Screenplay writing...

...is coming along, but not quickly. I just grab an hour or two at it when I can, I made this scene by scene plan, but realised this followed the book rather slavishly at times, so  ultimately I seem to be not using that and have done essentially a quarter of the screenplay straight off the top of my head!

God knows if I can do the whole damn thing this way...it is so difficult as it is! But, if, or rather when, I finish draft one, I will be so damn proud of myself.

Then, the tricky stuff starts. Tidying it up, re drafting, redrafting, redrafting, cutting out all that does not drive the story. Can I do it? Can I do it? And what will I do when I finish it?
