Back To Writing A New Screenplay!!!

Okay, it has been a while since I fired up the old IBM electro-matic typing “fancy” machine thingy!!!

Say what? What in the heck is that? Who knows, I’m just seeing if you are even paying attention.

So, today, I went online “cloud computing” with my CELTX Account, and banged out 5 new pages of movie script!

This may seem completely insignificant to you – but, friends, it literally has been years since I’ve taken to writing or even working on an existing screenplay, so, I’m proud of myself.

Well, as you may know, since Spring 2012 I have been disciplining myself to eat more responsibly and exercise more often. So far I have lost 50+ pounds of FAT, and on January 1st, 2013 I walked 20 miles, and then on January 19th I walked a Marathon (26.3 miles).

So, what does diet and exercise have to do with my writing?

Well, it has educated me on the need to set minor and major goals and that big things can be accomplished over time…. And, that time passes quickly my friends!

In other words, I am making a commitment to myself to write again! Not just write for work, or on Facebook, but real writing of a screenplay, teleplay or novel.

And, just like when I first started walking, one mile, then two miles, the thought of pushing myself to distances like four or five miles scared me to death!

I will now start pushing myself to write, even if it is just one page, or two pages, I will write – every day!

Over time, I will be banging out first drafts of full movie scripts (as bad as they might be) in two to four weeks!

This commitment is NOT to you my friends, sorry and you know in truth that you really don’t care! LOL!!! Right???

NO, this commitment is to myself, just like my diet and exercise commitment has been to myself. 🙂

Sincerely,
~ Eric
