Page 64 - Student: dazed And Confused

I read this thing about doing storyboard type things, like getting this big sheet of card and
some post it notes, then scribbling each important bit down, then moving them around.
Tried it for something else and it did my head in, so that's not gonna help.

I have been in a weird sleep pattern for years and I now do my best writing at about 3 in the
morning. It helps a hell of a lot in this actually cos of the night and the dark - which makes
perfect sense to me.

Trying to wean myself off song lyrics - bit of a bitch cos there are loads to fit this idea.
Surprisingly good with subtle - and I twist the words so you'll never know they're there heh

heh

Heard some of the other starts to the plays. One or two are seriously over-written in my
opinion, something I'll check mine for now. Already, I can see some parts which don't work
but probably won't change much till it been read.

Currently at the six or seven minute stage and I'm raring to go. Haven't got as far as I
wanted because I'm just too lazy but when I do start writing, watch me go. Like I'll probably
do 3 pages before I move on to another assignment.

It's hard to know which parts of this people will pick up on. I'm hoping they get the hints
and make the connections - it's not exactly difficult !

I'm supposed to decide which drama slot this would best fit into - not entirely sure but I
reckon it'll be an evening one as it has a little language in it and dark, kind of violent bits.
There is the collegey bits and stuff but it gets darker than this extract - or it does in my
head.

It's getting harder to say with certainty that I could tell this in 45 mins - be better if I could

serialise it over a week. I'll have to find out for the future, I'm creating ideas as I speak - go
me

Have got further uses for the characters introduced but maybe it is best to write one of
them out to make it less confusing? Don't want to as I have roles in my head but maybe I
won't need one of them in the end. I'll keep them all till I decide.

Read a friends' play and it is good, can compare them both. I now know what else works
and doesn't. Got me some re-writing to do - not too much though.
