Continuing education

Notes from my agent on the recent splay, and apparently I'm not as close to the gates of Hollywood as I thought. Lots of notes. The good news, everything is easily addressed. The common theme is the same old theme: CRANK IT UP! Man, these Hollywood folks really go for extremes ha ha. This is the most cranked up stuff I've ever written, and it's still not extreme enough. Yet, within the logic of his premise, my agent makes perfect sense, and I'm trusting his sense of the marketplace here, easy to do since I have little sense of it at all, except in terms of rhetorical cliches.

So I'm moving forward in the new splay and starting a new "cranked up per agent's notes" rewrite of the old one.
