Write a Screen Play

It should be something funny and real and breathtakingly original and moving. One of these days. In the meantime, I’ll be writing an hour a day.

I have a idea i think that can work i would have to do some research

i have always wanted to write a screen play, but I just dont have the courage to get started. It;s almost too overwhelming. I wish I could get up the courage and jump right in, but I dont know how to get started.

I would first like to have the time to read a book on how to write a screen play and then have time to actually write it. Then I would like to learn how to submitt it and then mabey write about my life and become rich! It’s a plan.

Currently under developement, first scene is a house on fire, you see a man panicing through the blazed house looking for someone. He sees a girl on the floor unconscious, he picks her up and fights through the heat and collapsing house. Moments later he finds himself outside carring the girl and falls under his own feet and blacksout. It goes dark, he wakes up from his own bed in a massive panic, confused and disoriented. Looks around and sighs under his own breathe…

Currently a quarter of the way through, I hope to get it published or even filmed!!!

Definitely. Just do it.

I did the background research on how screen plays differ from a novel. Build out an idea for a story (although I admit I don’t have an ending). I even went the route of Tom Clancy and developed “mock” resumes for each of the main characters so they’d stay true to form. But alas, as I started to write I couldn’t get past the first several pages. I found myself editing every sentence dozens of times, if not hundreds of times. And then I just gave up.
