Script Frenzy Revisit
It's the little things that make you happy. Like a girlfriend waking you up one Saturday morning ago to show you the USB stick she found buried deep in a pile of junk under the stairs.
Now that I've got it back I thought I'd show you my effort from this year's Script Frenzy. I'd originally set out to write three separate stories totally 100 pages, but only ended up getting one out. An episode of Heroes set in an alternative season three.
About halfway through I started getting a bit worried about how I was portraying some of the characters. After seeing how badly they're all being portrayed in the real season three I'm happy I at least managed to keep them consistent.
Had I read a few scripts before hand I would've seen that most scripts are bulked up with large blocks of notes from the writer(s) to whoever is directing the piece of distraction. Everything from what colour a car should be to the number of clouds in the sky. My script doesn't have a lot of that, so comes off a bit anorexic. Lesson learned for next year I guess.
Have a read of the script and tell me what you think. Any comments and/or criticisms are welcome (but keep it constructive, please).

so...you were writing this during the writers strike???????
I will have to have a read once I'm done with Rising Stars.

Nah. The Writers Strike ended about two months before Script Frenzy started. Heroes came back on the air around September.
