I end up writing longer scripts and short stories, it's true. (I can't help it! The scenes and events and dialogue - they all just spill out of me!) So what I've decided to do is put them out in installments or parts. This week I've already published a two-part short story (Part 1 & … Continue reading Short ROMANCE Script – “A Day of Birth” – Part 1

There are other things that I do throughout the day. However! I wanted to try something … Continue reading Short Story – “MAGIC” – Installment #1

The idea for this hit me when I made the comparison between the appropriateness of making one's … Continue reading Short ADULT Script – “Fire” by Cameron Reilly

(I'll admit that it feels weird writing a short story THIS … Continue reading Short Story – “Relational Death” – 3 KEY POINTS FOR A CREATIVE EXERCISE
Short “CORNY” Script – “The Chief Architect” by Cameron Reilly
I'm just going to come right out and say it: This script it corny. It's got that inspirational feel, but you know at all times where it's headed. But sometimes we need that - sometimes we need that reassurance that everything's going to be all right. Sometimes fate needs to say, "It'll all work out" … Continue reading Short “CORNY” Script – “The Chief Architect” by Cameron Reilly
