Screenplays in the Closet

So far I've met three people who moved to L.A. to become screenwriters. One (a lawyer) gave up completely after his first year in L.A., the other (a teacher) has a closetful of screenplays that he still hopes to sell after he gets a book published, and the third is still plugging away, finishing up a screenplay while he works in the entertainment industry.

So it's true, lots of screenplays in the closet here.

In other aspirant news, I ran into my aspiring actress friend J., the Brit, on the street the other day. She was eating outside at Toast. After receiving the two parking tickets, she was involved in a car accident that totalled the used car she had just bought. Poor thing! Getting in a car accident here is my biggest fear...
