I saw a homeless man sitting on the ground begging for change, he was obviously freezing. I felt bad for the guy, so I gave him a couple of bucks and kept walking. As I walked on, I started wondering how the man got to where he was now. Then I started inventing scenarios in my head about him trying to find shelter from the storm and what would happen if he did. \u00a0Once I arrived home, I had a found an initial premise for a script and jolted it down. I wrote the first 40 pages fairly quickly, but it took me 3 years to find the rest of the script. It was the first time (and hopefully the last) that happened to me; getting \u201cstuck\u201d on a script. With that, there was something about the story that resonated with me; I couldn\u2019t give up on it for some reason. So for years I had The Shelter on my mind, always trying to solve it. And yes, I was elated when I FINALLY did.<\/strong><\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single
