Someone call Blog Protective Services
Yes, I've neglected you, my sweet little blog, for the sexier more demanding days of ScriptFrenzy.
When I took on the duties of organizing ML for the Austin Screnzies, I thought of last year, and how three or four of us knocked out our scripts in relative solitude.
I wanted to recruit *a little* and build it up slowly. I joined two screenwriting groups and met people. Got involved. Gently and non-invasively let people know about the little writing challenge where we write 100 pages of a script during April.
I HAD NO IDEA 50 PEOPLE WOULD SIGN UP!
So it's been a little crazy. Midnight writes. Coffee shops. The margarita write in is Saturday. We're writing by the lake Sunday. And I'm planning the big party at the end--oh, it will be so fun!
And I'm 57 pages into my own screenplay and having SUCH a good time.
So I'll return shortly, with many new friends to talk about and a FINISHED SCRIPT!
