They were a risk, as most artists are, and anyone who doesn’t immediately see a market for a product is not going to buy it. These people aren’t in business to help people out up-and-comers, they’re in business to make money. And generally, the cream has a way of rising to the top.

Literally thousands (tens of thousands? hundreds of thousands) of incredible screenplays, books, albums, etc. are turned down by big studios every year. It’s nothing personal. No need to force them to eat anything, just be proud of how far you’ve come.
