One Hundred and Eighty Single Sentences

One Hundred and
Eighty Single Sentences

I’m not sure, but I think one hundred and eighty single sentences in one day is a new record. Whether it’s a new record or not, it’s a lot of single sentences. I am kind of surprised that I did that many, but I did. Once I started writing them, I couldn’t stop. The only thing that did stop me from writing was the rounds I did at work yesterday.

Don’t ask me how I did so many single sentences because I don’t know. All I do know is that I did eighteen in the second half of my Act Breakdown for the first Episode of my Water Wars scriptwriting project. I also did thirty-six single sentences for my Story Outline.

Add all that to the ninety single sentences I wrote for my Scene Outline, and I get one hundred and forty-four. Plus, another thirty-six for the Act Breakdown for Episode Two and I get one hundred and eighty single sentences total. That’s a lot of single sentences. Especially for me because I haven’t been getting that many lately.

If I was lucky, I would have gotten about half that many single sentences in one day. Of course, that’s what I have done at home. These one hundred and eighty I did at work yesterday. Maybe about half is the best I can do when I’m not at work. At least I hope that it is.

After today, I will know if yesterday was a fluke or if I will be doing about one hundred and eighty every day I’m at work. I hope I can do that many single sentences today, but I’m not going to count on it until it happens. After all, things like this have happened before. And it didn’t turn out too well for me.

I only have one hundred and forty-four single sentences to write today to finish writing Episode Two. If it’s anything like yesterday, I shouldn’t have any problems getting that many written. The big question is will I be able to start writing Episode Three? I should be able to do that.

Then again, I may not be able to write that many single sentences. It may depends on what happens at work today. I don’t have to worry about losing my privileges or losing this post. If that was going to happen, it would have been done yesterday. What I don’t know about is what may happen. Nothing should happen, but that doesn’t mean it won’t.

As far as I know, nothing unusual is going to happen at work today. If it doesn’t, I should be able to get the one hundred and forty-four single sentences written today to end Episode Two. I may even be able to start Episode Three too. Will I get another thirty-six, though?
