@Emmacox Never really written a “grown up” story before - it’s always been which don’t really benefit from pantsing. I figured that once the story is complete then I can convert it later, assuming it’s any good anyway.😁

and . They can't and shouldn't try to bring a to the screen as written. That might please the author and some ppl who read the . Movies aim for a much larger audience. Authors get to satisfy themselves writing the . I can think of few examples write good of their work.

Well, all of the wins for EEAAO gives me hope that perhaps more offbeat screenplays will get eyes on them in the future!

New logline--thoughts?

DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE

Evangeline Slote, an unholy amalgam of Elizabeth Taylor and Sarah Palin, is the matriarch of a family of con artists who specialize in identity theft. When her alcoholic husband Warren is felled by a massive heart attack, she and her unnaturally devoted son Devin concoct a desperate scheme to end all schemes—which may require the elimination of an elderly and very rich socialite to complete.

@lumenarcanum Nice! When you say "experimental forms" are you referring to poetry performance art or something else? My bio states that I'm a , which is true, but my deepest love is reserved for . I've also written trad-pub , (published in traditional & online journals) & (as-yet-unpublished) . Like many creatives, I create in other art forms aside from writing, as shown in my bio or toots for a small taste.🤣

Oscar nominated Screenplays 2022-2023

This time of year is great for anyone interested in getting hold of screenplays. All of the films nominated for an Oscar release a copy.

I've collected links to the contenders for best original and adapted .

Download them while you can cause the links don't always last past awards season.

A good bit of progress today (and other progress too)

A first draft of Chapter 1 of my novel is written. Started chapter 2

I've started outlining a 30 minute pilot. I really prefer to just go in writing the script but this time I'm doing it this way (since most places like to have an outline)

Some podcast guests contacted and started to get recording dates

Not bad

Alright! I figured out the broad strokes of a 30 min comedy about an assassin that has to go into hiding and become the single mother to 3 assassin trainees.

Working title is - The Hitmens
or as Celine likes to call it - Angela's Ash-assins

I got a DM about a reply I made on here - there are minimal rules when it comes to a - always check with where you're sending (agent, production company, open call contest) and follow their guidelines. My example isn't the standard. BLOG: gunsguysyaoi.blog/2023/01/13/s

I really need to get stuck into this pilot if I want to get it written by the end of a January deadline

BUT

I just found a very old computer game that I thought I'd never find again so I have a duty to play it all weekend, right?

Until today, the great majority of podcasts intended for writers in general and screenwriters in particular, started well and slowly deteriorated into private humor of the presenter... frustrating...🤷🏾‍♂️
I would very much like to hear from someone a recommendation for a quality podcast that continues to have added value for screenwriters episode after episode.🙏🏽
