First off, a tip-of-the-hat to criticism: I gave the first draft of my screenplay to a professional script reader a couple of weeks ago. He thought the story was marvelous but the execution was severely flawed.

I just finished, and holy Lord, it’s about ten times better than the first. So I’m very excited about where this is going. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll remember you read about it first on Slope.
