2019 Zero Draft Thirty September Challenge: Day 3

One month. FADE IN to FADE OUT. Creativity meets Productivity.

Zero Draft Thirty: Day 3.

Write an entire draft of a script in September — FADE IN. FADE OUT. Or any sort of creative goal you have in front of you.

Feature length movie screenplay. Original TV pilot. Rewrite a current project. Break a story in prep. Generate a month’s worth of story concepts.

Whatever you feel will ratchet your creative ambitions into overdrive…

DO THAT!

September 1: You type FADE IN / “Once upon a time…”
September 30: You type FADE OUT / “…They all lived happily ever after.”

It’s free! It’s fun! It’s Fade In to Fade Out!

Today’s Writing Quote

“It’s really important to start off well. If you grab people early in a script, they’re going to keep reading.”

— Carter Blanchard

Zero Draft Thirty: Day 2

Each day this month, I’ll post a Zero Draft Thirty Challenge post here at Go Into The Story. And as I’ve done with every past Challenge, I will hand out an award for a notable Tweet, Facebook post, or comment here on the blog. This cycle, the winner will receive the inaugural Ben Hecht Award!

Today’s Ben Hecht Award winner: Thom Harp. Check out these tweets and get pumped up to write.

That’s the spirit of the Zero Draft Challenge. Just WRITE. You’re not concerned with perfection, rather you’re laser focused on production. Pound out pages and see where this journey of discovery takes you.

For that bit of inspiration, the recipient of today’s Ben Hecht Award is Thom Harp. Congratulations, Thom!

Now all you Zeronauts, Scamperers, Word Warriors, and Outlaws… time to deposit derriere on chair…

And WRITE!
