A blog devoted just to my scriptwriting. That’s all I’m going to blogging about here. |
One Hundred or About Twenty I know this will be a Short Blog Entry. It’s not because of what I have to write about: it’s because I have less than an hour to write this blog entry. It is either that, or I miss another blogging day. That’s not the way to start a new year, missing another blogging day so soon after the start of a new year. Of course, I know that would be a new record, even for me, but that’s not the kind of record I want to break. What I do have to write about is the one hundred and seventy-five sentences that I wrote for my Act Breakdown, Story Outline, and my Scene Outline for my movie ‘The Final Ritual for Hummannan.’ Luckily, I wrote most of these sentences early yesterday evening at six PM WDC time to six AM WDC time earlier this morning. I got one hundred and twenty-five sentences written for this scriptwriting project, or the equivalent of about twenty-five paragraphs. The other fifty sentences I got written this afternoon. The other fifty sentences I got written in about three hours this afternoon. Why did I only have three hours to work on these sentences? It’s because I only got about four hours of sleep today, because of what my brother and I had to do before I went to sleep after working a twelve-hour shift yesterday and today. That leaves me one hundred sentences left to write, or the equivalent of about twenty paragraphs, before I finish this phase of this scriptwriting project. After I finish these sentences, I will start working on my paragraph Story Outline. Unfortunately, I can’t start that before I return to work tomorrow. Normally, I would have a few days before I went back to work again, but I can’t do that this week. After all, I have already worked twenty-one hours this week. I still have my twenty-four hours this weekend. That’s good for my paycheck, but it’s not so good for my scriptwriting projects. What that means for this project is that I won’t be starting the paragraph Story Outline associated with this project when I return to work tomorrow afternoon. I know I often have about three hours to work on my writing projects before I return to work tomorrow afternoon at six PM WDC time. Still, it’s very unlikely that I will continue this scriptwriting project before I return to work tomorrow. If I’m lucky, I could maybe get another fifty before I return to work tomorrow, early evening. It’s unlikely that I will even get that many sentences written before then. If I’m lucky, I should get these sentences and equivalent paragraphs written by the end of the day tomorrow. After all, I have seven hours to accomplish this. Once I get these sentences done, I will be ready to start working on my paragraph Story Outline for this movie scriptwriting project. That should be accomplished during my first twelve-hour shift this weekend. It looks like I was wrong again about this being a short blog entry. It’s probably going to end up being one of my longest blog entries, if not the longest one, and I still have a lot I could write about. |
