Re: UP

I can't wait to see this. Neither can my son. We're so hooked on 3D at the moment.

Smile Re: What is it about a red pen on paper...

I've been writing as a journalist for a couple of decades now and have ALWAYS edited from hard copy. It's true. You see the detail that way and it's better for your eyes. I have red, green, yellow,...

Powka, I'm a journalist too and when I turned my hand to scriptwriting two years ago, I was shocked by how difficult I found it.
It's a very different discipline to journalism and it took a while...

Re: Show, don't tell - and the cheaters who cheat

Re: Your Favourite Love Story Of All Time and Why?

Brief Encounter.

Why? Because of the ordinariness of the story. And because it is so brilliantly written.

Re: I Don't want to be a Writer!

See, you said you want to 'write' this Stage Musical which must make you, like the rest of us, a wannabe writer. Stage Musical, play, TV series...all the same. All 'writing.'

Re: Story - Robert McKee

I know I should like McKee's book, but I found it hard going. It had graphs in it and that's a killer as far as I'm concerned. I have to get my eight-year-old son to explain how graphs work.
