Earl, you don't like using periods, do you? Your sentences are nonstop run-ons. Look at your synopsis...it's a perfect example.
In your actual script, I didn't see a single time that you used 2 sentences together, in a paragraph. What I mean, is that you simply wrote 1 long, run-on sentence combined by incorrectly used commas, and called it a paragraph.
Sorry, but this alone is way too much of a problem for me to read any further than a few pages.
Maybe English isn't your native language? I don't know, but I don't recall ever seeing so many run-on sentences in my life. Give it another look and clean this thing up.

I don't think that English is the first language in the Phillipines.

Do they use actual sentences in Tagalog, or are run-ons the way to go?

They use sentences. Much like in english.
I am not sure why the 70 commas per paragraph.
