Tuesday Talkback - One month left
Tomorrow is the start of December. That means there's just one month left in 2010.
So how many of you haven't met your writing goals this year?
I'd write more, but I have a month to finish a TV pilot.
I wrote about 20 short radio scripts for my production company, but my writing partner and I still never finished our feature screenplay. But I consider it a win.
I'm barely at page 30 of the movie script I'm supposed to finish in 50 days. I can do it easily, if I quit my job.
ReplyDeleteFinished 2 good scripts and 1 good pilot...
ReplyDeleteExploited connections for submission solicitation from a major...
I'd say I'm 50% happy with my output/progress.
H
...but I DID get over 300 hits for my stupid patriots song/video on youtube...so that was a surprise!
ReplyDeleteI wrote all the news I had to write & will write some more :)
ReplyDeleteI finished three screenplays this year. Met my quota.
ReplyDeleteWorld of Warcraft ate my life.
ReplyDeleteFinished two scripts this year :)
ReplyDeleteI promised myself in October that I'd finish my feature script by Christmas, and hopefully my TV pilot too.
ReplyDeleteThe feature needs another solid draft and polish and the TV script needs a big overhaul draft.
So...um, a hopeful maybe?
If I can finish a spec I've been trying to write for the past month before December 31, I'll be content with my output this year.
ReplyDeleteYet, I'm never happy with the outline every log line has provided, so once again, it's back to the beginning.
A TV Spec that is...
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, I'm excited with what I have planned for 2011 (or right after I finish this godforsaken TV spec!)
