Don’t Write What You Love. Love What You Write!
I was sitting in my current favorite coffee shop, working on an article for my ScriptMag column, when the guy in the seat next to me turned asked if I would look at three loglines and tell him which I thought was best.
Okay, it is Los Angeles, but I swear I wasn’t wearing my “Pitch Me: I’m A Story Consultant!” t-shirt.
Nevertheless, I gave him some feedback, because working on loglines – both for free and for hire – is part of what I do. I enjoy it and believe I’m pretty good at it. It was easy to pick the best logline of the three.
