“In an interview I recently did for the acclaimed UCLA screenwriting professor Richard Walter, he posed the question, “How do you define success as a screenwriter today?”

“For me, success is simply waking up every single day and making the decision not to quit but to sitdown and write instead. The day I hang up my pencil is the day success will evade me forever. That’s just not an option.”

Is it money? Fame? Validation? Is “success” even possible to define…….”
