What a cutie! Can't pass up a chance to share a pup-pic. This is Murphy

I have a copy editor for typos... when I think a script is "done." For development notes, it's not what I'm after. Some readers like to call them out, and that's fine.

I thoroughly enjoy buzzing past the cars in the regular lanes. Sounds like we'll have to trade off sites.

I'm down for that as we find more folks here. My Nexus is ready!

Typically I do a few scenes to intro characters (to myself) then leap to the ending. Then I storyboard to ribbon the rest. I have character worksheets I use sometimes also.

It's very small and quiet with not a ton to do but it is beautiful.

Great food and wine in BC and I'm all in on both!

True. I'm hoping I learned how to better surround myself. More about "who" and not "how many"

Same here. I miss the volume of folks I had there but the vibe here is sooo worth starting again.

Thank you!!

My first script was a drama feature with a bit of a Shutter Island vibe. I opened it not long ago and it is NOT very good. I still do dramas, thrillers and horror but have added TV pilots and recently did my first adaptation.

...and we've got to get through the readers to get to the viewers.
comment in response to post
Thanks. That's my inclination as well. The balance of spoilers being okay for insiders but not in the story is always a pain. Readers are less patient than viewers 😃
comment in response to post
Agreed. But in the script itself. I have a character that is a hallucination in a recurring discussion and it's revealed to the audience at the end. For industry readers should I reveal it up front or leave it as it occurs in the film? Does a reader want the "direction" or have the film experience?

You're just trying to start trouble. (Way to go)

Hopefully. We need the gang to come quabble over sluglines, bolds, commas...

Murphy usually helps.
