As promised the key turns on the stroke of midnight.
Moth wings flutter in the shadows and under my skin.
Chalk symbols, delicate as children’s fingers, lead me over raw red concrete to a cold candle.

A note - “Light Me”

In its smoke…
Lichen. Placenta.
Cinnamon lipgloss.

How?
How could she know?

I start by writing Act 2 first, then Act 3, and write Act 1 last ☺️

For example, if I was writing Raiders of the Lost Ark I’d start with Indy & Marion in Cairo.

This means you’re writing Act 2 with more energy, and not rewriting Act 1 nearly as much.

Whenever I read scripts that have CUT TO between every scene I can’t help but whisper to myself “Your page count could be so much lower…”

I do use MATCH CUT at least once or twice a script 🙃

It reminds my of an all time favourite I read:
FADE ON IN MOTHERFUCKER

I mean, you just had to keep reading …
