Between us, that’s a lot of room for rejection waiting for approval from the kind folks that get to assess what we do so that they can then put it out in the form of a movie/song/design/book/comic so that we can make a living from it.
Here’s where the ‘What OneSmallWindow is’ part comes in:
There’s a lot of waiting around, most of the time to collect a rejection slip, which after a while is just ‘YOU SUCK’, even if it reads ‘We regret to inform you…’ or ‘We are sorry to say that…’ or ‘Unfortunately, at this time…’
Here’s the plan while we wait for that kettle to boil, phone to ring, door to open for all those slammed shut portes - whatever the analogy - we refuse to just sit around. We’ll blog about every interesting bit of this creative journey instead -
- what we did while we were waiting
- what we heard, read and watched that inspired us to pick ourselves up and start all over again
- what could be part of your essential survival kit if you want to pursue a creative profession…
These are just thoughts for now, at the end of a very long post.
I read somewhere that online readers are notoriously lazy and love to read lists and look at pictures… so okay, lists and pictures too and hopefully something meaningful to others that are also waiting…
Famous and successful people, if you visit, be sure to leave us some helpful hints. We don’t want your money (unless you want to give it to us) but your words will mean more than you imagine.
The quest for success, fame and fortune or just an opportunity to ‘find oneself’ is one that can stretch on forever. E and L are two such people taking that journey, with more hiccups and pit-stops than they would like. This space will serve as travelogue, venting space, opinion house and possibly even a tip jar from which other weary travellers on the road to fortune and fame can take a cookie and hope that the little strip of paper inside offers an insight they’ve thus far been missing.
All that to say, we don’t know where we’re going and we don’t know how we’re going to get there but maybe we can make it fun for ourselves and in so doing offer the possibility of it being fun for you to read.
Thank you for stopping by and good luck with your quest.
