Second Skin Part Two
Tuesday, May 12, 2009
The idea of letting others give you feedback is to find the faults in your script.
Thanks to Adrian Mead I now realise my main character is a walking, talking pile of rubbish and needs some serious work. Back to the drawing board then. More work than I wanted, but if it makes a difference then it's worth it.
Writing is such a hard slog sometimes.
Competition
Tuesday, May 05, 2009
I seem to remember saying I would enter loads of competitions this year, but so far I have entered none. Lazy? Maybe. But I like to think I'm making my scripts better by working on them hard, after all it's no good sending out your work if it's only half done.
Second Skin has been read twice now and I'll start to make notes for the third draft.
Next I'll be rewriting Faith.
Second Skin
Thursday, April 23, 2009
At last the second draft of
Second Skin has been completed. I'm planning to send it to the
BBC Writersroom and a few producers. I'm really please with this project and think it will be my break through project.
My
Mr. Vista episodes are coming soon, very soon. Watch this
space.
Next project to complete will be the feature
Faith.
40
Tuesday, April 07, 2009
I always said I'd give myself until I was 40 to break into the writing business, or I would give it up. Well, I tell you now, I have no intention of doing so...I'm going to keep on writing whether you like it or not :-P
Same Old, Same Old
Tuesday, March 31, 2009
I'm doing it again, getting ahead of myself. Planning to write more than is humanly possible. So I've stopped...not writing, but trying to concentrate on several projects at once. Time to finish Second Skin and send it to the BBC Writersroom.
