I signed in to Script Frenzy this morning, and none too soon! It’s time to get geared up. Except I probably won’t actually participate. I probably won’t have time.

At the close of last year’s Script Frenzy, which I did not participate in, the Frenzies posted some “lessons learned” kinda things that look like good advice.

Alliance Library seems to be back online so I have been assaulting the server with interlibrary loan requests for books on scriptwriting. I said in a previous post that I prefer writing to reading — I didn’t say I don’t read! I feel kind of sorry for the local library. I overwhelm them with loan requests and some of the librarians are baffled by such the very concept. But it is a tiny library and I hardly ever find anything there I want aside from old movies, some still on vhs.

I love that I can submit requests online and wait for the phone to ring when they are here. Now, if they would just send the books to my house instead of to the library. Like Netflix for books. BookFlix. NetBooks. SendMeABook. BookByPost.

I guess it sound like I’m going to do Script Frenzy. I’m still not committing to it.

At least it is only 20,000 words. Half what Nano was. I wrote 52,784 words for Nano and could have written more.

I still don’t think I’ll actually do Script Frenzy. Nevertheless, I checked in already. The 2008 forums are up and running even though the contest doesn’t begin until April Fool’s Day. Oh, my god, did they REALIZE that?!?!

It turns out that IF someone were going to do Script Frenzy, they should be looking into it now. It’s not too early to plan.

What is Script Frenzy?
