Suggestion, and this comes as some one who writes comic's. I dunno maybe have an interview with a creator. Our scripts are basically set the same way to a point - just we have one audience when it comes to the script. But I use FD8 w/ a template that was put together by Warren Ellis. Anyways, Just a thought. Was able to pump out two scripts (comic) and I'm in for March as well.

And I may do a screen play this time around. I got a couple ideas and inspiration from The Nerdist Writers Panel. Not sure if you've listen to that particular podcast.

I wouldn't mind seeing that blog you mentioned you were going to do about my question in the Back to the Future series....basically it was about all the setups they do in that movie....and how to make things smooth without it looking like a mess or feel contrived. I also thought about a blog on overcoming adversity. Screenwriting or writing in general is not always ideal. Life is still happening. Your mortgage is not going away. You still have responsibilities. Lee Child said that he was fired and jobless at age 40, basically black-balled from his job and a family to feed and he had to hit the first novel out of the park or his family couldn't eat (plus he had no other career prospects). Evan Daugherty was living on a hot plate, dropped by his first manager.... As for rewriting, the hard part is taking it to the next level where it all comes together and it becomes a wow draft. That first draft might have scenes that are promising....but often it's a mess, with good scenes mixed in with flat ones. I saw Ghost the other day and just marveled at how seamless it was weaving in and out of funny moments with sad or thrilling elements, while still keeping a firm control over the story.
