@MikeBoaks You got that one right!

@Stevenla1111 So I understand, the guy who got electrocuted is the guy who appears on the screen and says hello. Right?

@DrewMcWeeny What's a video store?

[Frank Freudberg @FrankFreudberg]

@EmmaDugan_12 Fantastic. Make it happen.

GET INSIDE THE MIND OF A MASS MURDERER

Smoking and vaping killed Martin Muntor's wife. And when he got lung cancer from second-hand smoke, he went off the deep end.

Muntor vows to destroy Big Tobacco - and he knows how to do it.

Imagine yourself rooting for a madman. You will.

My friend: "Hey! How's your screenplay coming?"

Me: "Great! It's definitely on track!"

I just finished writing an outline for a feature. Worked on it practically daily for 11 months. #screenwriters #screenwriting #screenplay #filmmaking #filmmakers #writing #screenplays #scriptwriting #film #filmmaker #script #writingcommunity #indiefilm #writer #screenwritingtips

Same advice applies to your 30th draft.

Anyone attending American Film Market 2021?

[Frank Freudberg @FrankFreudberg]

Word.

[C. Robert Cargill @Massawyrm]

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.

An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.

So finish the thing.

@ShaunaBeeBee Fool me once ...

[Frank Freudberg @FrankFreudberg]

I just spent 45 minutes trying to delete an errant period in a line of action in my script. Nothing I did could get rid of it. I went to a final draft forum to see if anyone could help me. No one could. Tried everything I could think of.

Turns out it was a speck on my monitor.

[Frank Freudberg @FrankFreudberg]

@ShaunaBeeBee First it was a period on my screen, and now there's a line of on-the-nose dialogue there. I didn't do that either.

[Frank Freudberg @FrankFreudberg]

@ImALKatz @sparky7u Happy to accommodate: it's not still there.

[Frank Freudberg @FrankFreudberg]

I'm no fan of script formatting books, or story structure books - and this list has many on it.

Others on the list have been invaluable for whatever growth as a write I've had.

@LanaFilmNoir That's what she should have said.
