quick notes
- http://adteo.blogspot.com is my second blog, made expressly for the posting of my scripts as I finish them. So far I have six of the 11 episodes up there. I'll probably put the rest up tomorrow. If you haven't read them before, please feel free. Writers love it when people read their work. Anyway, if you do, keep in mind that the setting isn't important, as it's all about the dialogue and character interaction (except the first few episodes, when I had to establish what ADTE was). Don't let the sci-fi aspect throw you; it's simply the catalyst for the characters. Also, Episode 1 is probably my least favorite; my rythym was off, and I don't like some of the "jokes." And please, please feel free to comment and criticize. So far, the people who have read them have all been very nice, or say they "don't get it." The latter is hard to work around, since it's not very explanatory as to the nature of the problem. Anywho...

I've heard that people don't like to use anything that's been posted on the internet for the sake of copyright . . . whatever. lol I'm tired. So, I don't know if you care or what, but I just thought I'd mention it.
Yeah...basically, if it's posted on the internet in full form, it can be very hard to get published/used by producers. It becomes an unknown factor for them, as it's very hard to keep track of coyrights and the like, and also, it already has been "published" or "Made Public" by posting on the internet. So....yeah. Just something to keep in mind. A way around this is to only post a couple parts at a time and then take those off when you finish the rest. Or, post them on bona-fide reviewing website. However, I'll stop with these comments and say that I think your writing is very good, particularly your dialogue--which is good, as that's what you are emphasizing. I also think your characters are interesting, and in general, I do seem to get it. I have trouble understanding how someone might not get it...but maybe that's just me. So yeah. I'll have to try to read the last few.
hmm, well, I don't intend to ever publish these, as they are kind of crudely crafted, and there's too many flaws. But thanks for the warnings.
yeah, I read all six of them again last night. . .so get the rest up there soon. ;P
