So Much Work
Honestly, you non-board members have no clue how much hard work goes into setting one of these events up.
A good one for inviting other writers...
I am looking forward to this... and it looks like a good 'first' event for my friends who are newbies... thanks OC Screenwriters for putting cool stuff together...
Exposure
Hey folks, someone should contact the OC Weekly or OC register to see if they would like to cover this event. Maybe even volunteer to write the article so they wouldn't have to send someone out. Worth a shot.
