Speaking of our old buddy Jeff, he's pulled my shorts down already, all with one hand while 'collaborating' on my big fella with the other.....

I built a house. And had a sandwich.

No sex, I haven't got time for fiddling about. Or the toilet.

... Anybody have one of those ideas that you like, but it doesn't really fit....like at all. ** And now all I'm doing is hurting my head trying to work out how it could fit 'cos it won't let go of the bloddy thing.


Yes! I hate that. Marnie mentioned discarding ideas and letting new one's flow in, or something like that...

If only...

I get an idea and it won't get out of my head, dammit!

** Btw Bill, are you masquerading as a UK lad and really you're a California Girl?

On another note it's good to see SS with so many posts.

P.S. Khamanna, - you're not alone. I'm used to it.   Going to use Marnie's trick in future - brilliant.

This is exactly why the folks at Movie Poet would never let her out after curfew.

Sorry, a question that may have already been covered:

Though the instructions say 'writer cannot use V.O.', does that also apply to the one character with dialogue? As in:

1. can the character allowed to speak also occasionally use V.O.?
2. OR, if no onscreen characters speak, can there be an offscreen V.O. (a narrator, in effect)?

More fussed about point 1 than point 2. Not that I'm writing anything, or whatever...


Guess who's back? Back again?

No narrating.

No voice over, V.O.

The speaking character must be "on the scene" but not necissarily on camera while recording audio/dialog.

Example: Bob recites the Lord's prayer OFF SCENE, O.S., behind the camera while walking ON SCENE to the open grave in the center of the scene, he falls in, screams, and resumes reciting the prayer OFF SCENE, O.S.

No narrating V.O. reflection of "that time I fell into an open grave."

No VO at all. No narration.

I hope others are doing better than me because I'm drawing a blank. Bit disheartening really as I'm usually ok with these challenges and I really want to enter.

The combination of combining with another world - so a two way process - yet just one able to speak is throwing me.

If I can't  break the code tonight I will throw in the towel as I have other things to do. Shame.

Even the lack of VO is a hurdle that clashes with this eiders I do have.

Hey ho, have to keep thinking
