Only My Scriptwriting

Despite It Being Only a Few Hours

Despite It Being
Only a Few Hours

This Tuesday is supposed to be the day we finish moving from our old place to our new place. Unfortunately, we have set up to do this at least three times before this. Each time something has come up to stop us from doing it. Mostly, it was a lack of money. But there have been other reasons too. Hopefully, it will happen this time.

I doubt I will get any writing done on my projects this Tuesday. After all, it will probably be an all-day move this Tuesday. If I’m lucky, I may get back in time to write my latest blog entry for that day. I’m not even going to count on that until it happens.

The next three days I’m not sure about. Since the next two days are the weekend, I don’t think my brother and I have too much we need to do those days. If that’s true, I should be able to get quite a bit of writing done on my Water Wars scriptwriting project. As far as I know, my brother and I have nothing we need to do this weekend.

Unfortunately, I have thought that numerous times before, and have been wrong about them. So, I won’t count on this not happening again until it doesn’t. I’m hoping it won’t happen again. But because of my previous experiences with it, I can’t count on it not happening this time too.

Monday is a different story, no pun intended. Since Monday is part of the weekdays, my brother and I could have some things we need to accomplish on Monday. I don’t think we need to do anything on Monday. At least I hope we don’t. If that’s true, hopefully, I will get quite a bit of writing done on the Part One Scene Outline for this project.

Why am I writing about the next three days? What about today? It’s not what everyone may think it is. I only had a few hours today to work on this project. But it wasn’t as bad as it could have been. After all, I did write fifteen single paragraphs for this Scene Outline.

Unfortunately, five of those fifteen single paragraphs were Establishing Shots. Three to introduce three new locations for my six main characters, two were introductions for the current storylines, and two were flashbacks for those current storylines. Both flashbacks were an update from the Teaser Act of Part One of this project.

Fifteen single paragraphs in one day isn’t too bad. At least it’s not for me. After all, fifteen to twenty single paragraphs are about my average for a day. If I can continue to do that I will be happy. Especially, if I only have a few hours in that day to write them.
