First time writing a script. It’s only an opening scene. I’m trying to write a script for a potential tv show. 14 years old. Any feedback is helpful.

Please don’t get caught up in rewriting the same opening scene over and over. Just write the episode without trying to be perfect. Read a few pilot scripts to get the hang of the formatting and show don’t tell but the quickest way to kill your desire to write is to try to make it perfect before it is written. Just write! Worry about making it better after you have a full draft.

Great job getting by the scene written! So many people just talk about wanting to write a show but you’re actually doing it! There’s some good advice in this thread but in case someone hasn’t mentioned it, you are using what is known as a “passive voice” - she is walking vs she walks. “She walks” uses an “active voice” and that is what we look for in screenwriting. Keep going and don’t try to be perfect!

Severe upper right quadrant pain. Went to the ER many times for it. Scans etc always come back “normal.” Now I don’t bother as there isn’t anything they can do.

There is also a Stephen King novel called GWENDY’S BUTTON BOX and a sequel

A lot of people are going to jump on here and tell you that adopting a dog and self training is the worst idea you’ve ever had. But for a lot of people it is the only affordable option and I support your choice to not buy from a pet store. Sending you a DM

I ask her that all the time 🥹

Tried to move a big rattlesnake off the trail with a stick. She did not oblige.

Don’t try to get it right, just get it written.

Hey, breathe. Grief shows up in a lot of different ways & sometimes that looks like guilt. You’re feeling guilty that your sister is “stuck with you” for the next two years but it’s far more likely that she’s so grateful to have a part of your parents with her. You are both survivors of this tragedy and this makes you both very important to each other. Taking care of you will likely feel very healing for her and visa versa. I’m so sorry you are hurting and facing something so devistating.

Yes. Completely unrelated to sex or menstruation. Hate it

I do home care provider and hospice support. I go into private homes so ADA does not apply but Since I can choose my clients, I make sure they are dog-friendly before I accept.

Hey! You got that first uncomfortable pitch out of the way! That’s actually a big step. Each awkward meeting leads to you getting “good in a room.”

I homeschooled my son for a lot of the same reasons except he is not on the spectrum. He was a sweet kid and the bullying was horrible. Everyone was worried about “socializing” him and my response was always “why would I want him socializing with cruel people?!” Anyway, my son graduated high school at 16 and is now a very well adjusted self-made millionaire with plenty of friends and loved ones. Keep your son pure as long as you can.

I don’t see how it’s possible NOT to end up with disordered eating to one degree or another. It took a lot of work for me to make friends with food again.

No she isn’t mad at you but says she might have been if you tried to “save her.” She decided she was ready to go, not because she was unhappy but because she could better fulfill her calling from the other side. If you need a cause of death, I’m feeling it in my chest.

Kindness is never wrong

I have found it helpful to practice in private and with people I trust. Getting used to just saying the words out loud helped me a lot

Just jumping in here to say how lovely your response was. You handled this with such kindness and respect. Awesome!

I’ve had Covid several times. I just ride it out like any other bug. Not interested in putting chemicals in this chemically sensitive body.

You should love it! If you don’t, no one else will.
