Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
For those of you who don’t know, Script Frenzy is NaNoWriMo’s younger sibling, specifically for scripts. This year its auspicious opening day is April 1st. For those of you who don’t know what NaNoWriMo is…that’s National Novel Writing Month.
Date: March 3, 2008
Categories: Fiction, poetry, and fanfiction, Life, Things We like
I’m not sure if I’m doing Script Frenzy this year. Hmm.
I have a month to decide, at least!

YAY!!! A thread for SF! At long last!
0
0
I could have sworn I saw an actual Script Frenzy thread a little while ago.
Did it get deleted, or am I going crazy?
Anyways, I want to try, but I don’t think I’ll have enough time…
Is it during April?

I’m probably doing it.
Probably.

If I do SF, it will be for my Indian in the Cupboard musical. That I never told you about because it’s supposed to remain secret until I finish it. Which will be never.

Well, Thats odd.
I’ll need to save that for future reference.

6-I was so afraid of Indian in the Cupboard when I was little. I read way too many books about living toys.

Ooh, I can’t wait. I had an insane amount of fun doing it last year, although reading it over a couple months ago made me want to go crawl into a deep pit and hide. But my script for this time may be titled The Unwilling Misadventures of Vince the Broccoli Stalk; Or Vlascar Goes to Madagascar, and that makes me happy. *laughs crazily*

I’m very excited already.

(3, 14) Actually, about 5:30 this afternoon (blog time), Lady B. and I were both moderating, unbeknownst to each other, and both created Script Frenzy threads at the same time. As soon as I’d posted mine (called “Script Frenzy 2008”), I noticed that this one had appeared a few seconds earlier, so I zapped mine.
(See how accommodating we are? Two of us were falling all over ourselves to grant your wish.)

10 – Actually it was Canix POSOC who came up with this name. On the Etheterre thread, asking if anyone knew what had happened to me.
I don’t think I’ll officially do SF, I’ll just make it a point to write the script for the musical thingy at least a little bit in the month of April.
0
0
so how many words does the script have to be?
0
0
18- 100 pages. It used to be 20,000 words but they changed it. I’m not entirely sure how one measures pages on a computer. I mean, is it supposed to be double-spaced or single-spaced? Does the amount of pages vary depending on the word processor? How do you measure pages in Celtx?
I’m terribly excited about it. It’s going to be complete madness and I’m going to have so much fun.
0
0
18- they changed it to the standard, pages, this year. 100 pages.
0
0
15 – Ha! I thought so! Well, thank you.

Alice, Your a great writer! don’t let the fact that you “have no more than ten pages on any story. I had about forty pages on one, but then my computer melted…”
0
0
19- It’ confusing, but When I want to check, I use print preview.
0
0
22- Ah, don’t worry. I don’t care that I only have ten pages. I just need to get back into the mood. And work on plots. You can be a good writer and suffer horribly if your plots suck. *nods*
I’ve been a bit whiny on the SF forums today. I left eventually.
0

24- good. You seemed a bit depressed.

Ooh, I just signed up on the website. It looks cool. -goes to explore-

25- When I’m not being cheerful and bouncy, I often seem depressed. I used to get asked a lot if something was wrong. Not so much anymore, although that one kid makes a point of noting that I look “disturbed.”
0
0
I’m really excited for this now. -bounces around-
Aargh, more waiting. Why must I have to wait for everything?
0
0
28- I know, when I first found about I really couldn’t wait. And then I didn’t even stay up to write the first word. How boring of me.
0
0
29 – Missing NaNo wasn’t that big of a deal to me, but now I’m worried that I’m going to take a break from MB and then come back to find that it’s started or something.
-suddenly remembers that Kokon is about a week before the start of SF- Nevermind. I won’t forget.

100 pages instead of 20K? That’s weird!
Well, I’ll probably do it, but I’m not going to aim to win.
Heh, that’s what I said in November, and look what happened there

Things I may Include:
Meadow/Pool/Antelopes (same scene)

The 100 page thing is a bit odd, but oh well. As I mentioned elsewhere, I do think I am going to attept it this year…
Depends though. I might be joining ing tech crew. And hockey srping season starts in 3 weeks (ended today ^^).
So. We shall see.
0

I don’t think I’ll do it. I’m away for two weeks of april, and scripts aren’t really my thing.

35- there standerd.
And yes, alice, and am readding your thread.

I don’t think 100 pages makes sense, because it would differ with everyone – size of margins, font, etc.

PLOT:
the year is 2015. 24 children, born as the millennium was changing from 1999 to 2000, divide into to groups. one of which is trying to destroy the world, the other save it. clues a plenty, ancient history.

Doe any one have an idea besides me?
0

Cat’s Meow (46): Yeah, I wasn’t sure, because it does give usernames of people on Script Frenzy and the name of the forum to go to, so I wasn’t sure if that was safe. But, I guess since it passed moderation it’s okay.
-still has absolutely NO idea what to do for a script-
0

This isn’t a new policy. I wasn’t aware you were talking about a forum. Still, nobody is forcing anyone to go there, so I’ll let the information stay. This doesn’t mean we’ve opened the floodgates, however.

52- Well, you let it through last year.
50- Sounds good.
My only plan is ignore any plan I make in advance.

It’s funny, I’m so used to SF meaning “Science Fiction”… I might do something, I have a few ideas.

50 – Sounds good to me.
53 – Yeah, I’m trying to avoid doing too much planning in advance, because that means I’ll get bored with it even faster.

There was a fantastic idea in the Plot Generator on the website a few days ago:
In a world ruled by children, a kangaroo breeder buys an unreliable time machine.
I think I’m going to use it!

Soooo… my plot idea for the moment:
There’s a guy, I think 16 or 17. Normal, does well in school but doesn’t excel, all that jazz. He gets hit by a car or something ends up i hospital with a bunch of metal in his head. They try to take it all out and fix him and stuff, and he’s awake before they start surgery, but when it’s over he goes into a coma. I’m thinking for about 6 months. In that time, when he doesn’t wake on his own and doesn’t look like he’s going to, his parents agree to let some medicine company people test their drug on him. It works (for a bit), he wakes up, is mad he’s lost so much of his life, goes around doing stuff for a while in the hospital, then BAM! Relapse. For a few years though. So what does the company do? Use more medication of course! Which wakes him up eventually but also kinda screws up part of his brain related to motor skills so he has worse hand-eye coordination. Goodbye sports. And now he has officially missed his school graduation, does not want to go back, but wouldn’t be able to have a good job so is stuck doing tests for the med company. Sadness. More comas and stuff ensue, at least one lasting for a loooong time and his parents want to just let him go and end his suffering, cause he’s depressed and suicidal when he’s awake, but the company won’t let them do that either.
So that’s what I have so far. Not sure how any of it’s going to work. But there will be remembrance scenes and dreams to so I can write in places besides the hospital…

I might do this, but April vacation might interfere…then again, just regular schoolwork might interfere….hmmm
Will I do SF? I can give you a definite maybe.

If I could write four pages a day, I could finish on the day I’d go on vacation.
0

57- That’s kind of sad. I would hate to be in a coma for any amount of time.

I’m definitely planning on doing Script Frenzy this year. It’s only about 3 pages a day, which is really easy if it’s only a script!
And I’m also going to try to win. The same thing happened with NaNo — I wasn’t aiming to win, but then as soon as I started, I decided that I did want to win.
But SF should be much easier, at least it was last year…
0
0
60- Yes… it’s loosely based off the song Octavarium by Dream Theater…
61- First year of Nano I took it easy and didn’t really try to win (well, I tried to write as much as possible, but I wasn’t crying when I didn’t). But this year (actually last year, since it was in November… whatever) I really tried after I got going and realized I could maybe do it.
I think I’ll take it easy with SF though, get a feel for what it’s like.
0
0
I don’t really get the different kinds of scripts and stuff…is it like NaNo, except you’re writing a play/movie? Do you have to include stage directions and stuff? I’m a bit puzzled by it all.

75- I was thinking more along thelines of: Aliens invade Earth after homeplanet is destroyed. It would be a satire of normal alien/scary movies. Kind of like shawn of the dead.
Oh well. Good night everyone! I’ll see you after the Day of Judgement tomorrow!

77- Shawn of the Dead is hilarious.

Oooh! Idea!
Will is an ordinary boy, who likes to be alone and unnoticed. One day he meets Kirsti, and somehow something happens involving “productive chaos” (incidentally the title of my script), and they’re catapulted through alternate universes and times, attempting all the while to return home. In the end they’ve got to the world of the antagonist, and will confront him, then hopefully find a way home.

79- *claps*
Now I’ve got a protagonist: Her name is Rosanne Lasley (named in honor of Rebecca nad Rosanne!) and she’ a seventeen year old living in Copenhagen. She’s a programming whiz and is a GAPA (i know it’s young) on MB. She is shy and lives with her divorced artist mother.
She has two very different antagonists. The firs is a MBer who is very normal and nice, but finds a wierd site on the internat. “Adorable Planet-less master species looking for planet to inhabit. Must have H2O, (certain levels of) oxygen, Around 0 – 110 degrees farenheit. (Then comes some more stuff about radiation levels, so on). Must have live prey. Please send us an e-mail at slg_krmp_yfmmrvh@PlanetSearch.com.”
Our little hero here sends an invitation to the aliens, who are, yes, Hot Pink Bunnies.
The lead HPB is Avfh. He responds to the invitaion by sending fifty egg shaped ships to the planet filled with HPB’s looking for a better life. They are technological geniuses and quickly conquer. All schools, factories (except those making canned foods) are shut down. Chaos reigns. Fields of grass quickly turn into fields of lettice and carrots.
In the reign of all thi schaos, Rosanne is surprised that the internet is stil up and running, although heavily censured by the HPBs. Rosanne does a little digging and discovers the HPBs’ only weakness.

Oh crap this is soon. Ahg.
Octavarium
[I. Someone Like Him]
I never wanted to become someone like him so secure
Content to live each day just like the last
I was sure I knew that
This was not for me
And I wanted so much more
Far beyond what I could see
So I swore that I’d
Never be someone like him
So many years have passed
Since I proclaimed
My independence
My mission
My aim
And my vision
So secure
Content to live each day like it’s my last
It’s wonderful to know
That I could be
Something more than what I dreamed
Far beyond what I could see
Still I swear that I’m
Missing out this time
As far as I could tell
There’s nothing more I need
But still I ask myself
Could this be everything
Then all I swore
That I would never be was now
So suddenly
The only thing
I wanted
To become
To be someone just like him
[II. Medicate (Awakening)]
A Doctor sitting next to me
He asks me how I feel
Not sure I understand his questioning
He says I’ve been away a while
But thinks he has cured me
From a state of catatonic sleep
For 30 years
Where have I been
Eyes open
But not getting through to me
Medicate me
Infiltrate me
Side effects appear
As my conscience slips away
Medicate me
Science failing
Conscience fading fast
Can’t you stop what’s happening
A higher dosage he prescribes
But there’s no guarantee
I feel it starting to take over me
I tell him not to be ashamed
There’s no one who’s to blame
A second shot
A brief awakening
I feel the relapse
Can’t break free
Eyes open
But not getting through to me
[III. Full Circle]
Sailing on the seven seize the day tripper diem’s ready
Jack the ripper Owens Wilson Phillips and my supper’s ready
Lucy in the sky with diamond Dave’s not here I come to save the
Day for nightmare cinema show me the way to get back home again
Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Looking outward
Reaching in
Scream without a sound
Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I’ve come full circle
Flying off the handle with careful with
That axe Eugene gene the dance machine
Messiah light my fire gabba gabba
Hey hey my my generation’s home again
Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Looking outward
Reaching in
Scream without a sound
Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I’ve come full circle
[IV. Intervals]
[First]
Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath
Remove all obstacles from our path
[Second]
Asking questions
Search for clues
The answer’s been right in front of you
[Third]
Try to break through
Long to connect
Fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath
[Fourth]
Loyalty, trust, faith and desire
Carries love through each darkest fire
[Fifth]
Tortured Insanity
A smothering hell
Try to escape but no avail
[Sixth]
The calls of admirers
Who claim they adore
Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more
[Seventh]
Innocent victims of merciless crimes
Fall prey to some madmen’s impulsive designs
[Octave]
Step after step
We try controlling our fate
When we finally start living it has become too late
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
…
[V. Razor’s Edge]
We move in circles
Balanced all the while
On a gleaming razor’s edge
A perfect sphere
Colliding with our fate
This story ends where it began

Isn’t 100 pages more than the 20,000 words of last year?
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! (random exclamation of anger)
There is no way I can finish; I;ve never written a script in my life, I know nothing about formatting, my plot is complicated (and I’m too attached to it to change it), my life is busy, and finally I write at the pace of a snail with a broken leg and no crutches.

I need help naming one of my characters.
He’s 15 years old, practical, doesn’t go out of his way to be nice or sugarcoat the truth, but a decent sort, and I get the feeling he doesn’t come from a high-class family. Not necessarily an orphan, definitely not too poor to live, but he lives in a grimy part of the city, and probably has discreetly mended garments. For a while I was calling him Conall, but there are a few problems with that, mainly that it clashes with his friend’s name. She’s Kirsti, and while I don’t really mean for it to be too Scandinavian, an Irish name is a bit too much. Not to mention they both start with a “k” sound.

Oh Spring Break, why must you be in March! Why?
My spring break ends March 30. Then I go back to school and die because of all the end of year testing and cramming. Holy fruit I just realized how close it is to summer.
I don’t know what to write about. I think I’ll write about a story that I keep playing in my head. I tried to write it but I had to go to bed and then I lost the writing skills. Actually I like the story where it is. Maybe I’ll keep it in my head. The characters don’t have names anyway. I don’t want them to have names.

Friendly reminder about MuseBlog’s rule on sharing information about your location:
You may tell which state you live in and narrow down the geography slightly further (for example, Northern California; upstate New York; east Texas). But you may not name your city unless you live in a metropolitan with a population of a million or more.

OHCRAP. I need names for my characters. Shootshootshootshootshoot. I forgot about that little detail.
Um… no time to search…
I’m just going to steal random MBer’s names and descriptions for my characters. Easier, and I’ll have an idea of what the characters are like. Does anyone mind?
I’m thinking I can use Alice, Grant, if other people can give names to me I’ll use you too, or even fake names (but realistic) and I’ll just steal you’re personalities

Though with my wit I bite, /My couplets are quite right, /I am a poet,/ And though you profess to know it,/ You know not well my trade/ I deal in words by the day/ And then in Night its flight./ My mind soars high/ And so I fly./ Up with the birds./ When I sculpt words,/ This is my inspiration.
I don’t love it, but in the spirit of Script Frenzy I will not go back and edit and I needed an excuse to procrastinate so I’m posting it here.

124 – Alice’s is apparently much different then kiwimuncher’s. And kiwimunchers is longer, so I’m somewhat hoping kiwimuncher’s is right.

125- Er… You’ve been copying MINE? Well, I did do it in Celtx, so it should be fine…
OK. Two things. One, dialogue and character names should be centered; two, the scene heading (Int/Ext, etc) should be capitalized.

SCRIPPED JUST DIED ON ME. I saved my edits, thank god. I really like Scripped, ’cause it counts pages and everything, but the trouble is, it seems to have Problems. And Difficulties. And Issues. Celtx might be a better choice.

Oh, sorry for the double post, but Hypatia, there are some really useful pages on the official SF site that help with the formatting greatly.

128 – Actually, I meant purplefinch.
127 – I’ve been doing mine like this, which is how purplefinch did hers:
ALICE
(Suspiciously)
Okay, we’ve given you our tickets. May we board the ship now?
SHIP CAPTAIN
(Startled)
Oh, yes, of course! (Shakes head) Go right aboard!
(ALICE, CAT’S MEOW, and IBCF walk past the SHIP CAPTAIN, and off stage to the audience’s right. The SHIP CAPTAIN watches them for a moment)
Yes, my script does involve MuseBloggers. And Muse Academy, for that matter. I am just not sure whether this is the right format or not. That’s all centered, by the way.

It’s really hard for me because so far I only have one character, so she has to talk to herself constantly. Now I’ve got to go and find another…

*feels honored*
I followed the format at the site, but I don’t know how correctly… I think some parts may be more play-like than screenplay-like…
But I decided to do the same thing again this year, because it will be more fun (Right now, I have about a page… with the [rather large] character list), and I don’t have the patience with the other sites.

133 – As Alice said, I can tell your writing style, and “Mousy-Haired, Female Greek Scholar To Whose Memory I have Just Done Wrong By The Coupling of Her Name With An Untrue Slander (mousy-haired)” posted on all the same threads Hypatia did, so I just guessed.
134 – Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Is Scripped working again now?

I have too much HW to write more today but I think I’ll just wing the format, becuase I don’t really want to give my email to yet another site. I’m web-paranoid. I hung around Museblog for three weeks reading all the ancient threads, trying to make sure I would be totally safe. I just realized how sad that sounds seeing as I’m not even a parent. Wow, total tangent.

According to Scripped my script is currently 10 pages done. And I’m not even done reformatting it. Wow.
141 – I created a new e-mail account about a year ago that I use for stuff like the Frenzy website and Scripped, so that I don’t have to give out my actual one. That way if anyone gets a hold of it somehow it’s no big deal. Maybe you could do that.

RAFAEL
(moves away from the crowds a little and the noise dims) Nobody is all right until they know the poet, until they’ve been stung by his biting verse, and until they’re intimately familiar with his capricious and fickle character. And you my man (slaps the fuming, but very perplexed, Bystander on the back) are no exception. So calm your hurry and lend an ear to my young friend over here.

On Scripped, what are “Parenthetical” and “Transition” for?

149 – I was wondering that myself, I have no idea!
But now I have 2 pages of script written, so I’m stopping for the night.
And you only have to write about 3 pages a day, which is so little! Compared to NaNo, at least!

0
115- Ooh, maybe I can… ^^
117- Actually, if I get far enough I’ll probably let people read it. Unlike my Nano, which has so much of me in it it’d be like letting people pick through my mind. This one’s not based off me really, but a song, so I can let others look. BUt there is a character named Alice now. Actually she may end up being Grant’s love interest, but only for a bit cause he’s going to go into a coma soon…
149- Transition I believe is like fading to black between scenes, disolving them into each other, ect. Parentheticals go just under a characters name and above their dialouge, with things to describe motions they make or how they speak. So you could have:
GRANT
(fondly)
My best friends are Chris, who I’ve known since second grade when he poured jell-o down my shirt, and Troy, who stopped a bully from beating my up in fifth grade by smashing his trombone on his head. Sometimes you just bond with people, y’know?
Or:
Troy:
(running across stage)
Stop that, d*** you! Put the penguin back into it’s pen, it’s not supposed to come out until after the trumpet’s enter!
…I have the first in my script, but I think I may need to put the second in too.
Anyway, I am just starting page 3!
By the way in Celtx, you can get it to show you where pages break by selecting “script” and then clicking “enable pagination.”
But we really don’t have to write as much each day as we did for Nano. Thank god.

153-Thats quite funny (I mean the penguins and best friends)!

I’m basically resigned to doing my script freehand. Which reminds me, I should probably go write it.

I’m still at just barely 14 pages. And I just got back from soccer practice, so my hands are numb and I can barely type.
Hey, Alice, would you be mad if I killed you off? You would likely come back to life eventually, but I would stiill like to get at least something resembling permission before I write the death scene.

162- Not at all. But the Rule applies: If I die, it has to be dramatic. Spectacular. (In actual life, I’d like to die quietly. In stories, I want to go out with a bang.)

Eh, I’ll just kill Alice off. She’ll come back to life, anyways. She may not even die, actually, just get severely electrocuted. We’ll see.

163 – Hmmm…what if you never actually die?
Or, better yet, what if you DO die, and then other people have to go on some quest thing to revive you?
Right now you fall over backwards screaming while there’s a strobe light flashing. And for at least a few more scenes you’re going to be a hospital, whether dead or not, and then you’ll get revived, and then everyone will be happy.
Maybe.

165- Either way, that sounds good.
Now I’m off to go write. Right now my character-less characters are wandering around looking for some ruby that neither of them knows the first thing about. Maybe Peter will force Sasha to do some research. Or better yet! They get captured by the antagonist of the story, and unwittingly tell him about the stone. He does some research, and the overhear him talking about it. They escape, and go to the newly discovered location, but they have to fight him constantly. Yup. Sounds good.

My small cast of characters:
Sasha – Protagonist
Peter – Secondary Protagonist
Malacour – Antagonist
Watson – Other antagonist
Several Hundred HPBs – Other other antagonist(s)
Man 1 – Very small side character
Man 2 – Other very small side character
Cart Driver – Other other very small side character
Each has different motives. Sasha’s is to find the Eye of Gapa, the enormous glow-in-the-dark ruby, Peter’s is to escape the HPBs and his haunting past, Malacour’s is to get the Eye of Gapa, Watson’s is to overthrow Malacour, and the HPBs just want to get in the way.

Replies in rhyme when people offend her (or tries to, I have to say most of them are pretty lame), loves to sing cabaret songs in her friend’s ears despite the fact that all of them (and her chorus teacher) have told her that she “has trouble picking up tunes”, headbuts people frequently

Oh, no. *dies*
I just had a new idea. That I love twenty times as much. So now I have a dilemma:
Do I grit my teeth and keep going with Sasha’s tale, growing less and less fond of the characters as I go, or do I take the new idea, have fun with it, and just accept that I’m many pages behind?
I’m opting for the latter. It should be much more fun. Sort of an insane tangled fairy-tale thing, but…not. I mean, only the setting is fairy-tale-ish. I’m not sure how I would do it without it turning into an “Enchanted Forest Chronicles” thing, but I think it would be easy enough….
At the same time, the only thing wrong with Sasha’s tale is the characters. Oh, and the entire plot.
Ummm…
This is oddly reminiscent of last year… And NaNo. *dies again*
OK. I’ll stick with Sasha. Disnce writing down the new idea I’ve become increasingly unhappy with it, so obviously Sasha has a longer life. I just wish she acted her age.
0

203 – Yeah, just stick to Sasha. You can always work on the new idea after Screnzy is over, or next year, if you still like it then. Or you could somehow work in parts of that story into the current one, if possible.

This is probably a triple post. But I must make this announcement.
I AM BORED OF MY SCRIPT.
And it’s Day 5. And I have 35 2/3 pages.
But it’s horribly boring me, because nothing’s happening except a bunch of people talking about nothing interesting.
I need aliens. Or, better yet, radioactive bunnies, which is much more likely to happen. But it can’t happen until several other things happen, and those just happen to be the parts that are boring me.
Gah.

I found a new way to procrastinate: write random poetry about Screnzy.
Wishing for words
That won’t appear
Every page
Takes years and years
Every action
Every line
To finish I’ll need
Intervention divine
Procrastination galore
Isn’t it fun?
Playing pointless games
While some have already won
Script Frenzy, Script Frenzy
Every year we will write
During hours of scribbling
In daylight or night
Geez, that was horrible.
I have to go to bed.

The second week slog
Is a most abdominable bog,
But it detracts from its evil to write poems about it on the blog.
I feel that my laziness is soon to proliferate,
And make me finish my script far too late,
I have fallen for that terrible bate,
That we call procrastination-ate!!
Tada my dysfunctional poem.

Huh. I’m getting bored with my story. Even though they still have three villains to defeat, in this order:
HPBs (apparently)
Malacour
Watson
HPBs (really)
Oh, and we have to figure out Peter’s Mysterious Past. And maybe run into Sasha’s parents, whom she is attempting to spite by going on an Adventure without them.
But I want something fun to happen. This is kind of boring.

I have 35 2/3 pages. Still. But I’m hoping Scene Nine will make it a little more interesting.
SCENE NINE – IN WHICH A VERY PLEASANT HOUSE MEETING TURNS DISASTEROUS WITH THE ARRIVAL OF AN UNEXPECTED, AND QUITE UNWELCOMED, GUESS
Doesn’t that just scream drama?
Anywhoo, following Hypatia’s lead I shall also compose a poem. For no real reason.
I hate my script
It bores me to death
I wish I was done with it
Like I’m done with this breath
Maybe it would be easier
To buy some time
If every character
Could only talk in rhyme
That would certainly add pages
And be more interesting as well
Something is telling me
This idea is swell
But, really, realistically
How could this be?
My characters won’t want to
Can not you see?
Perhaps it could be a curse
A jinx, or a spell
A class for aspiring poets
Might work, as well
Whatever, I don’t care
My script bores me to death
I guess my characters will be rhyming
With each and every breath
‘Til the writer’s block is broken
And my ideas are set free
And, then, only then
Will I be filled with glee
No applause – just throw ideas.

252 – Maybe we should each give each other dares that have to be completed in the current scene. Hypatia, too, since all of us appear to be slogging. For example, everyone could have to include a swordfight before the scene is done, or introduce a new character named Ink. Or do SOMETHING that would get the ideas flowing again.
Introducing a new character named Ink sounds fun, actually. I could have an anthropomorphic ink bottle.

I absolutely adore your poems. With a serious passion. I really think they’re brilliantly fantastic.
Its odd that you should say that about talking in rhyme as that just what my protagonist does. And its worse than normal talking. Atleast for me.
I think I will include a swordfight and take you up on that dare. I dare you, in return, to have someone drop chocolate out of a window. If that works. If not, I can think up something a little more harmless.

257 – Thanks! ^_^ The inspiration from that came when I realized that if I’m more interested in writing poems then dialouge right now, why not have the dialogue in poem? It also takes up more pages then just normal dialouge.
Oh, and I can totally take you up on the chocolate thing.
258 – Your pick. You can dare us in return, too.

My main character is reminding me increasingly or a very very bad and somewhat more cynical spoof of Cyrano De Bergerec. My plot reminds me of some ridiculously nonsensical combination of EM Foster’s Passage to India and some Hemmingway book. My antagonist character reminds me of a terrible (and I mean terrible) copy of Orlich from Great Expectations and my writing reminds me of *tries to remember worst book ever read*. I feel un-original (and low quality). *grinds teeth* Well, the sword fight should spice things up.

OK. In the next three scenes:

• I will introduce a character named Ink, who speaks only in rhyme
• There will be a swordfight
In whatever order works best.

I’m going to post a Excerpt. :
EXT. Sphinx-9:30
The Protector’s group is walking around the sphinx.
TROY
Whats this?
Troy pushes on something. a block slides back
PAUL
A door! Quick, Thru!
Troy enters, Followed by the rest. Twit and Paul are at the end.
ROBERT

PAUL

TROY
Wow.
ROBERT
It makes sense. how else could they afford this?
LIBBY
Point taken.
PAUL
Lets get moving, O.k?
Troy picks up a torch from the wall. The rest do the same. they walk up a flight of stairs to find a chamber. in the middle of the chamber is a box. there is a golden beetle in it. Robert and troy run to it.
TROY
Wow. it’s , it’s…
ROBERT
A scarab beetle.
LIBBY
Wow.
GIRL #1
Quick, put it some where!
Troy stuffs it into his back pack. They start of a set of stairs. at the top of them is a door. it opens into the outside. twele kids wait for them.
GEORGE
Guys, We’ve got them.
George runs forward, followed by a bunch of the kids. Karil and Sophie rush the other way.
GEORGE
Come on, Guys, Are You scared of fighting? Didn’t Paul Tell You There was evil?
TROY
Yes, But We Didn’t know it was our age.
GEORGE
Well, It is! Now!
Karil and Shopie rush into the children from the back. Troy Runs forward towards George.
GEORGE

George gets up. He amuses Kun-fu movie stance.
GEORGE

263-That is really super duper cool.
Voila an excerpt.
When a man begins to talk of nobility/ There appears between me and him hostility/ Large talk too often occasions large fights/ And yet more frequently loss of natural rights./ It is for this that I fear the Demagogue/ He makes civilization into a bog/ While casting our minds into a fog. / Oblivious, we blindly follow his rule / I fear that he is a most abdominable fool.
My protagonist says it. Hooray for all the bad poetry that this script will give me occasion to write. Oh and if no one onjects I might have a ham go flying out the window along with the chocolate. Or maybe a beer mug. ANd it will definitily hit someone on the head. But who? THis could get wierd. Very very weird.

Here’s my excerpt:
SCENE NINE-IN WHICH THERE IS NEARLY A SHOCKING WASTE OF CHOCOLATE, PREVENTED BY A WELL-TIMED STROLL, OR RATHER A JOURNEY, BY GEOFFREY, SASHA, AND PETER, WHO SOON REALIZE WHY THEY ARE GIFTED WITH CHOCOLATE FALLING FROM THE SKY, AND THE ANSWER ISN’T A PLEASANT ONE
With titles like that, you don’t even need a scrip!
Now I just have to figure out why they’re gifted with chocolate falling from the sky. I think it might be poisoned, but I’m not sure how we can find that out without killing one of them. I could kill Peter without too much grief, but he has a Mysterious Past. And I can’t kill Sasha, ’cause she’s the Main Character, and I like Geoffrey too much.

Here’s what’s going to happen:
Sasha is walking in a chocolate-induced coma, when they come across a man with a long beard sitting at a crossroads. He holds a conversation with them that is partially about salad. Then the kangaroo character approaches, and tries to kill Sasha, who duels him. During the duel there will be the usual clichèd exchange of witty banter, only instead of actually saying something intelligible, they will exchange words. Then something will happen.

I just completed the “Throw the chocolate out the window” dare. The “chocolate bar” was actually a time bomb that got thrown through the window into Spector House, and then Canix through it back out the window, and then it exploded into a portal that Sir Bunny, Lawrence Pinklin, and Qwerty (the electric kangaroo that talks only in random words) come out of.

That was fun. I’m going to post an excerpt now.
PETER nods. SASHA mutters something unintelligible. GEOFFREY turns around.
GEOFFREY
Good lord!
KANGAROO is approaching on the road behind them. It comes along extremely fast and in no time is right next to them, wielding a sword.
KANGAROO
Addition!
SASHA reaches behind her and pulls a sword from a previous unnoticed stone.
SASHA
Parade!
The swords clash.
KANGAROO
Programming! Football! Interval!
SASHA
Disk…
She makes an exceptionally hard jab and misses.
KANGAROO
Fetch!
PETER and GEOFFREY are gaping. INK does not seem to notice the battle.
SASHA
Inefficiency. Answer. Typewriter!!!
KANGAROO barely misses her arm. She stabs again, and this time she hits it. Its pouch explodes in a shower of sparks.
KANGAROO
Advantage.
It turns on INK and slashes at the cobwebs, but it is failing and anly manages to trim the old man’s beard.
SASHA
DIALOG!
She stabs again, and KANGAROO falters and comes to a stop, dropping the sword.
SASHA
Ringing…

I almost feel sorry for Arph. (Arph is my kangaroo. I got his name by taking the first letters of words I generated using a random word generator) He doesn’t understand anything that’s said to him, and he just says random nouns, and Sir Bunny has forced him into virtual slavery. Not really, since he goes along with him willingly, but he really doesn’t understand what he’s supposed to be doing.
I have extreme sympathy for the villians in this chapter.

289 – Aren’t there already at least 5 on this thread?
But, if you really need one…here’s three. You can pick one or more to use.
1. Have a talking clock.
2. Introduce two new characters: a boy and his dog. You decide what to do from there.
3. Your characters suddenly hear some myterious music coming from somewhere off in the distance.
I am like 93.14159% sure that my writer’s block has gone away. I wrote almost 10 pages today, so I’m up to 44. And 2/3. And I still have more ideas. But I think I’m going to stop here for the night.
So, I leave you with one final poem, the version of the Spector House song that the Spector House people in my story make up on the spot. (It’s their way of excercizing their minds.)
In a land not far away
In this very time
There exists dear Spector House
Foe of reason, friend of rhymes
With full notebooks and sharp pencils
The pen will prove mighter then the sword
In Spector House the sharp of mind
Will never end up bored
When others try to top Spector House
They never pass the test
The creativity of Spector House
Will always be the best!

But if Arph won, Sir Bunny, Lawrence Pinklin, and Arph would get to kidnap IBCF, Hypatia, Cat’s Meow, and Canix.
And Canix was about to win, but then Arph used his leet magical powerz (which none of the Musers knew about) and beat him. So we all got taken prisoner.
But, don’t worry. Ink will help us escape.

Script Frenzy has been incredibly helpful lately, though. In History this week we’re doing skits, and I could show off to everybody with my awesomely formatted scripts while everyone else was still using Microsoft Word – the amatures. 
Oh, and my history teacher also happens to be the main drama teacher at our school (it’s a small school) and he suggested that I write a script over the summer that kids from our school would actually put on.

I still have 35 and I just rammed into the two-week wall with an inordinate amount of strength. I think I’ll go watch some Westerns!

360 – Yeah, I love my kangaroo. Ink has been helpful too.
262 – Ooh, a new thread would be great!
363 – Ouch. That has to hurt. Have fun watching Westerns.

Ugh. I didn’t realize that SF had started until two days ago…
Oh well! Not going to let that stop me. I’ve got thirty pages already… *goes off to work*

364-Thanks. It was a good movie (The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance). And I still have only 35 pages. *dies repeatedly*
368-How ever did you manage to write that much?
Ugh. *wall resists all efforts at dynamite* My history paper sabotaged my stock. Adios!

*borrows some of Meow’s dynamite* *bashes at the wall with hammer* *sits down in defeat* Sigh…
I need to write four more pages today, at LEAST. And I don’t know what to do with it.
*sighs again* *wanders off*

369- I… write fast. Especial when I find out that SF started nine days before the time of the beginning of the writing.

I’m still stuck at 56. I don’t think I’ve written at all for about 5 days, except for a single line yesterday.
And I’m seriously considering randomly blowing up all of my characters. Except I’m one of them. Or maybe I’ll blow them up and then have everybody mysteriously come back to life. That sounds fun.

Only not, because this time Zwilling (the kangaroo) joins their band of explorers.

At the moment my main character is arguing with her sidekick about whether or not to break this other super-villain out of jail…

Just broke the 72 page mark. 72 is a good number for day 12. it’s 6 pages a day.

Ancient. Not. Infantile (well, thats a pretty accurate description of my maturity level but not of my biological age). I am honestly internet mortified, so I am scared to say. Lets just say, below 15 and above 10.

390 – Pretty short, I guess. One of my friends on another website that I go on is obsessed with penguins, and right as you posted that he had made a speech about why penguins were awesome. So it was just sort of funny.
391 – Yeah, POSOC makes up extended names for people sometimes. I’ve always liked mine, Vocalization of Feline.
–CAT’S MEOW

391- Um, Wow. I didn’t know that, and on the random thread I wrote about your name that it was like something POSOC would call a neophyte. Small world blog, I guess.

The name is really quite spiffing.

383 – If you’ve written 72 pages in 12 days, and I’ve written 40 in three (since I started writing on the 9th), then you have an average of 6 pages per day and I have an average of 13 1/3 pages per day. Therefore, even though I have fewer pages then you do, I am doing the best. However, you are almost 3/4 of the way to the goal, whereas I am just a smidge under half. Shall we call it a tie?
