I’m going to tell you about the greatest feeling in the world. In my demented mind anyway.

Today I finished the script for a short film for kids. It has a fairy tale feel over it, and there are few feelings that are better than the feeling of writing The End. When the creature that has lived in your head for months, maybe even years, has been released among the other creatures you may have released. Then to watch it grow, to show it to your friends or your colleagues.

But the greatest feeling is when one of those colleagues loves your piece. I imagine that this the same feeling parents get when their kids do something that makes them proud. To see a piece of your imagination make someone else happy, is the greatest feeling ever.

So today I’m happy because my friend and director loved the screenplay. Lets hope this will become huge.
