Sometimes being to swift tricks me into thinking I've got something then I get to the end and wind up trashing the whole thing...but then sometimes I pull out that trashed thing and wind up rewriting into something largely solid. But mostly, it stays trashed.<br />My Pushing Daisies spec for one.mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17017087573156252234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-47258437222525196222009-04-14T20:58:00.000-07:002009-04-14T20:58:00.000-07:00I don't remember that post.

Then, I got educated/burdened with theory and I slowed way down. Sometimes (always) I wish I could find my first three screenplays- they were either genius or crap. <br />The main thing is to be READY for it to strike. Last night, after some, uh, quality time -actually, kind of right in the middle of quality time- I was hit blam with where to insert some exposition. I got up after a few minutes of cuddling and made notes. <br />Damn right I'm going anonymous this time!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-58881783856651733652009-04-14T17:55:00.000-07:002009-04-14T17:55:00.000-07:00I wish Nicholl happened two or three times a year....I wish Nicholl happened two or three times a year.
