WELC ME
Ron,
Thank you so much for posting this. Lorelei's website is excellent.
Looks like some good info.
I've now read Lorelei's entire website, and I'm more convinced than ever that salesmanship and, as Stephanie Palmer would say, being "good in a room", is more important than actual screenwriting ability.
One more thing: The most important thing (IMHO) on Lorelei's website is actually a link to another website. I think everyone should read this:

Good point, Patrick.
I read that one in '99. :-) And I'm still writing.
