Only My Scriptwriting

Two Hundred and Fifty-Four

Two Hundred and Fifty-Four

That’s how many sentences I got written late yesterday evening and overnight early this morning. I got two hundred and fifty-four sentences written yesterday evening and overnight early this morning. That is about twenty-five or twenty-six for every hour. I could have probably gotten more written, but I’m fighting another cold.

That isn’t all that I’m fighting, though. I am also fighting not having anything to drink for the last half of my shift. I got a large Sprite on the way to work today, and it took me about six hours to drink it. That left me about six hours without anything to drink.

Between my cold and me not having anything to drink for about six hours, I was lucky that I got two hundred and fifty-four sentences written early yesterday evening and overnight early this morning. Why didn’t I have anything to drink for about six hours? It’s not because I didn’t bring anything else to drink last night and early this morning.

I did bring some Root Beer to work with me, but I couldn’t open any of it. I don’t know if it’s because of my cold making me weak or if it was something else. I often have problems getting my Root Beer open, but it hasn’t been every bottle. I think it was my cold.

Hopefully, I will do as good as today or better later this afternoon and overnight early tomorrow morning. I hope that I can, but I may not be able to do it because of the Guard Shack I’m in. The heater in there isn’t very good, and there is a hole where the lock should be. It gets very cold in there, and that doesn’t help the cold that I’m getting.

So, I may be lucky if I get another two hundred and fifty-four sentences later this evening and overnight, early tomorrow morning. How does that break down with my Water Wars scriptwriting project? I got the Part One sentences written for my Act Breakdown and my two Outlines.

I only had twelve sentences to finish the Part One Act Breakdown. That only took about an hour to write. After that, I started working on the fifty-four sentences for my Story Outline and the hundred and fifty for the Scene Outline. I also got the Part Two Act Breakdown done. Add all that up, and I got two hundred and fifty-four sentences written.
