JKwaffle 11/27/20 1:24:57 PM #10:	jeffhardyb0yz posted... far better man than me. A GOOD day for me is like 3 pages. How do you usually outline? I found that for myself, super strict outlining usually just bogs me down and makes it so I end up not really writing anything. I do one fairly comprehensive plot outline, outline my characters and setting, and then just dive right into the first draft. As long as I have a solid idea of where I want the plot to go, I find it comes off a lot more natural to go ahead and start on the actual screenplay itself and let the characters evolve on their own as you write, but that's just me. --- - The user formerly known as WafflehouseJK <cite>JKwaffle posted [p:947664117] in How's your...

I mostly write dramas, although I'm currently working on my first horror screenplay. I like me some dark edgy shit in most of my writing lol. Defenitly give it a try if you're interested in it. The screenplay format just clicks with me a lot better than prose. With prose I always feel like I'm rushing to come up with filler words to fit the format, but with screenplays all you need is the words to describe what will be on the screen and that's it.

JKwaffle 11/28/20 12:20:56 AM #22:	I will say that the benefit of prose is once you write it, you can get people to read it straight away and it's basically a finished product whenever you feel satisfied with it.
