So I didn't make my writing goal yesterday
So I have 5-7 more pages to write today. Need to finish off this first sequence. Then do some stuff for my thesis.
I just want to do my thesis stuff. Of course.
So, first sequence. This means nothing to anyone but me. I have to:
Establish characters
establish the close bond between villain and her son.
establish the spaceship and it’s geography
establish how much the protagonist...

Screenwripening
benjaminrobb:
Verb. Defined as sitting in an uncomfortable armchair, mulling over a story and its characters with Final Draft open on the laptop that is slowly dying on the flimsy three legged table in front of you.
Used in a sentence:
“Hey man. You busy?”
“Yeah, I’m screenwripening.”
“Fucking artists…”
Created: In phone conversation while in the act.
