Yes, I'm not that depraved (yet)
Lol.
It may not be a bad thing, allegedly Sorkin was high on crack while working on the West Wing (I say allegedly to be safe, but he appears to have admitted it often enough).
Pretty amazing feat to write 87 episodes of one of the best drama series ever, single handed and in four years. I doubt anyone could do that sober!

Well, drugs have led to some of the greatest artistic creations in history. Wonder what Joss Whedon was smoking when he came up with the idea for Buffy .

I fully agree, fionaman. Normally I finish a screenplay in 2-3 sittings (with a few days of procrastination between each sitting) but I couldn't stop reading this one. I couldn't even be bothered to make a cup of coffee.

BTW, you shouldn't doubt yourself or feel discouraged. The most epic, beautiful and effortless screenplays are the best "teachers" of the craft, right?

I'm reading Sorkin's The Social Network , the 2009 rough draft, mind you, and it's phenomenal .
Yes, could I also have a copy please?
I would love to read it.

Some people think screenwriting is easy. Well it is, but to do it well is harder than any other form of writing. You need to be very smart and incredibilly patient with the process. I love the social network BTW.
