Re-Write-O-Rama: Day 21

Re-Write-O-Rama: Day 21.

January 1: Type FADE IN / The Beginning.
January 31: Type FADE OUT / The End.

31 days. 1 script. Movie script. TV script. Whatever.

Goal: Rewrite an existing draft.

I’m doing it with a Zero Draft I knocked out in November. You’re invited to join me on your own script.

NOTE: If you want to use the month to prep a story or write a zero draft, that’s fine. The point is for you (and me) to use Re-Write-O-Rama to kick off 2016 with a bang and make progress on a script!

To learn everything you need to know about the Re-Write-O-Rama: Winter 2016 Challenge, go here.

You may download a calendar here or here to track your progress.

Join the conversation in Comments here, Twitter, and the Zero Draft Facebook Group (600 members) for a chance to win a daily prize: The Hecht Award!

Today’s Writing Quote

Each scene must be a drama in itself.
The whole picture must be made up of a series of small dramas.
 — Jeanie Macpherson

Today’s Inspirational Video

If you have a writing quote appropriate for the Re-Write-O-Rama challenge, post to Comments here, Twitter (#RW31SCRIPT), or in the Zero Draft Facebook Group.

If you have a video to inspire or perhaps give us a laugh, same thing.

But here’s the biggie: Let’s support each other!

How many pages did you rewrite in the last 24 hours? How are you feeling about your story? Are you loving or hating your rewriting process? Did you have a good day or a bad day? Do you have any questions about your writing process? Ready to give a virtual hug… or maybe you need one.

Use Go Into The Story, Twitter, or Facebook to bolster your creative efforts. And remember: Every day I’ll be handing out the coveted Hecht Award to the best Comment, Tweet, or Facebook post.

Hopefully we’ll get a lot of great photoshops like we did with the Zero Draft Thirty Challenge.

Finally each day in January, I’ll be dishing out a special batch of Re-Write-O-Rama flavored creative juju for everyone who posts.

Don’t fit in. Be an outlaw. Write like hell and give the world the benefit of your unique voice!
