SimplyScripts Screenwriting Discussion Board  /  Questions or Comments  /  Automatic writing and ideas from the subconscious

Have you ever tried automatic writing?  Ever made a script out of a nonsensical idea that occured to you while letting your mind wander?  Ever written directly from the subconscious?

Ever submitted any of these writings to Simply Scripts?

I'm curious, because I have a script right now that is very surreal and abstract, and I want to learn others' interpretation of it, but I don't want to waste anyone's time with something "meaningless".

I'll take a look at it.  I have some that come pretty close to that but they are kind of planned so I wouldn't say they were automatic or written directly from the subconscious (even though it might seem that way to the casual reader).

Hi AsteroidJuice,

My Script serial Killer (Link below) came to me in a dream one night, so i dont think you can get more subconscious than that. I think you have read it and posted on it.

I woke up one morning and wrote the screenplay and have just signed up a production company in the States to do it.

The truth is what is hidden in the back of your mind may be worth expressing on paper as long as it is written to be understood.

Regards Alex
