"As Eric has mentioned in his responses to various questions, every actor represents a unique case in terms of what he or she has to offer. There's no magic bullets, no secret formulas, no real straight forward road to success. As all actors know, or at some point will find out, it's a crap shoot to some extent. We actors are all playing a sort of roulette with our lives. That being said there are things we can do. We can recognize that we have to embrace our uniqueness, not homogenize it.
We have to persist with a good attitude and we have to try and find people who believe in us without a profit motive as the soul reason for their interest. Everyone we meet along the road is a potential link to our success. Don't underestimate anyone, don't take anyone for granted along the often rocky road to the agent's, or casting directors office. There's a certain odd irony in our business - what we really don't want to do is act - We want to be who we are, in life and in front of the camera because that's what will eventually get us the kind of attention we want and fulfill our dreams. I met with Eric and found him to be very savvy about the business, and about my particular needs. Sometimes things which are staggeringly simple elude us for years. Eric made a suggestion which helped me greatly to plan a new approach toward moving my career forward.
He's also funny and positive. Humor and a positive attitude are things all us actors could use a lot more of. Try him, you'll like him."
