Only My Scriptwriting

About Forty-Five Minutes

About Forty-Five Minutes

About forty-five minutes to write this blog entry before I miss another blogging day, and I don’t want to do that. So, this will probably be a short blog entry today. It’s not because I only got one hundred and three sentences written today, but because of the time I have left until midnight.

That’s right, I only got one hundred and three sentences written today for my Water Wars scriptwriting project. That is the bad news. The good news is that I only had about four hours to work on it today because of what my brother and I needed to accomplish today.

That means I got about twenty-five sentences written each hour I had to work on this project, or a little over two minutes for each sentence, or about five paragraphs every hour. That’s very good writing for me. After all, I usually get about three or four paragraphs written every hour.

What does that mean for this project? It means that I have written seventy-five sentences to end the Scene Outline for Episode Three, and the first twenty-eight sentences for the Story Outline for Episode Four of this project. That’s right, I’m almost done with this project.

I only have fourteen sentences before I finish writing the Story Outline for Episode Four of my Water Wars television series. After I finish the Story Outline, I will start working on the Scene Outline for this episode, aka one hundred and fifty more sentences, before I finish this project.

Will I get these one hundred and sixty-four sentences written tomorrow? No, I won’t get that many written tomorrow. If I’m lucky, I may get about half of them written, maybe about two-thirds or three-fourths, but I know that I won’t get all of them written tomorrow.

How many sentences will I need to write on Thursday before I finish this episode and the sentences for this project? I don’t know the answer to that question. It depends on how much time I have to work on this project tomorrow. My best guess is that it will be about fifty to seventy-five.

This didn’t turn out to be one of my short blog entries after all. It’s not one of my longer blog entries, but it’s not one of my short ones either. It is probably closer to one of my longer ones than it is to my short ones. After all, this one goes into my second page, barely.
