Writing Bug, Film Festival

M in da house!

I have that writing bug again, and have totally dug deep into my third draft of "Great Water". I have changed some key elements and have definately dug deeper into the personalities of the protagonist. I am greatly excited by this.

Also, I just got notice that I will be in a position to volunteer at the Cleveland International Film Festival. K. is also going to do this as well.

I am excited that this is going to happen, because not only are we going to volunteer, but we are going to be at the parties, the screenings and the mini classes that they are going to have.

And we are going to write about it all HERE!

Speaking of Film Festivals, The Cleveland Film Festival is CALLING FOR ENTRIES to its 2008 fest.

The deadline is November 30, 2007 and you can download and entry form here.

The screenwriting course is almost over, and through that class, our professor offered to make us PAs during the production of her television pilot. We're really excited and can't wait to help her out!

We'll post around November when everything gets started.

Reviews of The Good Book

K here.

I've gotten two reviews of The Good Book so far, and they've been really positive. Both reviews told me that I need to focus on the interactions between Dane and Diana, which I figured they would.

I'm going to wait to do a second draft on The Good Book until after NanoWrimo and after I've finished my portfolio for the MA Creative Writing program I'm trying to get into.

Hopefully that won't take too long, but it will be at least a month and a half. Ah, the life of a writer.

Let the Writing Begin!

K here.

I've convinced Meekie to finish editing her 2nd draft of Sons of Ham--which is an impressive screenplay, BTW--and I'm going to work on Heart of Wolf, which I'm really excited about.

I was supposed to do the outline last Saturday, but, as usual, I procrastinated my way out of that one. Not to worry--I'm pretty sure I can pump out a well-formed outline tonight, and be up and running by tomorrow afternoon.

Such are the joys of being a college student who doesn't go to class.
