I'm kind of scared here.
My dad just got back from California today and he says that this guy really does talk to Steven Spielberg, and when him and his wife get my script/site, they will be showing it to anyone they think will want to do something with it. Hearing about this stuff beforehand through my mom, it didn't sound quite as huge a deal, but my dad keeps saying that it is and it's all about connections and we have one now and I need to show them my work. I tried to say "heheh, it would be a total waste of Steven Spielberg's time if it got sent to him."
I really don't know how big a deal this is. Nothing has happened yet, I still need to fix the script. But now I'm completely questioning all the hard work I did, because I did it for me, and Kate, and my friends in mind. Not real, important directors. I don't believe in myself yet. I'm just 20 years old. I just have a bunch of incomplete projects, so many things that need countless revisions just as they are, and Crystal Palace 2.... I'm worried that the beginning parts aren't grabbing enough. It's the kind of script where it keeps getting better but the beginning is just so-so. And I don't know if you will be able to see right away that all of the cliche-ness and this-doesn't-make-any-sense is intended for parody. And I also don't know if it's readily obvious that its fanfiction roots can be abolished and it just had started as fanfiction. *sigh*
I had stable ground as a nobody with this stuff. Now everything is wobbling!
Edit: Can I ask one or two people to read this and be my beta? I need a fast reader, though... I don't want to keep this guy waiting.
