You should really listen to what you say. All your advice is OBVIOUS. All these things are what even a 10-year old would do. Tell me something I don't know.

@doomsdaymonster7 basically :(( but I've had worse problems. but thanks for asking.

@klwewf I never said I knew everything. Just... I'd start with uninfected writing (Mamet). I'd also touch story spine and maybe get into Aristotle. You talk as if you're writing a stand-up, which is not the case. My career is kinda stale at the moment. My script got optioned but they wanna Hollywoodize it and I don't want my name on "Big sex scene and a romantic kiss in the end". Trying not to sell out but I might have to go broke with those professional values in mind...
