The next script that I am working on is SO close to being done I can taste it. I am at page 80 some odd. It has taken me so long to get here! The days I have to write are few and far between, and I have not been spending them as well as I could. I can tell you where this one is going once I am done too: right on the shelf. I don’t want to look at this script again for a few months at least. This is a revision of one of my first scripts so I am getting tired of the idea. While I love the characters and the over all concept, the structure is as weak as a house of cards. This script trips and falls on itself so many times its amusing. So I hope to finish this week. I am giving myself a dead line. Something I try to do more of but often don’t.
I am especially excited to finish and try out a new outlining software I found! I know some writers tend not to use outlining but I learned the hard way that I can’t live without it. The software is called scrivener, and from the videos on the website it looks like it is just what I need to focus my ideas into one central area. As it is now I have a few places for ideas, well more than a few…the cork board, stickies on my mac, notes on my phone, all over the place. Stuff gets lost, forgotten, it sucks. With this program I hope to have everything in one place and focus my outlining time to be used more efficiently.
Other than that I am excited about working on a few stories I am cooking up. Stay tuned! I will hopefully have samples in the coming months!
