Man, I sure love to learn.  I wish I would have known this when I was a kid not paying attention in school, but hey, it is never too late.  So I sat down yesterday to do like people do when they want to learn something new these days. I opened up You Tube on my PC and searched “screenplays”because, let’s face it, it’s not going to write itself.  What came up was, as usual, a ton of “how to” videos showing how easy the process is.  Not one of the people in the videos I watched was anyone I had heard of, but that doesn’t mean they were not informative.  I was really searching on how to format it properly as I have heard so often that many amazing stories have not been heard because they weren’t formatted correctly.  While searching this, I uncovered a gem.  It is a free screenwriting and production software application that has me  typing away like a madman.  So much so in fact that short of taking a break to write this, I may end up having a first draft done by the end of this week.  I’ve been using the hashtag #makemybookamovie in the hopes someone within the industry would find it cute and pick up my book “My Aumakua” and start the process.  Finally done waiting and hoping, I am doing it myself and will be sending it out in a few weeks to anyone who will take it.  After I sit down and search “How to sell a screenplay” on You Tube, of course.  If anyone out there knows someone looking for an original idea for a movie, tell em how to find me.  www.ventsurfer.com I finished my book and published it, time to make a movie.  #YOLO #myaumakua
