I wrote a screenplay about my life in that time-frame (using the Viet Nam draft as the dramatic framing). It is full of similar stories. In fact Gino at Confession didn't make the cut.

A few years ago a particular actor who was trying to start a career as a director was committed to shooting the film. He had directed two previous films. A Canadian production company commited to financing the shoot outside Toronto.

There was one hitch. The actor had shot six episodes of a new, edgy series for TV. If the series took off then the actor/director was committed to nineteen more episodes. Nobody thought that America would embrace the show.

The wife and I watched the first episode with candles lit in petition that it would truly suck.

By the second commercial we were hooked, and so was America. Damn Jack Bauer.

Hang in there.

Story telling is THE most human traits there is.

I believe it happened right after fire was discovered, I mean what else do you do at a campfire but BS.

Keep submitting.
