Over the last year or so I have concentrated on words, not surprising for a writer! However I am talking about completely absorbing these words. Just like a fleeting hello with a stranger words are not always acknowledged, absorbed or translated into our own language. Read or written is not enough. A word conquered is a word understood.

The Screenplay
Could my Manuscript be Turned into a Screenplay?
I met with a film producer yesterday, he had read my first two chapters and liked them. It is always good when someone likes your work but it is even better if they inspire you. I have now started to rewrite my first book as a screenplay. I have found more detail is needed and so the book is getting more descriptive. In short the manuscript is getting better, my writing is improving and the story is getting deeper. I had been so involved with other projects I had started to doubt that first manuscript. So it was amazing to be brought back to it, back to exactly where I was this time last year, writing it.
