Only My Scriptwriting

by PureSciFi

Rated: E · Book · Sci-fi · #2209065

A blog devoted just to my scriptwriting. That’s all I’m going to blogging about here.

Only My Scriptwriting

As my title and description above read, this journal is all about my scriptwriting projects. I’m working on two of them right now. Water Wars is the one I’m working on at work. The Problems with Death The Final Ritual is the project that I’m doing at home. But they aren’t the only ones that I’m going to be creating here on WDC. They are just the ones I’m doing right now.

I have at least a million scripts within my head. And I’m not exaggerating about that. All I need to do is write them. Which I plan on doing. At least I will do as many as I can. I know that I can’t do them all. Not even a computer could do that. But that isn’t going to stop me from trying to do it.

So far, I’m in the planning stages for both projects. I’m almost finished with the single sentences for my Water Wars Outlines and Treatments. Once I get them done, I’m going to start working on the single paragraphs for them. Which is a lot more time-consuming. Especially, when it comes to the three Treatments.

My The Problems with Death The Final Ritual project is a little bit different, though. I’m still in the spreadsheet planning stage with it. This means I still have a very long way to go on it. Why am I writing all this here? It’s because I wanted to try to explain why you may not see them being created for quite a while.

You will practically know all about them because of these blog entries. But you won’t be able to see the final projects anytime soon. It’s going to be several months before I start creating them. And that’s if I do them when I get them done. Aka the Outlines first, then the Treatments when I get them done, and finally the completed scripts. I haven’t decided if I’m going to do them separately or all at once. But I will probably do them separately.

What do you think?

In response to "About Seventy More"

Thanks for your comments Kare Enga TH Udon Thani. Yes, Topeka still has a bus system. So does Lawrence. Unfortunately, they aren't connected. And I work in Lawrence. but I live in Topeka.

supposedly, the company that I work for doesn't have any shifts available in Topeka. If they did, I probably could take the buses. No matter what shift I was on.

In response to "About Seventy More"

Topeka... there's a bus system. Can you use that? Or find another ride? At least there was a bus system when I lived in Lawrence; but, I walked a lot. Great bus system in Missoula now that it runs later and on Sundays. I'd love to be back in Kansas but there's very little public transportation.

In Udon Thani, Thailand there are 'buses' but many people have mo-peds and moto-cys. Folks don't walk. I do. Grab (like Uber) is preferred by many. We don't have a car.

Since I just vomit on the page and then clean up later (and don't write scripts), I can't comment on your writing process. Only note... is there a different way you could try for a while that may work better for you?

Seems like you are making progress. I like that when it happens to me.

Best of luck.

In response to "Biggest Mistake of Them All"

I'm having issues with my LeNovo chromebook. The screen jumps around and even shifts or closes tabs. I lost about 300 words a couple days ago and I haven't gotten back to writing. At least, I remember the basic premise. I've considered writing everything by hand.

Glad to hear that you were able to resolve the problem.

In response to "Mostly a Relaxing Day"

My journal has over 5,000 handwritten pages. If I could scan and save? Priceless.

If I could go from cursive to text that would solve some issues. I could then use an on-line translator for a rough translation.

Hope this goes well for you.

In response to "A Very Good Yesterday"

I've been watching Thai TV series. Not all characters seem to be introduced in the first part of the first episode. In one a very important character is introduced mid-way. But by the end of episode 1 either I'm invested in a series or not. I have one that I've begrudgingly watched... it's getting better... but I'm not fond of it.

Setting matters to me. Most of Thai BL is cliche university. At least one had a cemetery and another a canal district. 1000 Stars... which I highly recommend had a rural village setting that was charming and most appropriate for the story. It was necessary to have background characters and some became memorable... which also suited the story. Even within structures the camera wasn't always set up in the same place.

So we have 3 basic locations: Ultimatate Confinement, Confinement, InWaterStructure. It would be nice if each were developed to the point that they become interesting in themselves, kinda like their own characters.

In Real Life I sit in 2 rooms. And it would be enough to take a picture of each and say, "here's where I live" as even I don't "see" everything after seeing it for years. But it's also possible to give it life as it changes over the years and almost everything that's here was put here by me. Unfortunately it truly refelects my turmoil and eclectic nature.

Even in a confined area the artist will do art, the singer will sing, the introvert will carve out personal space.

Hope you continue to make progress. I need to copy/paste my thoughts as I'm writing steampunk and need to remind myself that details matter if done properly.

In response to "The Bible So Far"

I've binged watched a few Thai TV series. The most recent is about a writer who has written a BL novel made into a series. Since the novel was successful he's being pushed into writing another. He'd rather be writing horror.

One goes with the flow or where the money leads you. "Gene" prefers to be left alone to write. But life intervenes and provides ideas that stoke his creativity.

In response to "My Last Two Days Off of the Year"

If you get a moment it's the "Cold Moon" tonight in North America, Earth. If you are voyaging in another part of the Universe that's cool too. But it'll look a bit like it did in October, 2016.

The Moon may be a harsh mistress, but she always looks the same.

Good luck on your other-worldly writing.

In response to "Only Two More Days This Week "

To be able to work. *sighs* Usually I don't mind not working, but this house-bound for 8 months is so mind-numbing. I do remember a few times at work when it was super-busy. How times flies when you're focused.

In response to "Writing Versus Work"

Wednesday. Use to mean "off to market" but there's so much smoke that it's dangerous to go out.

So I'll write. Nothing special about that. No focused projects at the moment.

"To pay bills and eat." At least there's that...
