Only My Scriptwriting

Good News, I'm Ready

Good News, I’m Ready

This may be another short blog entry. Not because I have nothing to write about this time. Because I do. It’s because my computer is acting up again. I’m not too bad on time right now, but if these buffering delays continue it may become a very big problem. That’s why this may be a short blog entry.

My goal earlier today at work was to get seventy single sentences written for my second scriptwriting project, The Final Ritual. That equals Act Six and Act Seven. If I could do that, then I could get Act Eight and Tag Act Two after I got home from work. That’s what I was hoping for, and that’s what happened.

I barely got the seventy written by the end of my shift earlier today, but I did it. When I got home from work, I started working on the last two Acts of this movie Scene Outline. Because it was only fifty-five more single sentences, I figured it would take about an hour to finish. I was slightly wrong about that. It took me about an hour and a half.

However, I look at it the results are the same. I’m finished with the single-sentence Outlines. Now I’m ready to start working on the single-paragraph Outlines, and I’m going to start doing that as soon as I get two tonight at midnight. Since I have ninety-six single paragraphs to write for my Story Outline, I’m not sure how long it will take to write it.

I’m hoping it will only take a couple of weekend shift days to write it. That’s twenty-four hours, and that equals four per hour. Of course, it will be a little bit more than that because I have patrols to do at work. It will be closer to ten point five hours per day instead of twelve hours. That means it will be about four and a half per hour.

It’s still going to be about four to five per hour. That’s possible. Especially, since a third of these ninety-six is three sentences long. That means the other two-thirds aka sixty-four are four or five sentences long. Four lines for the secondary characters of Kealor, Pallim, Tylmer, and Corma. That leaves five lines for Dinill and Marri.

So, it’s possible I could get this Story Outline done by the end of this weekend. I’m not going to count on that until it happens, though. I have thought that before, and for one reason or another it didn’t work out as planned. That’s why I’m hoping for it to happen, but I’m not counting on it until it does.
