Starting Over

Here we go. Time to start a new screenplay. I have a few screenplays that I started, got lost in, then put aside while I worked on something new. Since my goal is to write three screenplays this year, I had planned on picking up one of those old screenplays and trying it again. I thought it might save some time since some of the work is already done. It felt almost like cheating. But after rewriting One Week I know that trying to fix a broken script can be harder than starting from scratch, so it's not going to feel like cheating. Also, I read this article the other day and realized that I NEED to finish those old screenplays. I need to work through EVERY step of the writing process over and over. I can't skip the hard parts. I must... keep... ...writing! No pain, No gain.

So, I've narrowed it down to two choices. I'll read each of them and see if anything jumps out at me as an obvious solution to my story problems. If not, I'll have choose a story and give it some thought. Come on, Muse. Let's dance.
