Above: My messy process….
Last Thursday I finished the script. I didn’t plan to and it happened in sort of a strange way. I had been transposing some things I had written last month into the script and found myself hitting various benchmarks within the script (midpoint, plot points, etc.) and then ultimately writing: THE END. And that was that. No confetti fell, no clap of thunder and no birds started singing outside of my window.
That said, I also know that there will be countless revisions. There are already things that I know won’t work or that need to be worked on, but I’m cool with that.
I scheduled a reading of it in August with a few actors, I’m excited to hear it out. I’ve also FINALLY registered with the screenplay writing class which starts next week. So I might be able to hear some things before I have the reading which is good.
Had dinner with my family last night and my brother inadvertently gave me a compliment. He looked at me and stated flatly: ”I thought you were supposed to get fat when you get pregnant. You look the same except you have a belly”. Thank you, dear little brother
