Ok, this is kind of cheating, but I made some progress! (i.e. My friend Steve just wrote a treatment of my screenplay & gave me a lot of feedback!) I'm trying to decide now whether to flesh it out and add about 50 pgs to make it a feature length script (it's only about 50 now), or cut out some subplots and make it a TV pilot.
I don't want to write any details about it on here, because I'm paranoid someone will steal my baby. But Nicole if you have any thoughts, email me? I know you know the script by heart ;) Mallie, what do you think? Erin, I know you are already inundated w/ my fiction, so you're off the hook, but maybe one day you'll read it. Speaking of which, send me some of your work to read, Little Miss Makeup!
I just had to post this because I am so excited. Sometimes in order to get something done, someone else needs to get something done. So procrastination, in my life, often involves Failing to Ask People for Help. But this time I asked, and Steve did me a huge favor. But I must also take this moment to honor the Pay It Forward Method (I heavily edited a script Steve & my brother wrote last year, and now Steve has returned the favor). Generosity will be rewarded. And if it's not, that's okay too, because it makes your soul lovelier!

SO fun! I already thought it was great, so I don't have anything to add. I think you should add 50 pages and make it full length. In my opinion it would make a better movie than a TV show.
ReplyDeleteIf we're talking about the one I THINK we're talking about... I still think it could be an excellent show in the vein of Parks & Rec, the Office, etc. I'd be happy to read it again; you know I haven't read it in 5 years...!
