Screenplay First Draft Complete

The script may be genius, it may be awful. Right now, it doesn't really matter. 101 pages later, this baby is complete. The pressure has literally been lifted - I can feel it floating away into the ether, where I'm sure it will stay for at least a few hours.

A bath and a book to free my mind are now in order, before reading the whole thing through - before sending it off to my selected group for feedback.

I would write more but I have used up my allotted brain capacity for thinking of, and typing up words this week.

Care to share?

  4. I have a little celebration every time I finish a page, a LINE, let alone the whole damn thing!

    It can make the whole process a little slow, though.

  8. Yeah, the best is getting the first draft out of the way. The best writing, at least for me, comes in rewrites.

    Well, usually the 26th rewrite.
