Brilliant! :rofl:

I liked it. Good job. I'm right next door to you, BTW, in Cypress. You, me, and Indiebudget (Eugene) should collaborate on something. :cheers:

Just chiming in from the Peanut Gallery. All very entertaining. :lol: :cheers:

There is no fixed number. As many as it takes. But at some point, you need to step away from it and declare it done. Everytime I read something I write, I can see ways to make it different. But different isn't always better. So I'll change it, not like it, change it again and just keep...

Wow. That's powerful. Can't say that I see anything Christmas-y in it, though. It's more of a profound reminder that freedom isn't free. And that peace on Earth, goodwill to men is a pipe dream. I see the irony.

Clap on. Clap off. Clap on, clap off, the Clapper. . . . . . . Sorry, I was bored. Badum bum.

Oh, my bad. It was John who found it. :lol: My ADD is showing.... Breaking it down... John goes to work, finds a winning lottery ticket in the trash, rushes out and buys time with a prostitute who changes his outlook on life. Is that the gist of it?

Dialogue is too on the nose. People don't really talk like that, saying exactly what's on their mind. And there's talking the plot, characters saying exactly what happened or is going to happen. Show, don't tell. I'm not really sure what you're were trying to accomplish overall. John's...

Woah. Okay, I will keep reading, but the very first slugline is missing the location. And you established an INT. (interior) setting, but your character is walking to work at the north end of a market. It probably should be (or similar): EXT. NORTH END MARKET - EARLY MORNING And then when...

Well, to get rid of the narrator (if that's your goal), use visual cues that something's different - like the Tomato patch where all but one bush is covered in weeds or dead. And actually show him finding the wand instead of the narrator talking about it. Show the problems people are having...

Be sure to film it!

So how goes the shoot? You're probably run ragged by now, huh? :) I was slammed last couple of days at work, but I'd love to make it out over the weekend. I hope all is well so far. :cheers:

Well, I wish there were a face-to-face story to go with it. It's my dream to meet every one of them and pick their brains. I found it in a specialty memorabilia store in Toronto, Canada. Had it museum quality framed when I got it back to the States. Definitely my pride and joy. I've never...

Man, and I have a funny concept in mind for a yuletide short. Problem is, no time to gather the necessary participants let alone shoot and edit the thing. Oh, well. Maybe next year. A little more advanced notice for us busy bodied procrastinators. :)

I haven't gotten around to finish reading it yet. Go figure. I keep picking up the book next to it instead when I should be picking up my laptop and writing. :lol:

I am really sorry to hear that. :(

Thanks. :) Yes, that's precisely why I added this last year. :D
