Blunted

As expected, I didn’t make it to the shortlist for Sharps. Apparently, 100 scripts were longlisted from the near 600 entrants, and the writers of those that didn’t make it through will be told such and get some feedback. So now I cross my fingers that I somehow made it to that stage.

Given that I’ve spotted all sorts of problems with the script, I’m not going to hold my breath.

On a positive note, I now have a 30 minute script which I can work on and polish up. I’ll be getting some imminent feedback from my current writing class, which is always useful, before I make any changes though. I’m always curious to see if readers point out the same things that I already know are problems.

Tomorrow, it’s off to the Traverse for the BBC writersroom Roadshow. Should be fun!
