Sent “Death Rides Shotgun” to “your-insider.com”

Well I just finished a rewrite on the first draft yesterday and I’ve already found a new place to try it out on, www.your-insider.com. I read about it in the new “Creative Screenwriting” magazine I picked up at Borders last night.

Why did I choose to spend $77(it’s actually $87 up from $57 at premiere but if you mention “creative screenwriting” you get a ten dollar discount.) on this new outlet? First if he likes the script, he’ll try to front it through his connections. Yeah, we’ve all heard this, but there has got to be some people who can do this right? Or else we’d all walk around with negative thoughts and not show or promote our scripts. What I really like though is he said he will give notes depending on what the script needs. If it needs 2 pages or if it needs 10 pages it will receive it. I will keep you posted and look forward to reviewing this new service.

    Hi
    Glad to see someone else has gone the same route – exactly, right down to the shopping trip to Borders!
    Michael seems a good guy – am waiting for his comments on my script as I type – did you get a reply yet? I’d be interested in what he said – good luck with the script!

    As a matter of fact I got my notes last night and did a quick read. While I feel he obviously put a lot more effort into the read then most notes I’ve gotten, I will have to, (Like him), re-read them and make a post on my thoughts. One thing I did notice though was lack of a synopsis or a log line which I’ve gotten with all other notes no matter how lame or stripped down it is. I’ve mentioned this to him and I’m currently awaiting a response.
    But yeah so far he seems to be full of energy and ambition. Let’s hope he can keep it up, because let’s face it, this market is too crowded with jaded people who act as though the would rather be doing anything else.
