Only My Scriptwriting

Phase One Comes First

Phase One Comes First

I don’t even know if I will stay awake long enough to finish writing this blog entry. After all, I have had only about three and a half hours of sleep in about the last thirty-six hours. Why didn’t I get more sleep today? It’s because of what my brother and I had to do today.

That isn’t exactly true. It’s usually because of my brother and me. Sometimes, it’s because of my brother, but today it was because of me. I am the reason why I only got about three and a half hours of sleep within the last thirty-six hours. It’s because of a Doctor’s appointment I had today.

I woke up yesterday afternoon at four PM WDC to get ready for working my twelve-hour shift at work yesterday evening and early this morning. After I got home from work, I stayed awake a few more hours before I got any sleep. That’s why I only got about three and a half hours of sleep today.

Usually, I get between six to eight hours of sleep after my twelve-hour shifts at work over the weekend, but I didn’t today because of my doctor’s appointment. As a result, I have been sleepy all day today. Normally, I can get a few more hours of sleep this afternoon, but not today.

My lack of sleep wasn’t just because of my doctor’s appointment. It’s also because of what my brother and I needed to do today. We didn’t have too much that we needed to do today, but what we did need to do is the reason why I haven’t had the time to get any more sleep today.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t affect how much writing I have accomplished in about the last thirty-six hours. I may have an excuse for only getting forty-two sentences written today, but there is no excuse for me barely getting one hundred and fifty sentences during my twelve-hour shift last night.

I don’t know why, but I barely got one hundred and fifty sentences written during my twelve-hour shift at work early yesterday evening at six PM WDC time to early this morning at six AM WDC time. That’s the bad news. The good news is that I finished the Part One Scene Outline.

Of course, I wanted to write a lot more than one hundred and fifty sentences yesterday evening and early this morning at work. I should have written at least the Part Two Story Outline of my mini-series for my Water Wars scriptwriting project, but I didn’t do that until today.

At first, I was planning on starting Phase Two of my DeathBringers scriptwriting project, aka my paragraph Story and Scene Outlines, during my days off from work this week. It wasn’t the lack of sleep as the reason I didn’t work on this project today; it was because of Phase One of my projects.

I want to finish writing Phase One, aka my sentences, for these projects before I start working on Phase Two of them. That means I need to update Phase One of my Water Wars scriptwriting project before I can start Phase Two. It also means I will be working on this phase for the next couple of weeks.

I’m not sure how long it will take to finish Phase One, but it will probably take at least a couple more weeks before I can get it done. After all, I have almost eight more Parts and Episodes to write before I get these sentences written. It will probably take longer than two weeks.

Especially, after early yesterday evening to early this morning, and today. If I keep this pace of writing up, it will take me about three or four weeks before I finish Phase One of these projects. Hopefully, the next few weeks won’t be as bad as it has been over the last thirty-six hours.

Unfortunately, it might be as bad or worse tomorrow. After all, I know that my brother and I have a lot to do tomorrow morning. What we need to do should be over by about one PM WDC time, but it doesn’t stop there. I may not have too much time to work on my scriptwriting project tomorrow at all.
