did you do? Remember its a hard road and a uphill battle trying to get your work seen! I had over 15 requests and 2 hard copies taken!

I-Esha Henderson

The hardest part is to not give up and keep following up with the companies. Just because they don't reply back I always send a reminder email next week. Some even said "keep bugging me." So maybe it's a test of dedication also.

Richard "RB" Botto

Following up is part of the bargain...And part of every screenwriter's job. Gotta be regimented and persistent - without being overbearing, of course.

Karyn Folan

I was there, too! Got six requests out of about 15 pitches. Long lines kept me from doing more. Sorry i didn't meet any of you. Next time!
