Waiting for October to arrive so I can find out if I won any of the three screenplay competitions I entered (one of which I wrote with a writer friend whose name will be revealed within the next few months), is causing me some anxiety. Especially after I realized some errors I made that I can no longer fix.
One of those errors, and one that I will have to call Scriptapalooza to figure out how to fix for future competitions, occurred three times. Yes, I made the same mistake three times. I could not figure out how to include a cover page without paying an additional fee, so hopefully I'll get that figured out.
In the meantime I'm trying to maintain a positive attitude and I look to situations like this one to help me remain positive:
Paranormal Dating was my blog written for Xomba and it made their front page a couple of days ago, so I was happy about that.
I also read the book, The Magic of Believing by Claude Bristol. If you click the link, it will take you to a page where you can get a free ebook download. Though the reprinted ebook version has LOTS, and by LOTS I mean A LOT of mistakes, the basic truths are so inspiring, I would ask you to ignore the typos.
I would like to personally thank Gail Phelps for reminding about that book in her article, Manifestation Boards for the 21st Century. I had been wanting to read that book for decades. I will read it again and again for inspiration. Thank you, Gail!
