My transposition of my novel is currently 273 pages. The maximum it should ever be is 120. Therefore it is now more than twice as long as it can be. There are currently 312 scenes of which I have written all but 8.  I am therefore 97.4% done with this part of the process. I actually think the whittlin...

Belle had a bit too much sea water yesterday, which meant that when we retired at 2am  (with a solid 88% of the scenes of the novel now screenplay written), she woke me at 4 am to go outside. Her method of doing this is to sit upright in bed and basically smile at me.  It’s a little unclear if she ne...

I can really on focus only what’s happening at DOWNTON ABBEY (and secondarily) in the world of my screenplay. I have another 30 minutes of the 1st season finale to watch and it’s a MIRACLE I can break away to do anything else. Why is this show so amazing?  [According to Wikipedia, it R...

Thursday was a total recovery day (from my empathetic perspective) from the Goddess Collective event. Susan and my beach walk involved incredibly intense weather and two extended dog encounters with a Vizsla named Tosca and a Labradoodle named Joey, both of whom would not leave Belle and her magical stick ...

Yesterday, Susan spoke at the Goddess Collective in Oakland.  She was (as always) beyond amazing, inspiring, and nourishing –– but today Belle and I are exhausted from our appreciation level.   [Our friend Amy Ahlers spoke right before her and was also sensational.] First, the Go...

Well — it’s not brilliant YET (my script, that is) but in days, mere days, it will be. Suddenly it was 2 am last night and I’d hit a solid 75% or more of the script at 172 pages and I just had to stop.  I calculate we’ve only another 30-40 pages to go before the massive condens...

Intensely moody today, trying to reconcile the work of David Neagle and all my other LOA stuff about just coming into alignment. David wants me to acknowledge all my resistance and then realize it’s more or less subconscious sabotage and then take action steps to demonstrate I’m no longer bound...

Perhaps my shortest blog entry given that I’ve been writing all day. The script is now 70% done (or more) and 135 pages, meaning it’ll be around 200 and then I’ll cut 80. I’ve accepted that it’s far wiser to just TRANSPOSE mountains of dialogue and monologue and then trim then...

      And by that I mean that I am going to town on the screenplay. David Neagle wants me engaged in “Miracle Generating Activities” so here’s my track record for the day. Yesterday at 8:30 pm:  160 index cards (in Final Draft Pro) and wrote 41 of those scenes equally ...
