One month. FADE IN to FADE OUT. Creativity meets Productivity.
Write an entire draft of a script in March — 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!

Today’s Writing Quote
“It’s like you run into a dark tunnel, trusting somewhere there’s an end to it where you’re going to come out.”
— Pete Docter
Today’s Inspirational Video
J.K. Rowling speaking at the Harvard University commencement in 2008.
Rowling’s personal story is almost as compelling as the fiction she writes.
Today’s Loos Award winner: Holly Nault Pullar Soriano.
On March 1, Holly posted this in the Zero Draft Thirty Facebook group.
Screw it! I have a feature idea that I want to do. It’s to apply to the Sundance Feature Film Program. Why not? I have until May 18th to get a draft together to submit for a writing lab rather than having to have it done.
That’s the Zero Draft spirit. As our Spirit Guide Shia Labeouf tells us:
For the inspiration she provides by taking on this challenge, the recipient of today’s Anita Loos Award is Holly Nault Pullar Soriano!

Why not join the Zero Draft Thirty Facebook group? It’s a terrific community and during this month’s challenge, we are hosting a Zoom Room where you can enter and join others for writing scampers. Video on. Microphone off. It’s like you’re in a virtual café. With no coffee. No music. No noise.
Okay, so it’s not like you’re in a café. But you are in a virtual room with other writers from all around the world. Keeps you working, I’ll tell you that!
Onward!
