Yesterday was Scriptwriting, Today is My WDC Short Story

Yesterday was Scriptwriting, Today is My WDC Short Story

Writing my Outlines and Treatments by hand for my Water Wars scriptwriting project is going to be a lot harder than I thought. That is mostly my fault, though. I have a specific number of lines that are going to be in my Outline and Treatment paragraphs. And I don’t know how to do that by hand. I think that I have it based on the number of spaces per line and the number of characters per handwritten lines. But I don’t know if they are correct or not.

I haven’t transferred my handwritten paragraphs to my Word document yet. Once I transfer the ten paragraphs that I wrote yesterday at work, I will know if my calculations are correct. That’s right, I just wrote that I only did the Teaser Act One and Act one paragraphs for my Water Wars Outline yesterday at work. I would like to blame work for not doing more of them. But I can’t do that.

Why can’t I blame work? It’s usually the reason why I don’t get more of my writing done. It’s not this time. It was a very slow day at work yesterday. In fact, it was slower than it usually is for a Sunday. It’s usually very slow on Sunday. At least it has been for the last few weeks. But yesterday it seemed a whole lot slower than usual.

So, why didn’t I get more written? It’s because I must do it by hand. If what I what to write doesn’t feel right for one reason or another on my laptop I can erase what doesn’t work so easily. But when you are handwriting it you need to erase it with an eraser. That’s why I only did ten Outline paragraphs yesterday.

That was the bad news about yesterday. Now for the bad news for today. It was a typical Monday day off. I didn’t home from doing what needed to be done until almost dinner time. So, I haven’t been able to work on any of my WDC Short Story for this month. In fact, I haven’t even had the chance to open my laptop to do this Blog entry until a little bit ago.

Once I get this Blog entry finished, I plan on working on my WDC Short Story. I just don’t know how far I will get with it. I would like to get at least three more sections of it done before I go to sleep tonight. That’s only about six hundred words. But I don’t know if I can do it. I’m still very tired from the lack of sleep I have gotten the last few nights. I don’t know if I’m going to be able to do that or not. But I’m going to try to do as many of it as I can.

I might be able to do it. Even though I’m still very tired and am fighting sleep with this Blog entry. I have already turned off my television to do this Blog. And I’m going to keep it off to do my WDC Short Story. I usually write a lot better and faster if I don’t have the television on. Only time will tell if that’s true or not today.

What I don’t get done today I should be able to do tomorrow. It all depends on what we are doing tomorrow. I don’t think that we need to do anything. But I might be wrong. If I don’t get it done during the day tomorrow, I will stay up tomorrow night to get it done and created. I only have until the end of this week to finish it. And since I can’t write it at work anymore I really need to get it done tomorrow or tomorrow night.
