No, they don't. I'm tall, but I prefer shorter chickies. Perfect height for me is around 5'-1" to 5'-5". I'm around 6'-2".
So when I intro the Mermaid in My Mermaid, My Meat as being 5'-2', please understand why the exact height must be stated, as it will come into play later in the script in a daring escape from a local marine water park involving several Orcas, dolphins, and penguins.

The penguins pick the lock to a Mini Cooper with the Dolphin's nose and the Orca acts as the getaway driver . . .
Sorry, crookedowl, but once you exceed 10 posts on a WC thread there's no backing out. It's pretty much the same as signing your name in blood. If you bail now it's equivalent to mutiny and punishable by law. You'll be terribly ostricized and forever known as crooked ostrich". It's a rule.
Of course they don't tell us these things before we start. Gotta read the small print.
I asked earlier if it would be OK if we could co-write scripts together for this.
No one got back to me.
I've written 11 pages. If you could write the last 90 or so pages, I would be good with that.
Some of my scripts:
Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner The Gambler (short) - OWC winner Skip (short) - filmed Country Road 12 (short) - filmed The Family Man (short) - filmed The Journeyers (feature) - optioned
I may consider that for a future project (of course if that would be fine with you), seems like it could be excellent, but with what I've focused on I've been aiming for a more Horror/Mystery then Crime/Mystery with Horror elements.
Actually that was my loose translation and a condensed version of your previous logline. In other words all I was saying it seems a bit wordy and could be edited down a bit more. Check out that link for Babz Buzz concerning loglines.
How about this, I'm not to sure: A writer finds inspiration in a phone containing pictures of grisly murders and an unknown killer that leads to his family life and his sanity spiraling out of control. OR A writers life and sanity begin to spiral out of control when he finds pictures in a phone of grisly murders and an unknown killer.
I don't know why I like using the word "grisly" so much.
Criminy. Not sure if I'm gonna make the deadline. I went all Robotard 8000 on my script thinking I was being funny and clever. After rereading it I can see now it's a product of way too much caffeine. I'm basically back to ground zero and slightly traumatized.
I don't drink much coffee anymore, but I much as you re-wrote the ten pages I started with.
We'll see tomorrow after I red line it again.
It seems that often scripts have a mind of their own and whatever it is they're saying, a person just needs to put up with it until some glorious resurrection of the dead takes place. Waiting for that.
