I recently discovered my old journals from 2008. At that time, I was feeling completely defeated after my script was rejected from the Sundance Screenwriters Lab. I wrote, "I keep praying for a miracle - but it never comes."

But here's the incredible part - just 16 months after writing that journal entry, not only had I made my film, but it was accepted into the Sundance Film Festival where it went on to win two awards!

In this episode, I dive into what created that "miracle": perseverance, keeping faith, and most importantly - taking control of your own destiny as a screenwriter. 

Waiting for permission or for someone else to choose your script isn't the only path forward. Sometimes you have to become the person who makes it happen.

The miracle IS coming - but only if you stay committed to your path unconditionally. Not just when you're getting validation or when things are working out, but even on the hard days when it feels impossible.

Remember: You have the power to get your script on screen.

 The question is - are you ready to claim it?
