Only My Scriptwriting

Almost As Good As Yesterday

Almost As Good As Yesterday

Usually, I get a little bit more writing done on a Friday than I do a Thursday. That’s not true this week. it was almost the opposite. I almost got thirty-six single paragraphs written in one day. If I had about a half more hour on my shift, I probably could have done three more, but I didn’t have that half hour.

Unfortunately, I only got thirty-three single paragraphs written earlier today. That’s still very good. At least I think that it is. Especially, since it came from me at work on a weekday with only about five hours to do my writing. That is almost seven single paragraphs per hour. That’s very good if you ask me.

How many single paragraphs wasn’t all that was slightly off earlier today at work, though. It was also the number of scenes I got written too. Yesterday, I got ten scenes written. Today, it was only nine. Well, in a way, it was ten because of the five Establishing Shots, but it was still just nine scenes itself that got written.

As I just mentioned, I got five Establishing Shots written earlier today. That means I finished writing Act One of Part Two of the Movie Introduction for my Water Wars scriptwriting project. It also means I have gotten the first five scenes for Act Two written. Which means I only have thirty scenes left before I finish Act Two.

I only need four scenes to end Act One. Got them done and thirteen single paragraphs done in the first two hours of my shift earlier today at work. That left about three hours after my two rounds to write the other twenty single paragraphs today. That’s about right. After all, it’s still almost seven single paragraphs per hour.

If I didn’t have the five Establishing Shots, I probably would have gotten at least one more scene done and three more single paragraphs. After all, I have trouble writing my Establishing Shots. I know what I want to write, but I sometimes have trouble writing it. That takes time I could be using to write my single paragraphs.

Tomorrow is Saturday, I have been writing about fifty-eight to sixty-two single paragraphs per day. That’s about eighteen to twenty scenes. If I remember correctly, the lowest number was fifty-two single paragraphs. That isn’t too bad, but it’s not as good as fifty-eight or more. Hopefully, I will continue getting that many tomorrow.

It may all depend on how long it takes me to write the one or two other Establishing Shots that I know I’m going to be writing tomorrow. There could be one or two more, but I think there will be at least one or two. then again, I may be wrong about that. I’m not sure when the Earth Time is different from where Reen is in this Movie Introduction.
