Lead by the example then, Lib!

I just came home. Maybe I'll have strength to write it and even submit.



C'mon, ladies! Get it done!

Well, I'm writing and in my confused mind the idea I came up with is absolutely brilliant!

Quoted from PKCardinal
It looks like I'll be in.

I know it sounds redonkulous because everybody says it... but, I truly don't expect this script to be competitive. And, that wasn't my goal for this one anyway. I've been dealing with some weird health stuff and it's been saddling with me with a couple of odd but very distracting symptoms. Mainly, insomnia, brain fog and this strange, indescribable "numb" sensation in my legs and left arm (it's not numbness, but I don't have a better word for it). Point is, I've never been as locked up creatively as I have been in the last 8 weeks. So, I saw this challenge as an opportunity to break through the wall and get words on paper. Didn't care if the words made sense. I just wanted words. And, thankfully, I've accomplished that. First written words in 8 weeks. That's what SimplyScripts can do for you.


It's all good, Paul, particularly since it isn't a contest.  It's a challenge.  And since you've gotten a script in, you've already 'won' (as has everyone who got their script in despite not understanding the 'bullet-proof-clear'(tm) theme that only made perfect sense to me and you.).

I am sorry to hear you are in a weird place. I can sympathize/empathize. I'm glad that this challenge has helped a little to break through the fog a little. It has for me and I'm a little more inspired and energized.

Done. Submitting now.

For the record, Warren, how many times do I have to reread it until I think it's awesome?

Writing is so much fun.

I've tortured Don with multiple revisions.  

I honestly don't think I've ever rewritten a short this many times. Still got time for another revision or two.

SO CLOSE!!!!

Submitted!!!

Everything turned out how I planned. Words poured from my subconscious onto the page as if by divine guidance. The computer and I became one entity with a singular purpose: to write the greatest screenplay ever. And we did.

Just kidding. It was a trainwreck.


That rug really tied the room together.

Holy Moly Guacamole... I think I barely got mine in on time.

I had so many ideas, but I didn't start until way too late, story of my life apparently...
