Why The Keyboard Miner?

Hello Dear reader who I may or may never have in the near or very far future or never:

Having been a pixel miner for most of my working career, and by that I mean I created pixels in one form or another for a living, I thought it would be proper to refer to myself as a keyboard miner now that I've decided I'm going to try and make a living by, well... typing in to my keyboard. :D

In the past several months, I've written, with and without writing partners, five screenplays, three treatments for film, and am in the process of writing a treatment for a novel. Had a producer like one of the scripts but haven't sold anything as of yet. As you may have guessed, this "trying to write for a living" things is pretty new to me and thought it would be a good idea to document it as I go along for my future reference and for those who might be interested in a writing career of your own.

All I can say is "here goes nothing" and hope that it all doesn't amount to that, nothing. Here's hoping the ride won't be too rough. :D Or maybe it should be rough, that way you'll keep coming back to read how much I'm suffering at the moment. Hehe~. Schadenfreaude here I come! :D

But seriously, please tune in. Who knows, maybe you and me will learn something along the way.
