I finished it and sent it off. Ordered a pair of readings too, just to be sure I didn't completely blow it. I'm confident, but right now, I don't have a project that I'm explicitly working on. And I have some that aren't quite good enough, but none of the other projects I'm working on feel...right. But, you'll find that's the theme right now.
I also completed Grand Theft Auto 5 (not as cool as writing, I know). I've been playing it for nearly a year, but I have no feeling of completion. I watched the season finale of Walking Dead, which I was hyped up for, but again, so fucking what? I got what I wanted with all three things, and it doesn't mean that much after I've gotten it. And don't get me wrong, if I sell The Hun script, I'll do a happy dance for days, but I hate having such a lack of direction. My religious war script has issues that I dislike, which makes me think I'll put a ton of work into it and end up with another writing sample. Lot of work for what's effectively a line on a resume. My Greek script feels like it has potential, but it's not there yet. And I get that part of it is to be done on the paper, but I just don't want to spend more time on a script that won't turn out to be a GREAT one. And it sounds like a cop-out. You work until one of them shines. I just want one that shines more brightly than The Hun, and I'm not getting that with my current projects. I have a dozen, easily, but none of them are bright enough, you know?
So right now, I'm like a ship with no anchor and no harbor. Kind of directionless. I really hope this passes quickly. I don't have time for this bullshit.
