I went to the New York Television Festival and made some new friends as well as met with some old acquaintances. Usually I would start mentioning names but I have found that people tend to think that you are riding on their coattails when that happens so I will leave out names for now.
Some cool things happened at the fest like meeting the People's Choice Award Winners a week before they knew that they had won the award. Also, ABC was the dominant force on the first day and I was fortunate enough to pass my demo to some very important writers from their camp.
The last day of the fest was interesting as well. HBO had a premiere of their first cartoon series in 9 years and it was hilarious! Also, some heavy hitters were there vying for recognition and contacts. I can't and won't mention names because of my earlier statement and also because they have yet to contact me. That's my way of playing tit for tat (so to speak :))
Anyway all seems to be going well for those who strive for success. If you don't put forth the effort then, of course, you can't reap the rewards. Keep striving to be better than you or others expect and surely something good will happen.
Take care.
Nate
