\"Deadlines\"Let\u2019s welcome back monthly columnist\u00a0Nevada McPherson<\/a>\u00a0as she shares with us \u201cDeadlines Revisited.\u201d Enjoy!<\/p>\n

***
\nIn the last few weeks I\u2019ve been working on completing some projects to clear the decks for new ones I\u2019m about to start.<\/strong> I\u2019m also about to begin rewrites on some much older projects that I haven\u2019t worked on in quite a long time. These older projects now seem new as I read them after an extended cooling-off period. The author Ray Bradbury once said that when he completed a story he would often put it in a drawer not to look at it again for a year. Sometimes if we need to get something done we don\u2019t have the luxury of putting a project away for that long, but these projects have been hiding out for well over a year. How do I feel about them now that I\u2019m looking at them again? Are they better than I remember? Worse? Well, both.<\/p>\n

On the positive side I\u2019m pleased about my attention to detail and the way the characters are very distinct with their own quirky interests, hopes and fears.<\/strong> There\u2019s a great deal of local color included in my New Orleans-set screenplay, Egyptomania, including mentions of once-popular places that \u201cain\u2019t dere no more\u201d (referring to the local band Benny Grunch and the Bunch\u2019s song about beloved stores, institutions and traditions that were there for years and now are gone). In my screenplay there are places that I used to walk past almost daily, pieces of my everyday life that, now that I no longer live in New Orleans, I don\u2019t get to experience anymore. What could be better as I revisit past works than to revisit these places in my work?<\/p>\n

Overall, I\u2019m pleased with my dialogue in this script but there are places where, now that I\u2019ve written several other screenplays since then, and adapted others into books, I see where the dialogue could be leaner and richer with subtext.<\/strong> In fact, there are places in the description that could be trimmed without losing anything. When I wrote this screenplay, I was under a tough time constraint trying to write a screenplay in a month. For those who have ever participated in NaNoWriMo, where during the month of November writers attempt to write a novel in one month, you know the pressure of writing a longer piece of work under such a deadline: the peaks and valleys, highs and lows of writing your story in a hurry. One wonderful thing about taking on such a challenge such as a contest is that you get it done. On the other hand, a less wonderful thing is that it could maybe use another draft\/ rewrite\/ polish before it\u2019s at its best. Nevertheless, having it done even if it is a big, rough piece of rock rather than a polished and refined sculpture is definitely better than no rock at all.<\/p>\n

One thing that I seek to work on in this rewrite is the ending.<\/strong> I believe I\u2019ve gotten better at endings, but something about the ending of this story always seemed a bit rushed and a little too \u201ceasy\u201d to me. That\u2019s another pitfall of writing something in a hurry \u2013 you tend to rush things, but sometimes you have to to get it over the transom, to beat the deadline. Of course that doesn\u2019t excuse a substandard ending, but that\u2019s the reason they sometimes happen. I have room in my page count to develop and improve this one considerably, so that\u2019s what I intend to do.<\/p>\n

Happy writing!
