So I was looking into film as one of those things that you take years off doing something you love. I borrowed a book on scriptwriting and it basically disheartened me to the entire concept of writing for TV. It turns out you have to jump through hoops and cut off your toe just to get a shot to be someones bitch. I have to admit alot of the book sounds like propoganda for the Writers guild, but alot of sounds like valid points that not so dedicated people overlook. Like not making more money than a school teacher. I haven't reached the part about film, but I'm pretty much giving up on writing scripts as a "hobby."

Does anyone have any other input on this?
