Needs Title

So here I am, at the end of April, scrambling to get my last pages in for ScriptFrenzy. I'm not as behind as I was last year, but I'm pulling these pages slowly from my brain and it's painful. I have found that I MUCH prefer writing graphic novels over T.V. scripts...it's easier for me to picture, probably because I don't have to describe camera angles (which I know almost nothing about).

My story needs a title, though. I'm hoping Stu can help me. For now I'm just calling it "The Reinstatement of the Pony Express".

I've got 25 more pages to write in 4 days (including today) which means I probably need to write 10 more pages today...I've already written almost 5. Agh. But then at least it's only 5 pages a day for the next 3 days.

I really like this story. I definitely see where it needs some work (also hoping Stu will help me with that...), but I see that I am getting better at writing and that this story has potential.

So, that's nice. I've also gotten another idea for either an indie movie or a novel...we'll see. Right now it's a movie. So I can either try it for NaNoWriMo or save it for next ScriptFrenzy...

The big project this summer will be to finalize the plot for Violet's Monster: Volume I (I have 2 down almost completely) and just WRITE IT. Agh. So many drafts...it's getting into two digits now and I keep re-working it. I might have found a plot point that finally works (I am keeping the majority of it, but there's some major stuff that just isn't working), but I don't know...I go back and forth.

I'm glad for a creative outlet that's free, though. If acting or dance or painting were free, I would do those more. Would I give up writing completely? Probably not. My ideas scream at me if I take too much time away. I don't know though...does that mean I'm a writer or that my creativity is exploring this avenue for the moment? Not sure. I could act and do NaNoWriMo and ScriptFrenzy and be perfectly happy...couldn't I?

This is my eternal struggle...I think I want to act and I think I could be good at it, but...a) no schooling b) well that's it, really. No schooling. I don't feel prepared. I feel like I can't start unless I have a good base. IF I could find something to audition for here and feel prepared for it, I'd completely go for it (I think). So...if that really is the only thing holding me back...what are good options for training that don't require an expensive school? Anybody?
