On being Jim and Casey

I don't know why writing is ridiculously hard right now. I wanna sit down, lock myself in and crank out the script to end all scripts. I wanna Kerouac this thing. Right now I'm trying to just write dialogue. I little technique I'm trying to develop is to just start writing dialogue between two people. I just randomly picked the names JIM and CASEY so that whatever I write they'll have consistent names to them. After a while, if it works, I'll be able to see a clear path towards developing these characters, their conflicts. And then the rest pretty much writes itself.

Half Wolf, All Nazi

Anne Frankenstein is a script I wrote in the fall of 09. I was looking at a bunch of old scripts and found this one. I always find it funny to go back and read stuff I've written because I can clearly see the certain styles and writing trends I go through. I remember when I first tried to write, things just turned out to be cheap high school knock offs of old Aronofsky works. Or long drawn out witty dialogues set inside diners. Completely Tarantino esque. As of now, I'm really feeling the simplistic approach. Its more show than tell. I was never one for writing scripts that are overly descriptive, but I'll admit that its been as fun as it has been challenging. The only hard part is keeping it in the third person perspective. lol.
