This blog will allow you to follow the creation of a screenplay from the creation of an idea to the end result. Regular posts will let you see what happens at each phase.

After writing past the introduction, 30 - 34 pages, I evaluated my main characters. This is first a character driven story, and then plot driven, so the characterization must be good.

I found that they were largely reacting to "Harry," which they should because Harry is their nemesis, but they were not reacting to each other. Not good. So I made a list of personal characteristics that people in their professions might exhibit. I selected the characteristics more likely to draw people into conflict, and then rewrote these pages. Much better. This same process will probably happen again in later rewrites.
