Happy early Halloween

I'd like to say that we're done with the screenplay, but we're not,  it won't be done in time for Halloween.

I'm still plugging along on the novel and it's been really interesting filling in a lot of the gaps in the screenplay.  I have more time and space to flesh out the characters and give them some nice moments.

I sent a copy of Red Riding Hood and my Vampire screenplay to the critic I mentioned back in June.  I got a hold of her finally and she wanted a hard copy of them.  It will be interesting what a former critic has to say about them.  Hopefully she will like them and give some insight on how to improve them since that's the ultimate goal:  make each screenplay as good as possible.

Novel and Animated Halloween screenplay

The novel is moving along nicely now, but I'm not going to have it finished by the end of the year.  I'm pretty sure I'll have it done by the end of January or the beginning of February.  It's a realistic goal, now that I know how much I'm getting done each day, so I shouldn't have to push it back any more.

We got our feedback to our Animated Halloween screenplay and starting working on the next revision.  Since I'm writing this one with my wife, it takes a little of the pressure off with writing the novel too.  Did I mention that she's working on her second draft of her first novel?  Well she is, so we're just a couple of very busy writers.
