NaScreeWriMo - Day Three
Nov. 3rd, 2010 10:07 pmSometimes I wish I could Ctrl-Z real life. I was blowing out the candle I had lit and picked up the holder to bring it to me, instead of leaning up to it. The candle tilted, and I spilled melted wax on my keyboard and desk. Ctrl-Z! Undo! Undo!
So I finished Sequence One today! I divide a screenplay into eight sequences, each about 10-15 pages long; Act One is S1-2, Act Two is S3-6, and Act Three is S7-8. It helps me keep track of structure, and it breaks a draft down into more manageable chunks. So this installment takes us up to the inciting incident, or catalyst. Whee!
