Teenage me: plans a fantasy trilogy called Orc Army, draws some maps, writes 87 pages.
Adult me: sends off a full draft of book one of a fantasy trilogy that's actually going to be published.

To everyone who claims there’s a screenwriting rule asserting we can’t include so-called ‘unfilmables’ in scene description, read this! Page One of the script for "Logan" (2017). https://t.co/Ewe4LuZKuN #movies#scriptchat
@GoIntoTheStory It's particularly restrictive for writers trying to sell a script, which isn't a 'shooting script' at that stage, so surely the intention should also be to make it an enjoyable reading experience. Best line I heard from an exec was 'if the script is good, the rules don't matter'.
If, like me, you thought BBC's 'Time' was excellent, you'll be pleased to hear the scripts for all 3 eps are available now.
