Wasn’t the marathon writing I planned… more marathon movie screening for work. But outlined a new story and wrote the 1st 10 pages. Pushed a 2nd script into Act II. Wrapping research for a special project. Leaving for a work trip in 5 days, excited for plenty of airport & hotel writing. #scriptsky

One of the joys of my life was running the Disney World Marathon. At one point the path went backstage at Hollywood Studios, and I got to touch the ship used in the movie! A definite burst of adrenaline to help me finish the race.

And congrats on finishing your F it script. Feels empowering to wield absolute insanity on the page. Good luck with it!

Oh so true! Every script is a rather insane endeavor. I found I continually get notes about pace… I’m guilty of loving stories that area slow burn. So I’m writing that one story in my arsenal that felt like a shot of adrenaline to the heart from the start.
