Let's post 'em!  Mine will not be a first draft.  It will be ready and rocking like Frost Bite!


You're not going to become this year's Baltis, Jeff? Shame because I was actually interested in reading his last year because it was written the same way mine was.

I forget how it went exactly but it was a 7WC like this one. And, Baltis had this idea which I believe he said he had done by the end of the second week and polished by the fourth. And, he really talked it up, as he does, it's his style but then he disappeared and didn't show up again for a while. I think someone posted that he had a baby (not he, but you know what I mean) and it took up his time but I never got to see that script and I was really disappointed. One of my favorite types of scripts are inter-locking stories. The old posts for it are still in this section actually. Try going back to page 3 or 4. Should be around there somewhere.

EDIT: I stand corrected. It's still on page 1.

Pia, I'd love to exchange mine but I have to work on it some more otherwise the logic is off at places. Also I need to edit - it's blah grammar right now.

I'm planning and planning to get to the rewrite but like yourself - I don't like rewrites... I keep postponing them. If I know that I have to get it ready in two days I would start though.

Maybe make a commitment for the exchange?

Blonde!  HaHa!  I am the Baltis, I am the eggman, I am ME!

Funny...yeah, I know, me too., I was looking forward to old Balt's script, as I was with the nonexistent Frost Bite.

Don't worry, I'm not going to disappear.  No baby coming over here.  I'm in the for the long haul, and I will be done on time, and it will be ready.

Khamanna,

How about you send me yours 1week before deadline? That will give you 5-6 days for at least some adjustments.

Well, I can't really blame him because I didn't get mine done last year either. Although, I didn't talk mine up and God damn Final Draft kept deleting it. I still actually work on it and am 60 pages in. Just can't get around to the final 30 or so. =(

And, yes, it was funny in a big, fat, tall, Chinaman with red hair-kind of a way.

Remember, I pulled out of that 7WC also...but I did it early on, and way before I ever wrote anything.  I had issues, as I always seem to.  BUT, even though I still am having issues, it won't stop me from completing this classic!  Sorry about the talkin' it up, I just can't help myself.  It's the Balt in ME!

After a slight hiatus, I got mine up to page 50 last night with a bizarre reversal that should confuse the crap out of everyone except writers who tend to guess the ending at page 1 anyway. 40 minimum to go, and I'm shooting for that to take exactly 4 days. I know once I get the slow reveals out of the way, the story should flow smoothly through the climax and out.

Sweet, George.  Way to go.  We're about even now, then.  You caught me, damnit!

I need to get to at least page 60 by the end of the day.  I think I can do it.  Got to start cranking it out!

You guys are monsters. I think it's only me and Ripley who aren't even half way done.

Pia and Khamanna are the monster freaks who are already done, somehow.

We're all going to get there, though.

Cathy said she finished the second draft even.

First drafts are easy. It's going back to rewrite that is hard. Will do though.  

C'mon guys, you can do it!!
