There is nothing more important than continuing to work and grow in your craft. Acting is an infinite art and there is so much knowledge to be gained. I agree completely!

I often try to explain to others and it never seems to work. Some of the pretty girls believe that they are entitled and it often gets ugly when I get their roles hehe Very well said.

Sometimes it's them and sometimes it's you. If you feel like you're at the mercy of your agent and unable to fend for yourself I strongly recommend you consider a solid business of acting course like the Industry Boot Camp program offered by TVI Actors Studio in New York. This might be a good time for you given the large discrepancy in the value of the pound vs. the dollar. Contact me at the studio and I can give you more information!

I remember the SAG strike in 2000 well, and saw a lot of people get into a lot of trouble and leave the business. I see the same thing happening in the aftermath of the writer's strike. I actually just wrote on my blog about it - <a href="http://abundancebound.blogspot.com/2008/04/why-financial-education-should-matter.html" rel="nofollow">Abundance Bound Online</a> if you are interested. Too many people think the good times will last forever, and put nothing aside to cover them for the lean periods. I am glad you are pointing this out. You hit upon something very true here.

Your "Oh my God" moment is simply discovering new things in your piece. Don't worry if you didn't find it at your last audition, the beauty of acting and working off of impulse is that hopefully it will be different every time. Thanks for your positive comments Elvira!

I was having so much trouble finding a dramatic monologue, but when I found one that I connected to until today I repeat it over and over. In the shower, out loud to my kids even when laying in bed and every single time it gets better and I say to my self "Oh my God why didn't I do it like that at the audition". I do understand those out there that say they hate it because it is hard to find one, but I relized finding time to go to the libary and picking up a play even if don't know whats about that is what makes it so amazing.

She now has exclusive wordwide representation for film, television and theatre.
