December 1st, 2025.
I choose the commitment, and I choose to trust in this seed that has been planted, all this year, and especially during the November Write Club. I resisted, I hesitated, but when I took the plunge…the Universe spoke back. Yes. Yes. Yes. I began, revised, and finished "A Texas Carol", my first soft Christmas/Holiday screenplay, and I got clarity on how to move forward in my two upcoming projects: a comedy screenplay set in Spain, and "The Girls", an action/adventure tv show. In the middle of all of this work, I also attended amazing seminars, and read great blog posts on pitching, meetings, and well…our business of creating.
The momentum is created by the choice to show up, and be the person we are. This choice right now, aligns with the next one, and so on and so forth…that's what I feel happens on the page too.
In a script, a story, it's the same sensation, once we begin to write/type/outline/ink the dream into the page. It's manifesting our power, to choose, and to harness words into actions into movies, tv shows, etc…
December is now a working month for me, and I must say, every month, I know I have work. Screenwriting, script outlining, character development, meeting potential collaborators, preparing for pitches, taking a tea break, the silence in between acts…I am a working artist. I choose it.
So, I've created my slate, my list of working projects, and choose to show up : )
How does December feel for you? What does it mean to feel the momentum, and harness it, put it into our everyday life, even when no one else sees it? How do you organize your vision, projects, into tangible and real projects?

You can, Tony Sterago, or you can finish the script and register it before pitching the project.
