Football Withdrawls


Recommended Posts

Being able to have access to the NFL Network would really help but in the meantime I'll be pulling for the Canes starting tomorrow night....nobody is giving them much of a chance and that makes me pull for them even more! :cool:

I got about halfway through and then decided to change something that forced a rewrite of everything that I had so far. Eh.....

I wish I could wrap my head around screenwriting. Something about it screws my mind up.

Agreed as it does the same for me. I've tried a couple of times and it doesn't work out too well.

Screenwriting, to me, comes a bit easier than fiction writing, or at least in a few aspects. Having to follow a fairly rigid structure and format forces me to really pin down the plot and story of the screenplay.

I also find my style of writing is akin to what you usually want in a screenplay: minimalistic, yet descriptive.

What I really struggle with, however, is dialogue. Despite being a pretty funny guy (I'm told) in "real life," I can't for the life of me turn out funny dialogue when I'm sitting in front of a computer screen (or legal pad, as it were).

When I'm writing fiction, I feel like I have more liberties as far as the language itself, but I have more trouble getting the story down.

If you're interested in screenwriting, check out "The Art of Dramatic Writing" by Lajos Egri or "Screenwriting 434" by Lew Hunter.

We all need to form a Huddle Writer's Group. :cheers2:

Im watching the NBA playoffs and the canes at the moment. The withdrawl will soon come. Baseball is starting to look like the ugly chick at the bar after a few beers, but at the end of the day i still say hell no.

Sounds good.

I'm getting married in 13 days, so if I don't respond back promptly, don't take that as a lack of interest. Hell, maybe I'll take it with me on my honeymoon. :eek:

Sure fire to shorten any honeymoon!! Lets call it: When Beaux Berry lost his groove.

That reminds me of a funny story.

It was Valentine's Day, and of course I had engaged in all of the prerequisites to a nice and romantic night. I bought the fiance some earrings she was coveting, took flowers to her work, and when we were both home I cooked her a nice dinner (under candlelight, to boot).

Well, the time came to head to bed. Knowing that she was changing into something a bit more comfortable and could take a moment, I popped in the Huddle for what I thought was a brief minute. Turns out someone had posted a link to some crazy deals on Panthers apparel. As I had been wanting a Panthers hoodie for a long time, I jumped at the chance to buy one for $13 plus shipping.

Anyway, she came out of the bathroom to find an empty bed and wasn't very happy. That sweatshirt was the only thing I got that night.

But I don't regret it. :o

All I can say is that I have learned to go for the gusto and buy the hoodie the next day. There is always another hoodie sale but the romantic interludes not so much.
