Dreams on Spec

I found a wonderful article that was perfect for the screenwriting blog but because it has examples of great stories about perserverance and triumph for whatever your dream is, I've decided to include it here. This is more evidence to never give up on your dreams! Ever! Peace, Love and Happiness, N. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dreams on Spec By Daniel Snyder I was sitting in a well-furnished office on the 20th Century Fox lot, asking James L. Brooks (“Terms of Endearment,” “As Good as It Gets,” “Broadcast News”) about the art and craft of screenwriting. “I never knew anybody,” he was saying, “who ever got a Writers Guild card who didn’t have a hard time when somebody said, ‘What do you do for a living?’ saying, ‘I’m a writer.’ Your voice always catches on ‘a writer,’” Brooks said. “From the earliest stages, it’s what your secret thought was that you wanted to be and what of course you knew was impossible to be.” Brooks was
