i emailed her and politely asked if she'd read my frickin' script. she responded and promised to read it this weekend. two weeks later...nothing. i emailed her again; spinning WTF into an eloquent letter inquiring as to the status of my script. nothing.
my barrel of patience bone dry, i decided to call the agency and speak to her.
receptionist: Diverse talent. How may I help you?
me: Angeline Cook please.
receptionist: I'm sorry, she's no longer here.
me: What do you mean? Has she left for the day?
receptionist: No. She's no longer working here.
me: (12 second pause) Well...do you have a phone number I can reach her at?
receptionist: No.
me: Is she at another agency that I could call?
receptionist: I'm afraid I don't have that information.
a multitude of curse words began piling up in my mouth. I hung up the phone. wonderful. what now? what...now.
i recently purchased an Agency Directory and located the name of another agent at Diverse Talent; Amanda Brammall. Based on Angeline's company email address, I figured it was some combination of Amanda's name @DiverseTalentGroup.com
Now came the fun part; unlocking the code:
REJECTED.
REJECTED.
REJECTED.
finally, the tenth variation went through. success! that was last week and i still hadn't gotten a response; until this morning. the email was asking me to update my information with my agent and mentioned various success the agency has recently had. i promptly wrote back and said that my agent was M.I.A. and I was unsure how to proceed. i requested a meeting with another agent in order to continue where Angeline left off.
now i reset my clock and the waiting game re-commences.
