Scott, did you have an agent prior to selling your spec? Maybe you might post a story on your process -- from your initial idea... the time it took to write -- where you wrote -- trying to get read -- and eventually selling, etc.

I'm sure everyone here would love the personal anecdote.

Best,

RC

Ryan, the short answer to question re an agent is no -- and yes. The script actually 'sold' two times. I guess it is pretty interesting, so I'll post the saga of K-9 soon.

Cool, looking forward to it. Breaking in stories are where it's at in terms of fellow writer interest. Bottom line is always "I wrote a sell-able script." But the unique circumstances surrounding the sale are so inspiring...

How big is the risk that a production company does not produce a spec script that they have bought?

Not that I would mind a load of money, but I do want them to produce it rather than make me rich.

Forget the historical perspective. 1990 was almost 20 years ago? How did that happen?

Lee,

That was exactly what I was thinking!
