Dianne Queen of Shoes Registered: 05/24/04 Posts: 6123 Loc: Arizona	I mentioned several months ago that the tv writer, ex husband of my girlfriend, (confused yet?) was willing to help me with my screenplay. He's still working on it!!!!! I can't tell you how funny he is in his emails. His ex told me he used to to stand up comedy in LA to learn the art of comedy and that's what he does...writes tv, comedy sitcoms. So, he's still working on it in between his other writing and going through a divorce and trying to sell his house. He's put a ton of hours into it. He said he doesn't know how to just read and make notes but ends up rewriting the entire thing and says he can't help it, it's a mental condition! So, I wait. Happily wait and am so grateful for his help.

Or are you just happy he's willing to help, and you'll take it when it's finished. Can you tell us what it's about? You know Smilinize also writes plays. Who else?

Dianne Queen of Shoes Registered: 05/24/04 Posts: 6123 Loc: Arizona	It's hard to give someone a deadline who isn't being paid for their work. I'm simply thankful that's he's putting so much time into it and knows what he's doing, unlike myself. It's based on a true story about three women who become close friends because of one creepy man that is in all of their lives. In my screenplay though, I kill him off. Wishful thinking perhaps? I'd love to hear from other screenplay writers.

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Loved the screenplay Dianne and couldn't stop reading until the end, the one male character was such a scoundrel he deserved being killed off. The ending was a real kicker, hope he doesn't rewrite it too much...

Sigrid Macdonald Member Registered: 01/20/05 Posts: 223 Loc: Ottawa, Ontario	Dianne, Where will you submit the screenplay when you're finished? Just curious. I would love to turn my book into a screenplay. My sister works in Hollywood and she said that she could send me the format but it sounds like a lot of work. What will you do with yours when you're done? Sigrid
