Has anyone tried writing a screenplay? Or wants to?

I’ve written a script for a small adaptation of Taming of the Shrew, does that count?

@whalekeeper

Thanks! We probably will watch the BBC version. It’s Challenge 2 homework for me as well.

Has anyone tried writing a screenplay? Or wants to?

Sometimes I can give a kid an ‘adult’ responsibility and they snap out of crying. I don’t know if that would work here, Rae, but she’s trying. XD

@linus-smallprint

Yay! I was wondering when we would figure out what happened to Martha. I hope Eric gets captured though.

Barnes

“I was thinking we start down this corridor along the edge of the castle, and scour the place for clues and people,” Barnes told Percival.

The group waited a few minutes for Reid to calm his brother, who remained stubbornly curled up. He was still agitated.

Barnes was used to people who looked much younger than their…[Read more]

Of course you can do whatever you want, I’m playing the other side’s advocate so you have balanced reasons for whatever you do.

@linus-smallprint

(also, anyone else who is reading this, what do you think?)

You have a very sensible writer voice, with hints of humor and warmth. I think because of your semi-calm tone, you don’t seem like the kind of person who would write a super intense POV scene of shame for Eric, at least not until the arc’s climax.

And from what I can…[Read more]

@theshadow well…..

I’m nowhere near even a novice theologian or pastor or whatnot, so I’m really not qualified to answer. But honestly, the same logic kinda applies to “why did God make humans if he knew they’d sin?”

believe me, I’ve had some “Why—just why—did you make that, God?” moments myself. But I’m just a lowly human being, who am I t…[Read more]

@theshadow

I…have no idea, so I don’t think I’ll be much help. Have you asked your pastor?

@ellette-giselle

Fine. *pouts*

😂😂

@hybridlore

Idk,

what do you think, @linus-smallprint ?

I’m leaning toward making him older.

I mean, if he’s in the position of spiritual leader, he needs to be mature.

Hybridlore, pick three characters and put them in your signature, and give the rest back. Understand me? (Adrian doesn’t count because he’s dead. so there.)

lololol

@ellette-giselle

Joseph. Julian. Sabina.

Adrian… hehe. 🤪

@ellette-giselle

I think so. Are you sure he couldn’t be a church leader at seventeenish, if he’s one of the only believers in that town?

If that’s what you’re leaning towards, then go for it. Maybe pray about it and think a little longer if it’s a hugeee chance, though.

@hybridlore

He’s going to try to answer that call for Church leaders that came from the town. The monumental things are how on earth he would even have a chance of getting out of the Capital with the lockdown. The minute he can get out, Joseph and whoever else would be off. So, to have the door open while he’s seventeen would be silly if he…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Why does he have to become an elder? I think (if I’m understanding this right) if the important things are happening while he is seventeen, that’s where you want to be. Maybe he can be a part of the inner core group of the church without being an elder, sort of getting mentored by everyone else.

However, you’re right. If all t…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Um, I want him to be redeemed. lol.

For this I want to see him reacting in shame. If this is a big deal, I need to see it as a big deal.

Like, what is the most shameful or embarrassing thing that ever happened to you? (Don’t actually answer that. lol) Think how it made you feel, and then put yourself in the woods with some…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint   @hybridlore

Somebody help me!!!!!!! I’m going insane!!!!!!

Okay, not really, but I am stuck and I’m having one of those uninspiring days when words are just black spots on a white screen.

If that makes sense.

Ugh.

Okay, so I am going to do something very monumental in Joseph’s life………… except I’m stuck.

I d…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

I normally do that, but this time I forgot. :/

Do you think it is okay to leave him like this, or should I put something else in to temporarily satisfy the reader?

I think we might be sim-understanding one another.

I don’t think Eric was ashamed ENOUGH. Like, the words on the paper said he was ashamed, but he didn’t feel…[Read more]
