Only My Scriptwriting

Only Seven Today

Only Seven Today

Today has not been a typical Thursday. My brother and I had so much to do that I only had about an hour and a half to work on Part Two of the paragraph Scene Outline for my Water War scriptwriting project. Unfortunately, all I could get written today on this project was seven paragraphs. And two of them were Establishing Shots.

The only good thing that happened to me today was that I only needed five paragraphs to end Act Four of my Movie Introduction for this television series. Unfortunately, it took me about an hour to finish writing these five paragraphs. That means I only had about a half hour to write the two Tag Act Establishing Shots.

At first, I thought about not writing these Establishing Shots. After all, I only had a half hour. I figured if I got one or two more numeric scene paragraphs I would be lucky. And I didn’t want to end like that today. True, I would have gotten one or two more paragraphs written today. But it wasn’t worth me doing that.

It’s better that I start tomorrow from Scene One of the Tag Act for this Scene Outline. After all, I don’t think I will have any more Establishing Shots for this Act. So, starting with Scene One will be better for me than starting with my first two Establishing Shots or from where I left off today. At least that’s what I think.

Whether it’s a good way of doing this or not, that is the decision I have made today. Hopefully, I will do three or four times better tomorrow. I would be happy to do two times better than today. But three or four times is what I would like to do. Hopefully, I can do that. But I’m not going to count on anything until it happens.

After all, I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. As far as I know, my brother and I don’t have anything major we need to get done in the next few days. But I have thought that before and I have been wrong. Hopefully, if we do have some things to do over the next few days, it won’t take us most of the day to do them.

If my brother and I don’t have too much that we need to get done tomorrow and beyond, I should be able to get the Tag Act of Part One of my Water Wars scriptwriting project done in the next day or two. In other words, I will have my Movie Introduction for this television series done and I can start working on the next four individual episodes.

No matter how I look at it, I should be starting Episode One, Some of the Adults, in the next few days. It may not be tomorrow or Saturday. But it should be Sunday. The only way it wouldn’t be by Sunday is if I only get ten numeric scenes written over the next three days. I don’t think that will happen. It should be about fifteen at least.
