School is going really well. I just finished taking Editing For Screenwriting and I got a B in the class! It surprised the heck out of me because editing is a weakness of mine. I spoke to one of my teachers today and she said," It's good that you know your weakness to work on." I agree 100%, but I won't lie and say it isn't frustrating to work so hard at something and still not excel. But, I did okay, I got a B in the class. When editing any piece of writing, please TAKE YOUR TIME. I know we like to run spell check and think it's great once we see, " SPELLING AND GRAMMAR CHECK IS COMPLETE!" WRONG!!! Spell check doesn't check for grammar as well as it should. Trust me, I learned the hard way!! My issue with editing is that I'm comma crazy. I will place a comma every and anywhere, but I was taught that a comma is like a pause. Shame on that teacher who told me that in middle school! I'm a work in progress! So, now I'm in my portfolio class where I am going over my script again and critiquing someone else's script! Yikes!!! How can I tell someone else about their work, when I don't even know about mine being correct? Nonsense! But, I'm going to do my best. I mean, after all, that's all I can do, right?
That's all for now. Just wanted you to know what was going on with me over here. OH!!! I almost forgot, I'm filming a movie next month. Yes, my film, "If It Ain't Broke Don't Fix It will be filmed in May! I'm so excited! There will also be a casting call April 20, 2013 from 10am-2pm here:
