A Word From President
Angela M. Hutchinson
(April, 2006)
Hi members,

This is a new section in our newsletter, where I will offer a piece of inspiration. Below is one of my favorite poems. As you may have heard it before, really take these words to heart as you embark on writing/rewriting your script, getting an agent/manager or pitching your project...don't quit!

Have a productive month!

Angela M. Hutchinson President

DON'T QUIT!

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will.
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with the twists and turns,
AS everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out:
Don't give up through the pace seems slow.
You may succeed with another blow.

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
that you must not quit.
