To write, or not to write That is the question
I changed well known phrase...and really, that was a question for me... And now this is not question, but process, that I'm involved in...
So, what happened, that never before wrote even couple of words, once decided to write a script?
Well, shorter: several years ago one man told me a story where he took a part, and that was an auction with two gangs competing there to buy some piece of a state land, and it wasn't scary as most criminals, but at the contrary, it was so funny, that I laughed of it as never before... And after years had passed I've got a proposal from a group of private investors to submit a project related with entertainment...I recollected that funny story and asked poster if they accept screenplays...and they confirmed it, so, now I had a meeting with a previous story teller to refresh those events...and begun to write, and studying screenwriting and everything related with it, both creative and business sides... Now I have a script's title FUNKY AUCTION and a logline with variants, so, if some are interested I could place here some scene (each no more than a page) for judgment of my writing, ok?
