Only My Scriptwriting

Something Went Wrong Yesterday

Forty Paragraphs in Two Days?

Unfortunately, I only got another eight paragraphs written for my movie, ‘The Final Ritual for Hummannan,’ Story Outline today. That means I still have forty paragraphs to write before I finish writing this Story Outline, and now I only have two days to write them if I want to get this project finished before I return to work this weekend.

Why did I only get eight more paragraphs, aka Teaser Act Two, written today? It was because I only had about two hours to work on this project. This was not a typical Wednesday. I should have had four to five hours to work on this project, maybe even six hours, but I didn’t. Why didn’t I have more time to work on my scriptwriting projects?

That’s a very good question. What is the usual reason why I don’t get more writing done in a day? That’s right, it’s because of what my brother and I needed to do that day. I knew about this morning and early in the afternoon, but I didn’t know what else my brother and I had to do today. As a result, my writing time suffered.

Will I get these forty paragraphs written before I return to work this weekend? After all, that averages twenty paragraphs for the next two days. It’s possible I could get twenty paragraphs each day over the next couple of days. I have done twenty-four a few times lately. There is no reason why I can get forty paragraphs over the next two days.

I know that my brother and I have something that we need to do tomorrow morning, but we should get it done before noon. I’m not sure what else we need to accomplish tomorrow. If that’s all we need to do tomorrow, I should have plenty of time to work on this scriptwriting project. Unfortunately, it probably won’t be the only this we need to do tomorrow.

As for Friday, I don’t think my brother and I have too much we need to do this Friday. I’m sure that we will have a few things that we need to accomplish this Friday, but hopefully it won’t take us too much time to finish doing them. If that’s true, I may still have the time to finish writing this Story Outline for this movie scriptwriting project.

Hopefully, I can get at least twenty paragraphs written for this project tomorrow and Friday. I hope that I can get another twenty-four paragraphs written tomorrow or Friday. If I can do that, it means that I only need sixteen paragraphs written on Friday or tomorrow. It can be done. After all, I have done it before. Will I do it again?

It mainly depends on what my brother and I need to accomplish tomorrow and Friday. The more time I have to devote to my writing, the more paragraphs I can get written during that time period. I’m hoping that I can get twenty-four paragraphs tomorrow or Friday, but I’m not going to count on anything until it happens. I have thought that way before.
