I've heard this from multiple writers, so maybe there's something to it 😊

I like to read a lot of half-hour scripts, simply because it doesn't take all bloody day to get through them.

Here's the top 5 biggest issues that I see cropping up time and time again.

A gentle reminder that shit happens outwith your control, but it's not always a true reflection of you or the quality of your writing.

It's just life.

Happy Friday y'all!

It's really noticeable when a writer adds hooks at the end of scenes (not just the major beats), and Readers really appreciate it.

Ensuring that there's a nugget that leaves you wanting more is how you get the reader to keep turning the page.

Il faut lire la justification de la police, c'est digne d'une mauvaise shortcom française :

C'est pas not' faut', "il faut savoir que l’État a changé la poudre dans les cartouches pour payer moins cher".

Of course, the bigger question is, "How does anyone know if their script is excellent or not?"

Easy. Pay for decent script coverage or read tons of screenplays.

As much as we want the hero to win, they've got to have struggled enough along the way to deserve the prize at the end.

Use these random plot points if you're running dry on how to up the conflict.

#Kaamelott2part1 : Astier's still struggling to convert his shortcom format to a longer, more serious, more dramatic one : pacing is off, some familiar faces are missing + although some bits work, it all feels scattershot. 3/6

Could any of these plot twist variations help your ending pack a more powerful punch?

Thanks to the writer for sending this in. I had limited time, so only really focused on one element.

Really enjoyed the writing style.

Ever stop to really consider who will be reading your script or watching the end product?

While you can't please everyone, understanding that different people look for different things in a spec script might help give you an advantage.

Women's health. A 30 minute video from @theguardian.com summarizes the Lindsay Clancy case (and includes the Latarsha Sanders case). Both in Boston.

In both cases, the medical system failed these mothers. Post-partum psychosis overtook them and they tragically killed their children.

I spent 6 weeks without my mother at age 10 days when my mother was involuntarily put into a psychiatric hospital with post partum depression. While I’m alive, she admitted to hitting me. Tons of evidence says she was having psychiatric issues.

There's a thin line between being vague and overly specific, so aim for the sweet spot.
