The Screenwriter’s Journal – April 2021

After a more than sucessful triumph in February, I slipped in March. Somehow I knew exactly what to change in my story, but didn’t have the slightest clue how to implement it. Sure, I allowed myself and I’m perfectly contempt that I intentionally took a few days off after finishing the first draft, then a few days turned into almost two weeks.

On the bright side, I did manage to write a short horror script. Only about 4-5 pages in length, but at least I did something in those otherwise wasted two weeks writingwise. I’ve also gathered a couple more ideas, reflected on ideal casting and overall feel this draft will be better than the last. Just so you folk have something to refer to this as, let’s refer to this as the “Shia LaBeouf Project”, the actor I think would best suit the stories main character.

So overall, yeah this wasn’t a great month. Feel free to slam me for it in the comments section.
