“Unlocking the Secret: How I Secured 10 Feature Script Deals in Just Four Years—No Agent Needed!”
The Dark Years, Screenwriting-Wise
Blackout finally came out in 2012. I had visited the set during shooting, hearing and seeing my words come to life. It was a thrill. The miniseries was a Top 10 series overseas and debuted above the likes of True Detective and Game of Thrones on iTunes.
However, it’s not that much to write home about. It was a low-budget project that benefited from some great B-level (respectfully) names.
