- Another key scene down.
- I think I managed to both embrace and then subvert an expectation.

- Started working on another high emotion high energy group scene for the final act. But needs more attachment to whole group. Might have to write this last.

SIWC: Day 40
- In an effort to sort through what I’m working with… I did the cue card thing.
- Named each scene to a card, laid them out, and played with the order. It was helpful to see what’s missing, where the momentum is, and how to maximize contrast
- rewrote and intercut two monologues too!

- Wrote a little
- Read about structure a lot
- Wrote a little bit more.
- Created a kind of looping text that shows contrast between characters. But also highlights how weirdly similar they are. Made it like madlibs.
- I honestly cannot believe how long this streak has gone.

SIWC: Day 38
- Worked on two impactful scenes that tie in together
- One at the midpoint.
- One at the emotional climax. This scene is in progress.
- It remains fun kind of finding the threads through the chaos of this expansive world

SIWC: Day 37
- Did some tedious work today.
- A bunch of my writing has been kind of dialogue between groups of people without a clear distinction of character, so I spent a couple hours naming a bunch of people, and further defining characters in scenes.

- Writing is rewriting…
- Spent a few hours filling in the blanks this afternoon
- Cool milestone: Currently sitting at 42 pages (in my weird formatting), which exceeds the length of any play I’ve ever wrote! And I don’t think I’m anywhere close to being done
- Happy NYE!

- Wrote two story-based motivational speeches (that don’t suck!) for the characters who needed them.
- Was nice to play in a specific style and rhetoric.
- I’ve also been reading through the mega draft wondering where to fill in the blanks.

SIWC: Day 30
- Didn’t like my initial writing today
- So tried writing a plot point three different ways. With different characters. In different locations.
- I still don’t know which one works best. Not sure any will stick. Hope it seems obvious tomorrow… 🫠
- But something is better than nothing!
