Still absolutely no significant contributions to the scripts. I think it’s safe to say that it’s going to be a while before anything happens with them. Especially since work is kind of stressing me out and I am getting rare moments of creativity. There’s also the fact that I’m not very good at writing scripts. I’m much better at writing stories. Maybe I should try doing that and see if it can be translated into a script. I don’t know.
I signed up to do NaNoWriMo this year but I’ve already managed to fail at that, even with just editing and adding to an existing story that I had written a few years ago. I only needed to added about 15,000 words to an existing story and I can’t seem to get that done because inspiration has left me.
I really need to win the lottery because then I can devote my time to writing instead of working and trying to make enough money to get my bills paid. Unfortunately that doesn’t look like it’s going to happen any time soon.
As the great, and fictional, Professor Charles Eppes once said, if you buy 20 lottery tickets a week then you’ll actually hit the jackpot once every 40,000 years. And, of course, with my luck that jackpot winning hit would occur after my death.
I’m at a catch 22. I need to write the script so that I can sell it and get money so I don’t have to work but I need money so I can spend my time writing the script instead of working. It all comes down to the fact that I don’t have enough money to make lots of money.
That really sucks.
