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

It Took Me Almost the Whole Shift
It Took Me
Almost the Whole Shift



I don’t know why, but it took me almost my whole twelve-hour shift to finish writing my Episode One Scene Outline. After all, it was only about one hundred and thirty sentences, aka the equivalent of twenty-six paragraphs. It should have been almost double that. I may not have gotten too many of the Episode One paragraphs written, but I would have gotten some written.

What is the usual reason why I don’t get more written during my twelve-hour shift at work? That’s right, it’s usually because of the amount of work I need to do while at work. That is usually the reason, but not this time. Despite it being Thanksgiving during the first seven hours yesterday evening, it was still somewhat busy at work yesterday.

It wasn’t very busy the first seven hours of my shift yesterday evening, but it was busier than I thought it would be, considering it was Thanksgiving. I would have understood it if it had happened after Thanksgiving, aka early this morning, but it wasn’t. It’s just the opposite. It was busier during the first seven hours of my shift yesterday evening.

I could have started writing the paragraphs for my Episode One DeathBringers Story Outline, but I decided not to do that. Instead, I decided to start my blog entry for today. After all, I only had about an hour until the end of my shift this morning. Usually, I wait until I get home to start writing my blog entries, but not today.

It’s probably going to be like that for the next three days. I will start working on my paragraphs for my Story Outlines for my DeathBringers scriptwriting project about an hour before the end of my shift. After all, it gives me more time to relax before I go to sleep and more time to get more sleep before I return to work that evening.

What does all that mean for this project? It means that I will start working on the Episode One Story Outline. Will I get all forty-two paragraphs written early this evening to early tomorrow morning? I have written more than forty-two paragraphs during a twelve-hour shift before. There is no reason why I can’t do it again for the next three days.

Hopefully, I will get another forty-two paragraphs written early this evening to early tomorrow morning. Then again, maybe I won’t. After all, I didn’t get the equivalent of that many yesterday evening and earlier today. I hope that it will be the forty-two instead of the twenty-six, but I’m not going to count on anything until it happens.

It may not have only been how busy it got at work yesterday evening and early this morning as to why I only got one hundred and thirty sentences written during my first twelve-hour shift this week. Another reason may be that I was watching movies tonight while I was at work. Watching them may have slowed down my writing somewhat.
