Only My Scriptwriting

Forty-Two Single Paragraphs

Forty-Two Single Paragraphs

Forty of those single paragraphs were for numeric scenes. The other two were for Establishing Shots. That’s forty-two single paragraphs total that I got written earlier today at work. That is about average for a Saturday. It could have been a little bit better, though. Maybe one or two more at the most. Three more if I was lucky, but I had another hiccup earlier today.

Very early this morning at about four-forty something happened. I’m still not sure what it was. It sounded like a big metal object hitting the ground right behind me, but nothing was there. I kind of checked the rooms behind me too, and nothing looked like it had fallen, metal or otherwise. There was no alarm either. So, I don’t know what it was.

Maybe I imagined it. I do have a very good imagination. At least that is what a lot of Reviewers say about my writing. Especially, my Science Faction, I mean Science Fiction. Maybe it was one of the ghosts that live where I work. I have never seen any of them, but I know they are there from the sounds I hear every so often. Yes, I do believe in ghosts, and I do believe there are at least two of them where I work.

Whatever it was, whether I imagined it, it really happened, or it was ghost-related, it may have slowed me down a little bit when it comes to my writing. Not because I was scared, shocked, or spooked. It was because I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I don’t think that it slowed me down that much, though. If it slowed me down at all.

Normally, I get forty to forty-five single paragraphs written on a Saturday, and forty-two stands out in the middle of it. So, I did about average for a Saturday. It could have been more, or it could have been less. I’m kind of surprised it wasn’t a little bit less. After all, it may not have been just the weirdness going on earlier today at work.

It may have been how I was feeling too. I wasn’t feeling too well earlier today at work. That’s not too surprising. That has happened to me a lot lately. Don’t know if I was fighting another cold, or if it was something else, but it did slow me down some. I don’t think it was a cold. Because it didn’t last me too long. Usually, when I have a cold or starting one, I’m down all during my shift. That wasn’t what happened to me today.

Now for the big question. How well am I going to be able to do tomorrow on my Water Wars scriptwriting project? I’m hoping that I can do a little bit better tomorrow than I did today. Normally, I do write a little more on a Sunday than on a Saturday. So, I may be able to get about forty-five single paragraphs written tomorrow. I’m not going to count on it until it happens.

After all, I have thought that before. Only to have it not happen for one reason or another. I don’t think that it will happen to me today. At least not with the weirdness, but it could with how I’m feeling. I’m feeling okay right now, but that could change. Especially, when it comes to work. Anything can happen at work, and it usually does with me.
