Virgo P.O.V
"So let me get this straight Miss Vincent"
Mr. Vaughn Duffel paused, "you're writing a movie that is based off of a book, written by a woman?"
"Yes sir, yes I am" I responded
" I-i don't know what to say Miss Vincent."
"Look sir, all I am asking is for you to take a look at my drafts and" I started pulling some papers out of my brief case, "I was thinking, what if the movie was completely made by women." If Mr Vaughn Duffel had a drink he would have spit it out.
"I-I'm sorry?" he stammered.
"Is there a problem with that sir?"
"We'll Miss Vincent, we already need to change your name in the credits, after all no one would watch the movie if they knew a woman wrote it." He stated emphasizing the word 'woman'.
"Excuse me?" They were going to change my name just because I was a woman? How was that fair. I did all the work so shouldn't I get the credit?
"Look Miss Vincent, I'm not going to beat around the bush" he sighed "if people new this movie was written by a woman it would never succeed. Hell, it might not even make it to the big screen"
"But sir if you would just consid-" I started as he led me out of his office.
"Look girly" he cut me off "you won't succeed in this business. You have the looks to be a model or an actress, but never a screen writer. It's a mans job, and that's all there is to it." with that he slammed the door in my face.Sorry that this chapter was so short :( However the rest of the chapters in this book will be longer, so :)
Anyway sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes.
