Writing...

# data[].attributes.body
For my independent project I will be writing and revising a series of short scenes/stories.

Pretty early on I decided to shift to more of a screenplay style. Both because I was having trouble making headway, and because it would let me focus more on dialogue, which I knew going into the project was the thing I wanted to work on the most

I originally decided to use 'One' and 'Two' as the boy's names just because I couldn't come up with names that fit in the beginning, but as I wrote I realized that I kind of liked the anonymity that comes with not giving them specific names. To me it makes them feel a little more universal, which is also why I don't actually describe them too much and kinda only explore their personalities and relationships. Also it kinda reminds me of Thing One and Thing Two ala Doctor Seuss, which is a nice comparison because they are very much a pair.

I decided to have a little more fun with the setting description/blocking/exposition/what have you (essentially all the stuff in italics). In a lot of screenplays I've read, that type of stuff is usually very functional and that's about it. So while I still tried to keep things fairly minimal and straightforward, I tried to spice the descriptive bits up by oftentimes using a more comical or sarcastic tone. Which I think also helps the whole project not come off as too serious or deep, because while it is about a lot of important stuff (to me, at least), my priority was that it be fun.

Revising is always my favorite part of writing and it's something that I'm basically doing from the moment I write the first word. Which does lead to me taking some time on stuff as I agonize over this or that sentence or how a certain piece of dialogue sounds. But it has been fun to show some of my CAPA friends different scenes as I complete them and to make changes according to their thoughts. They've all been very insightful.

I actually probably spent more time just writing without thinking (without constantly checking myself) than I've done in years. Obviously I went back and did plenty of revisions by myself and with others, but I definitely don't think I would've been able to break even ten pages if I'd gone about writing how I've done in the past. And instead I broke thirty, which is actually kinda neat? Especially for only working for two weeks. Giving myself a little more freedom definitely allowed for me to spit out a lot more ideas and ultimately lead to me feeling like I actually made something. Even if there's still a long ways to go (there are plennnnnty more scenes that I would like to write to kind of fill in the middle). I chose this as my senior project with the hope that I'd actually be able to sit down and just let my brain do its thing, and to an extent that's what happened.

I don't hate it

Here's 30+ pages of hectic dialogue that I had a fun time writing
