One of the reasons I enjoy Diablo is because of her forthrightness, and I appreciate knowing that the screenwriter's life will be uneasy and uncomfortable at times and a constant uphill battle. But when you spend years sitting alone, talking aloud to characters in your head, combing over a script a milliion and two times until it's as close to perfect as you can make it, you'd give all the money you have (in my case it can be counted on one hand), to finally hear one "yes." That's why we write.
Great post, K.C. I think many writers will relate. On another note, please conform to our T&C by adding a headshot as soon as possible. We do require all our members to have one. Thanks.

I'm daily motivated by Winston Churchill's advice, 'never, never, never give up!' Success follows persistence, Just be prepared for a long(ish) writing road.

Great post Richard. The interview is original and shows a different perspective compared to the usual filmmaker type interviews I've read in the past.

Glad you enjoyed it, Donna. I agree...A very blunt and honest piece.
