Congratulations!

All the best, and continued success your way!

Yes definitely.

I'm still writing my first draft as well :S But I'm still going to try and get it done, polished and submitted!

I'd like to see what comes out of it first, success stories and the like. Maybe next year.

I have 2 scripts 40 pages in and one I just completed the 1st edit on....lol. I would love to it I can get something completed in time.

Thanks for sharing!

Adding to John's blog entry, I'd say roughly 60-70% of the time, when your agent/manager sends out your script, he won't include a logline in the email cover letter. That's because the agent/manager expects the exec to read the script he's sending you, regardless of the logline. You have a relationship, you each work with pros, and you give each other your time. Typically, the agent/manager would have emailed/called the exec ahead of sending out the script, pitched the premise (using the logline/blurb you've both come up with), and received permission to send it. (Why is permission needed? To prevent infringement. "Sorry I am already working on a similar idea, and I can't read it to prevent infringement.") Sometimes in my experience, when the agent/manager is sending out a spec, a writing sample, a book, etc., he will include a logline with the cover letter. That's where my experience differs from John August's. One reason is that it's easier for the exec to share that script and logline with her colleagues when a logline has already been provided.

Thank you for sharing this Regina!

Fantastic Dylan! Congrats!

Well done mate! Proud of you.

Congrats Dylan! Love to hear about the local talent doing well.

Congratulations and best of luck with Sundial! One of the best emails you can receive is the REQUESTED ones by Joey and his team!

Good luck, Dylan. An agent requested a script of mine, and I plan on pitching another tonight. (Tonight, in Norway, that is - where my wife and I are on musical tour.)

Hi Andre, It sounds like you have many exciting things happening in your career. Should you ever want to do a project with a dark thriller theme, I would be honored to have you look at any of my books. As an Indie Author, I understand all the work involved in getting your work together and out to the public. Best wishes for your continued success, Linda

Hi Linda, It's a good start so far to at least have something completed. Hoping more opportunities present themselves. Dark thrillers are a great genre I'd be happy to look at your books thanks for offering and I wish you continued success as well on your books. Nice accomplishment! Cheers, Andre'

Sounds exciting
