And I was cool with it. That is, until I got notice that the previous contest deadline of May 1st was extended to May 10th. The notification brought that nauseous feeling in the gut again. I just had to do it. I sat down and put in hours everyday making changes to the project. I was just going to make it the best that I could in the time I had left and let it fly.

What’s the worst that could happen? The contest readers hate it, it gets tossed quick, I’m out $60. It’s still worth the feeling I have right now of accomplishing something I’ve been busting my ass to do.

This morning I feel great. I’m going to put that specific screenplay away for a while and start on a new project today.
