The First Week - Screenplay Update

Posted in Screenplay at 5:59 pm by Administrator

This is just a quick post to fill you in on how the screenplay is coming along.  As of last night I have completed 21 pages.  I am writing approximately three pages a night and should finish the first act this weekend. 

All in all I think it is coming along nicely.  I have introduced both my female and male Heroes (Rose and Pandemonium) and I have established the Ordinary World (Littleton, a small university town on the brink of economic collapse).  I also have a nicely developed Mentor character (Mrs. Anna MacMillian). 

Tonight I need to work on developing and weaving in a Villain.  I also need to add some dialogue to a scene where Mrs. MacMillian gives Rose a Gift, which will be important to later plot development. 

The hardest task so far has been coming up with a working title for the screenplay.  I started out with the “Wanderers”, but came up with “Where the Wild Rose Blooms” this morning during my walk.

That’s all for now.
