In love with my characters...

And on page 76 of the screenplay.

I couldn't have gotten this far without my love of them.

I love Nina. The screenplay Nina is sort of just sucked through the story. I worry that I need to do something to bring more of her out through the dialogue. But, eh, I'm not really writing a movie here. It's just a really long writing exercise for me anyway.

I love, love John. I love his tortured head. I love his sad life and the good that's to come for him. I love writing the details that have made him who he is. I love revealing him through the other minor characters. He's not in the dialogue too much. Mostly in flashbacks. I may have to add more of him, though- I really like writing him.

The other characters are fun too. I like most of them. I'm not sure how to balance them all in the story- jut like when I wrote the novel version. I'm still riding with training wheels here, folks.

Anyway, I just wanted to express the joy of writing. I just love thinking as other people.
