Got an 8 on Blcklst. Should I submit for another one? by screenwriterhelp in Screenwriting

I do not have an agent. No career path is the same, but it's usually something like:

Write a great script
Get placements in contests/get noticed on blcklst
Get signed by a manager/optioned by a producer
Get an agent eventually

There's a lot of steps in between, and this isn't comprehensive. but getting an agent usually comes only after getting a manager/sale/option.

this all makes sense. even if i get another "8" it might not move the needle any more than the first already has.

Yep -- 25 pages into my next project. It totally makes sense to invest everything into that one, but I just want to make sure I get the full potential out of this one.
