it's biGGER

Just got done with the newest draft of the 'untitled action adventure romance' story.
As per everyone's suggestions, it's bigger, bolder, more romance, etc.




I'm at that point where I feel a bit shell shocked. It's typical of that "Fade out" point in writing. Do you celebrate? Do you keep quiet? Do you go back to page one and start again? When it's version coughchoke.6, you just take a deep breath, stretch and smile a little (not too much).

I'm going to read through it, try to knock a couple pages off, and then ship it off to the illustrious "group". If it gets the thumbs up from them, it gets a last brushup/rewrite and then -- next stage. It goes out. Out to the world out there... producers, agents of various sorts, who have been patiently waiting.

Additionally, the lowres-storyboard-vis-version of it can begin. More on that as it happens.

Thumbs down from the "group", and it's back to Go. Do not collect two hundred dollars, don't dream of Boardwalk.

  1. Congrats! Wow, an action adventure. I love those movies! I would imagine it involves a bi-plane,right? What a coincidence, you finishing your script and my writer finishing his manuscript. I wish I was in your "group" so I could read your script! I've had so much fun with my writer that I'm sad it's over.

  2. Yeah - action and romance. I think it's going to be a lot of fun - and yes - it involves Biplanes, Diamonds, trains, cars, featso of derring do - you name it.

    "Finish" is a hopeful word. They are never finished... :)
