  The agency after looking them up are FAKE! WAAHHHH!!! I will though contact Creative Artists Agency in California later today to see if they can help me out. I will not give up- it's not my nature. People can scam and play with me- only makes me stronger. Still sucks though.
I don't know but I am sooooo sad I want to give up. I called C.A.A but wouldn't take me for they don't take any new enquries unless one is referred to them and do I wish Jim would refer me to them...Waaahhh!!! This is an e-mail I got... I am trying you know Thank you for contacting RC Management. Because you responded to our Yahoo Ad, you are entitled to a fifteen-minute free consultation, after that we require everyone to submit or request additional consulting through the shopping cart on our website. There are never too many GREAT screenplays, but unfortunately, there are too many AVERAGE works submitted to major directors, production companies, and investors making submissions for review, in either case, a hard won proposition to say the least. As you know all submissions to CAA or William Morris are by referral only, through those known to them. It is incumbent on those making the referrals, like myself, to assure the quality of what is submitted and the professionalism of the artist being referred. Shorthand, send great material and they continue to take your calls and submissions, submit junk and they stop. Before I can consider professionally assisting you or making referrals, I will obviously need to read the screenplay. I am actively involved with two reality TV shows and a funded featured film now in development, and my time is tight. I suggest that before you submit the screenplay and incur the costs of review, instead, send its film treatment or a thorough synopsis. While I do not have a charge on my shopping cart specifically for this purpose, if you use the example below to arrive at $210 and submit a secure payment by credit card or PayPal, I will send you my standard Non Compete/Disclosure Agreement, read your treatment, and report in writing regarding what I think. If I like it I will read the entire screenplay, prorate the $210 you paid towards a reading fee (depends on number of pages) for a line-by-line reading of your entire work. Of course, phone me first for your free consult, and we can take it from there. If you do not wish to pay for reading services, you may opt to pay for straight entertainment consulting services. My number is ***. I’m available this Monday at 10AM Central Time in the US . If you wish to pursue this, confirm that you will call. In any event best wishes on setting up your project Encourage Greatness, Robert Camacho
hmmmmm..........do legitimate agencies charge for their services up front???............i was always told never to pay upfront, if they are interested they'll take their cut after deals have been done.........but maybe it's different here........

Well, I've mailed him my synopsis. He was impressed at the fact that I sounded positive about the screenplay. Wish me luck in that he likes what he reads.
Well he contacted me but told me to fix my synopsis- so I did but I am not about to pay again to have him read it over-this is just sad...I feel like going into a hole and never coming out. The sad part is that I have to pay to have my screenplay read- 
Anyways, I rewrote the synopsis and that's all I will do for now... I give- 
Here is the synopsis for any one who wants to read it... Jake who considers himself a nerd always dreamt of owning his own business. He is the owner and manager of six delinquents who volunteer their service at his donut shop, except the employees have no respect for him nor any customer that comes in to the donut shop, making the donut shop one of the town’s worst place to go and enjoy a coffee or donut. One day Stephanie (one of the employees) decides she needs a few days off. Stephanie and her boyfriend Roland (another employee) come to agree that they do need a break. Both plan a trip to sea inviting Jake and promise to bring him a date, but this was a disguise to the real plan they have of leaving him at sea. The night came where Jake would company his employees on the boat ride. Jake went as far as going shopping at a local store for new clothing. He was excited to meet his date and to hang out with his employees for he had no friends and has never been on a real date. Jake’s employees suggest that he buys beer to bring with them on the boat ride. Jake while inside the liquor store had no idea what to buy so he made the guy behind the counter place whatever liquor bottles he grabbed inside the bags. The time had came for Jake to meet his date, all the employees where in the car waiting for him to step out of the car and go meet his date at the door but Jake was scared. Finally after a few knee shakes Jake got the nerves to meet his date. Once at the door Jake’s date (Susan) ignored him as she made her way to the car upset. While on the way to the boat deck Susan sat on Jake’s lap for lack of space in the car. Jake didn’t know what to do while Susan was on his lap, he sweated and felt he was going to pass out through the whole ride. At the dock everyone rushed to the boat while leaving Jake behind to struggle with the bags of liquor. On the boat ride Jake was drugged by his employees without him noticing while Susan paid no attention to him. When they arrived at an island Roland suggested to Jake to step into the island and made up a lie that no one came out of there once they stepped foot inside of the island. On his way out of the boat Jake tripped over a hose and fell out landing face first in the ocean but he still had confidence. He made his way towards the island only for Roland to turn the boat around and leave him behind. On the island after not seeing his employees Jake’s confidence wore off, leaving him sad, confused and feeling like a fool. His spirit was shattered until he comes across a shiny object that turned out to be a Genie trapped inside a bottle. After having a conversation with the Genie at the island Jake back in his home realized that the Genie was in fact real. He knew that things would now be as he dreamt of when he was a young boy, he had a Genie that indeed would help him with all his troubles. The Genie gives him that confident he only once had but when he got drunk and drugged. The Genie also gives Jake’s employees a little bit of their medicine by playing tricks on them. After his employees notice that something weird is happening they discover out that Jake has a Genie and start plotting on a way to steal it from him. They do steal the Genie from Jake only to regret ever doing so because the Genie would have the last say. In the end Jake’s donut shop tops the other stores in town, the dream he always wished for. Jake and the Genie live happily ever after.
