Only My Scriptwriting

Seventy-Two Single Sentences

Seventy-Two Single Sentences

That’s all I needed to write today, just seventy-two single sentences. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the time to write them. But I barely got them written before I started writing this blog entry for today. It wasn’t easy to do, but I did write them. Unfortunately, that’s all I got written today for my Water Wars scriptwriting project.

Why didn’t I get more written today? What is the usual reason I don’t get more written in a day? It’s because of what my brother and I needed to get done that day. This was one of those day. But it wasn’t a typical day, though. We had to return to our old place, and it took us longer than we expected before we could return to our new place.

I was hoping we would return to our new place by the middle of the afternoon. We didn’t quite get there. It was toward the end of the afternoon before we returned. As a result, I only had a few hours to finish writing my single sentence Act Breakdowns for this project. Unfortunately, those few hours got interrupted again.

My brother and I still have some things we need to do after returning from our old place. It didn’t take us too long to do them. But it did cut into my time to finish these Act Breakdowns. Instead of about four hours to work on this project, I only had around three hours to write them. That equals about twenty-four per hour or four Acts.

After I returned from my old place, I started working on the last two Act Breakdowns. I was interrupted about an hour later by what my brother and I still needed to do today. Luckily, it only took us around an hour to get what we needed done. Unfortunately, that only left me about two hours to finish writing these Act Breakdowns.

Tomorrow, I will start working on my single-sentence Story Outlines. With fifty-four single sentences for each Part or Episode, I will need to get three done tomorrow to equal the number of sentences I have been getting lately. That number is one hundred and forty-four. If I get these three done, they will equal one hundred and sixty-two.

Will I get that many single sentences written tomorrow? It depends on what my brother and I need to do tomorrow. I’m sure we will need to do a few things. I only hope it won’t take the whole day to do them. If it doesn’t take too long, I should be able to get the two Parts that make up my Movie Introduction for this television series.

Of course, I would like it to be at least three or four Parts or Episodes. But I may be lucky, I may if it’s the two Part Movie Introduction. I don’t think it will be that low, though. No matter how much my brother and I need to do tomorrow, I should have plenty of time to do at least one hundred and four single sentences tomorrow.

Using the Act Breakdowns, I shouldn’t have too many problems writing my single-sentence Story Outlines. After all, it’s only three more single sentences per Act for each Part or Episode. Those extra single sentences are for Chaad, Suuri, and Hoolle. They have two single sentences per Act because they have double the scenes in each Act.
