Writer's Life

For over ten years my passion has been writing.  I try to write everyday and have recently completed two screenplays.  I love the Mystery/Drama and Action genres.  I'm working on another screenplay and a tv script for spec...to add to my writing portfolio.

Recently, I realized how much I love editing.  When I write a post for twitter, I find there is always a more concise way to say the same thing.  In fact, every time I rewrite a script...I always feel the project is better.

As I work on an article I hope to publish, my mind is always drifting to one of my scenes in my screenplay.  Creating characters and drama is so much fun.  I try to put myself in the character's mind and be the character momentarily while I am writing.  It is probably not wise to be the character that is in a car chase while driving, but that always adds a little excitement to my life.  Sometimes, it seems the character is taking over and the dialog just seems to write itself.
