What's stopping me? A ton of things really. mainly those who share the same interests as me. At the moment I like to think of myself as a one man army. So what am I doing with them? Just hoarding them up i suppose. Waiting until I can finally do something with some. It's also a good way to keep me busy.

Well, if you seriously want to make movies for a living then I wouldn't recommend waiting. Some people are lucky but for most,it takes a long time to build up a career. You may not feel ready to approach agents but it'd be a good idea to hook up with some film students or get together with some friends and actually make something. In the same way you're not a writer until you finish something, you're not a screenwriter until something makes it to a screen.

Just some friendly advice; take it or leave it.
