What the heck is going on? You may ask. Well, for those of you that have not been keeping tabs on my Script Frenzy writing stats *tsk tsk!* I have won Script Frenzy. As of yesterday. April 19th, I finished Script Frenzy. Guess how many pages I have? 119. Yep. 119 pages of pure epic awesomeness.
This last week has been full of exhaustion, self-loathing, redbull and monster. But, apparently, also full of pages flying by and my characters writing the story for me. Honestly, I had to go back and read what I had written, because I don't remember what I wrote, and I gotta say, that is pretty epic. I love it when my brain shuts off and the characters guide my fingers across this keyboard and a story evolves. Reading back, it's definitely not what I would have written if my brain had been functioning properly, but hey, it's a story that I am strangely proud to call my own.
Oddly enough, I'm surprised to find that my characters did go all psychotic on the step-mother. I had envisioned her death many many times, because she is just such a... well, a bitch. She turned out meaner than I ever intended, and while in my head I've already casted this play with people I know would fit the parts, and the person I initially casted for the step-mother is actually a very awesome and sweet woman, and is the most amazing actress I've seen, so I knew she could pull off being a little mean. I've seen her be a bitch on stage, and I gotta say, it's scary. So I thought that she'd be great, but with how plain evil this character is, I'm beginning to think that I am going to need some serious depressant pills for her, because I don't think anybody could be this cruel, even in acting.
So that is my WIP. Before I forget, if you haven't checked out my like-able facebook page, I'll give you a cover that I made for a possible 2011 NaNoWriMo project. :)
