Script Frenzy Success!
It’s official! I have completed my Script Frenzy screenplay with a full five days to spare. Piece of cake, if you as me. But then, I did spend most of this weekend working on it, so there’s that. This was a new fun way to write a script. It certainly helped that I chose a story idea I’ve been wanting to build into a feature length script for a long time.
So, now I finally have a draft of a feature length version of Backspin, which I have been promising Vik for about three years now. The fun thing about Script Frenzy is that, like NaNoWriMo, the only stress involved is getting the word count up, so I didn’t have to get hung up on those pesky little things like plot and logic. At least I have a first draft and a solid jumping off point when it comes time to start redrafting.
Big thanks to the folks at NaNoWriMo for hosting their version of a screenwriting contest, and of course to Milda Harris and Caroline Donahue over at literature life, who initially alerted me to Script Frenzy via their podcast, which is a fun listen as well.
Only four months till NaNoWroMo!
