Man, I love these. So inspiring. Sometimes it's difficult to swallow the odds of this goal we're all trying to achieve. All too often we're fed the inconceivably disparate fraction that represents our chances of making it in the industry. That's why these are so incredibly useful -- they're real-life documented cases of those who've obtained the goal, who've been through the fire and come out the other side with elixir in hand. These are actual real human beings who can testify that the goal we're all chasing actually exists. Writers need that from time to time... This particular story, however, is quite fascinating to me. I think it corroborates the notion that a lot of times pure talent prevails over everything. I mean, I've never heard of someone deciding they want to write, then a few months later writing a script that goes on to win such prestigious honors. That's absolutely freaking amazing. There's people that spend decades of their lives attempting to perfect the craft and still don't get the breakthrough they're after. Stephanie must really have a gift. I can definitely relate to a motif of her interview, that being the idea of not ever feeling ready to actually sit down and write a full-length script. I always feel, no matter how many movies I see, no matter how many words I type, no matter how many scripts I read, interviews I watch, notes I scribble, that I'm missing something. I have this incessant paranoia that I still haven't done enough, that I could still learn more. But hey, it obviously paid off for Stephanie so maybe there's something to chronic procrastination syndrome. I guess the only way to find out is to sit down and write... one day.
