I finished the major overhaul of Ozark Mile and now I’m in the touch-up phase. Act I is about as good as it’s going to get#–I like it, it makes me giggle, and I’m not afraid to show it to people. I couldn’t really ask for more than that.
As with most screenwriters, my issues are in Act II. I’ve rehashed some major plot elements and retooled four characters, creating another character (Pastor Mike) in the process. I’m really happy with the direction I’m headed, but it means going back to outlining and working out plot elements that I’ve already worked on.
Hopefully, as I get better, there won’t be such a need for a page one rewrite#–I’ve learned so much over the last year that what I’ve written in the past just screams at me "what were you thinking?"
The progress bar as actually receded#–but keep in mind it went up to 100% before it dropped back down to 15%.
If you need someone to read a copy, you know where to find me.
I am interested to see how Ozark Mile is going to turn out. (I’m sure you are too.) Actually, I don’t know much about it other than the fact that it’s another movie you’re writing? Anyway, I hope everything is going well for you in NY. I hear Holland is doing something on a cruise ship around Manhattan? I hope that is going well for her. Have a great week.
Hey stranger. I didn’t know what the last Ozark Mile was about so I don’t think I’ll even know what this one is about. Hm…
I want to read it!
