Thank you all you lovely people. I am not giving up. I took a day off from thinking about my film and will use my weekend to fix stuff in the script.

This whole project has just turned into something way more professional than I thought it could be. Which is a good thing – but it means things have to be tip top. So that’s a weekend in the cafe writing. I might actually enjoy that. And Billy Mac (book) can’t wait to get out of the house :)

Remember, you went through one or the other crisis with your first two films. And you didn’t give up. Now, this is a bigger project, there have to be bigger crises. And, again, you won’t give up.
Imagine the film being finally shown at one of the major film festivals and your name will be in the main title and end title credits. You will be so proud.
Another experience before you shoot your feature film.
I agree with Miek and Pedro: Have faith. You can do it!

Will this film in fact ever be shot?
- Definitely !
Why am I doing this?
- Because you can !
Am I a good enough writer to fix those things in the script?
- I know (for a fact) that you are !
This is what writers normally have to do when they sell a script and it gets made into a film. If I want to be a serious writer, this is part of it. Is this something I could get used to?
- You’ll have to !
Am I stepping too far out my league trying to do a project like this?
- No. You’re not the first and surely not the last one to take such a step !

I could do with a holiday.
- Think happy thoughts. Seagulls en dogs, for example.

Have faith. I know you can do it.

This always happens, it’s normal and ok and you can do it. And it will make you a better writer. Be very thankful you like the people making your film!

Hey, it`s your first film, I know in the end it will be a great story, just calm down, and everything will be alright, have a little bit of faith in yourself ;o-)

You’ve just had a holiday!! (I haven’t had one for four years!!)
Keep at it, the harder it is the better you’ll feel when it all comes right (or something!)
