The first script I ever wrote was in the fall of 1994. I was a year out from graduating with my journalism degree and taking a 400-level Shakespeare class for “fun”. The professor had us write an adaptation of the closet scene in Hamlet. He wasn’t pleased with the results, declaring most people had failed but there was one 4.0. When he returned the scripts, I saw the 4.0 was mine. Underneath the grade was a single line: “You have a lot of talent as a playwright.” That one line flipped my writer’s script. I was hooked.
