Ward

[miriam_e]

I know I haven't been updating here. Sorry. My screnzy (Script Frenzy) piece is called "Ward". After just 2 days I'm a little disappointed at how difficult I'm finding this. I'm a tenth of the way done already, but am really struggling because it is so difficult to convey the story with just one character (whose idiot idea was that anyway?? oh, yeah, mine). There is so much ground to cover... how the hell am I going to do it??? I think I should have spent more time mapping out the middle instead of working out the beginning, end, and rationale.

Anyway, I'm gradually adding to it here as one long file:

I'm doing screnzy too, which to be honest is just madness for me, but I think it's the sort of madness I need to keep me sane. I've never written a script of any kind before. It should be interesting.

Good luck!

Thanks. :) Best of luck to you too (though a powerhouse like you doesn't need luck).
What software are you using?

I'm just using a text editor with a couple of simple macros for roughly the desired indenting in html so I can put it straight on the web. The main coding is in the head of the html with just a few short style definitions... keeps it all simple and easy to write. Of course it lacks all the frills for printing up, but I could probably import it into OpenOffice if I ever needed to do that, which is pretty unlikely. :)

By the way, don't know if I mentioned it before, but gosh I love that inventive peace icon!

Thank you. (: Although this time around, I don't think luck OR powerhousing will work for me... I'm in Spain for 10 days starting Tuesday and my exams start the 30th (I've got two exams that day plus a huge assessment due) and I haven't got much done so far.

So unless I write a lot while I'm in Spain, which I doubt since we'll be doing a lot, I don't think I'll get it done. April just isn't a good month for me, even with break. I'm using scripped.com, nothing fancy, laughter.

Thanks! Just ganked it off the Internet, but I sure do like it. C:
