Completed a pilot last week, pitched it yesterday to APA but, being that it was my first time pitching this story, I wasn't that confident I'd done a good job doing so. Lo and behold, however, APA requested the pilot. Thanks again, Joey.

That's great, Hal!
Fantastic news, Hal! And for the first time, congratulations!
Thanks to you all. I'm beginning to hear from managers/agents who've requested scripts and if they like the first one, they're going to ask for something else, so it's in all our best interests to have the next project, the next script available.
Great news!
Excellent Hal! It's funny how we can feel like our pitch wasn't good and then the script request.
Hal great to hear! Keep it up!
Great news Hal! Proof that first impressions (i.e. how you felt about your presentation) are not always right! Keep us posted on its development.
Congratulations
Yes! Way to go!
Congratulations!!
Fantastic News Hal.... funny how that works. Congratulations. :-))
Congrats!!! :)
WOW! Will APA shop it around now, or wait? Can you give us the logline?

Thanks, everyone. A request for another writing sample is usually just to get a better idea of the writer's skills and sensibilities, so no guarantees. The logline's on my profile page.
Congratulations Hal! I wish you much success:)
Nice one!
Wow! Way to go -- congrats!
Congrats Hal. Just out of curiosity, did you use a more "on the fly" technique or was there a methodical layout to your pitch?
That's great news. Especially for the first pitch! I look at it that even if they don't request the script, we get valuable reports back, so no pitch is a waste. Congrats again!
There are points I want to cover but I don't want to read the written pitch either. As it happens, I've gone back to the drawing board on this project. Too many holes.
That's great advice. Rereading my second script! Thank you and best of luck to you!
Congrats!
Congrats! Hope all goes well
Awesome man don't stop now.
Congratulations Hal!
