FINAL NWC UPDATE!

My goals starting November Write Club were to finish my Thriller script "Don't Fall In" (my main goal) and finish a writing job. I completed the writing job, and I wrote some pages for "Don't Fall In."

I then switched my main goal to finishing three jobs that I got through Stage 32. I'm waiting to start two of the jobs, but I've been working on the main job (a rewriting job). I got a lot of work done on the main job. I plan to be done with that job in 1-2 weeks.

I also added mini goals throughout November (such as rewrite a pitch), which I finished.

What's next? Finish the rewriting job, start/finish the other two jobs, work on different projects, pitch my scripts and projects, build more relationships in the industry, continue learning screenwriting/the business side of the industry, and more.

NWC has been great! Thank you to everyone for the support, encouragement, and motivation! Thanks for hosting NWC, Emily!

Congratulations to everyone who reached their goals or made progress on their goals! I'm cheering you on for your next goals! :D

Maurice Vaughan wow, Maurice, that’s quite a productive month. Well done.

I was happy to finish the draft of the short film script!

Well done to everyone who contributed to this wonderful community of writers for the NWC. You are amazing!

Thanks, Geoff Hall. Congratulations again on finishing the draft of your short film script! Congratulations to everyone who made progress on their NWC goals and those who finished! Looking forward to hearing about what everyone does in December! :D

That's pretty cool, Lawrence Whitener! What kind of project is that?

I just finished the outline for my new script, and tomorrow I’m starting to write it! I hope to have the first draft done by the end of November.

Making posters for my scripts really motivates me — it makes the project feel real. Here’s the poster for my new script.

Congratulations on finishing your outline, Kseniia Zhuravleva! I'm rooting for you to finish the first draft by the end of the month!

That's the spirit and the resolve, Banafsheh Esmailzadeh! I like your optimism about NWC and reaching your goal.

Thank you Maurice Vaughan and John Mezes! It’s definitely been a busy month so far and Finding Elpis is almost done editing lol. Can’t wait to finish Rondo of Pandora so it can get a table read~

You're welcome, Banafsheh Esmailzadeh.

That's great, Maria Restivo Glassner! Congratulations on rewriting your one-sheet, finishing your first draft of Act I, and progressing! Are you taking the animation class on Stage 32?

Maurice Vaughan Yes, it's with Evan Anglin. Great class.

Thanks, Maria Restivo Glassner. I'll keep an eye out for Evan Anglin's classes in the future.

I've seen "The November Man," Colette "ByFilms" Byfield. It was a while ago.

I love the "ROByn" concept. I hope Nov. brought some good writing Maurice!

Thanks, Becky. "ROByn" is in rewrites. How are you doing?

You're welcome, GJ Harvey. Which of your scripts is the feedback for?

Maurice Vaughan “Still in Time” which made the semis this year. Got some insightful feedback to work on.

Congratulations, GJ Harvey! Still in Time has one of the most unique concepts I've seen!

Congratulations on finishing the polish, Lisa Weiss! I hope you enjoy your break! Keep us posted on your scripts.

@Maurice Vaughan Thanks! I always need to take a week or two off after a heavy polish.

You're welcome, Lisa Weiss. I usually start a new project after finishing one, but I take a break sometimes. Sometimes a day, two days, a week, etc.

Thanks Maurice Vaughan! 30 will be a cinch, the new characters and situations are proving lots of fun, and there's more than a little drama and conflict lol (it's what happens when you have a lot on your plate like Elpis does xD) The new character Tempête is a good sort of challenging, can't wait to see who gets cast as him in the table read~

You're welcome, Banafsheh Esmailzadeh. I'm not sure if you've read this blog or not, but Nathan Waire set up a table read for his script, using 100% of the talent through Stage 32. www.stage32.com/blog/stage-32-community-brings-project-to-life-over-zoom...

I will read it Maurice Vaughan, and someday I'll try to have a Stage32-based table read as well :D

Interesting, Geoff Hall. Do you have a logline for it?

Y'all, this is one of my FAVORITE events each year! I started out doing NaNoWriMo, but if you're not writing a novel, then the goal doesn't really serve your needs. So, I LOVE that we've adapted the same initiative - to make one last creative push to complete something before the end of the year - to our global and varied creative community!

My question to y'all is - what are you doing to keep yourselves accountable? If you're looking for writing or peer-review groups who can help you keep on task, I HIGHLY recommend joining the Stage 32 Writer's Room! PLUS, the first month is free if you sign up here: https://www.stage32.com/writers-room/plans-vip

Check out the blog for more information on the event, and check out the Writer's Room for more info on how it can shorten your path to success!

Leonardo Ramirez nope, but it follows a writer who is seeing a therapist and is told that he’s suffering from an anonymity complex…

Maurice Vaughan well done, Maurice, that’s great to hear that you’ve made progress with your targets. Not so much then like a downhill skiing event where the fastest wins, but more of a slalom where you have to navigate numerous gates to stay on track. Huzzah, Maurice!

Thanks, Geoff Hall. I really appreciate it. I'm thinking about switching to a different script for December (than my NWC script). Either way, I'm gonna get some writing done!

Maurice Vaughan nice one!
