It never is - but it should hopefully be 'mistake free'. It reaches a point where you are suitably satisfied to expose it to others.

Never flawless, always a work in progress.

I wouldn't think 'flawless' - I would think 'ready'. When we've got the story we're ready to see - we love it - our readers love it - it's so good, I can't decide whether to sell it, or shoot it myself - I haven't gotten there yet, but! Ultimately it's not our decision. I believe we're ready when our Fans says, we're ready. They lift us!

okay maybe not flawless, cause of the implication it makes. Nothing is perfect.

Never flawless, never finished. When you reach a stage that it's acceptable to you then you are done.

When your name is Joel Schumacher, and it stars Robert De Niro and Phillip Seymour Hoffman (RIP). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0155711/
Aaaww Dan you shouldn't be so hard on yourself what ever you do don't give up, there are lots of stories to be told out there.

Perfection is in the eye of the beholder. Once you fix the spelling and grammatical errors, the rest is opinion.

Nothing is ever perfect. You keep rewriting until you get meetings... even then: I had a producer request of script of mine recently and I did a quick rewrite (improved it).
