7:04 pm janetvaneeden: @DreamsGrafter #scriptchat One of the hardest things when writing full time from home is to get others to respect yr writing time & space
7:04 pm momentsoffilm: Hello #scriptchat What a topic!
7:04 pm yeah_write: I think it'd be harder to be a fulltime writer and write, than fitting into 70-80 hour work week like I do. Too easy to put off. #scriptchat
7:05 pm momentsoffilm: #scriptchat I'm shocking at having any kind of organised writing schedule. I tend to do it when I feel like it. Very unproductive of me! :D
7:05 pm DreamsGrafter: @janetvaneeden It's an ideal scenario to be writing full time but I think it's still very hard bc of the discipline. #scriptchat
7:05 pm madskiadrai: #SCRIPTCHAT I usually write in the morning time. Sometimes before sunrise. It's the best time to write for me. #scriptchat

12:40 am GCGeek: @jtabergas @Jonathan_Peace Congrats you two! I expect acceptance speeches, in 110 characters or less. #scriptchat
12:40 am geofflatulippe: @TheWriteScript I don't know if there's a "best" genre. A great script is a great script. #scriptchat
12:41 am sdarancette: I win! #scriptchat Nah, just seeing if anyone is on their toes.
12:41 am rachlanger: @geofflatulippe When do you involve someone else in your script in terms of getting a read? How soon is too soon? #scriptchat
12:41 am dwacon: @ninehourfilms True. TONS of production in the government and commercial worlds. #scriptchat
12:41 am yeah_write: RT @jolenejahnke: @geofflatulippe Q: Whats your writing process like? Do you start with plot or with your characters? #scriptchat
12:41 am The_Jodi: RT @Todfilm: @SharkGoddess I think you're more likely to get noticed with one great script than with a handful of just okay scripts. #scriptchat
12:41 am PennyAsh: Congrats to the winners :) #scriptchat
12:41 am LesannSartor: Dang, late, but here now. #scriptchat
12:41 am tracinell: Q. @geofflatulippe I've heard that writers are the dirt that the totem pole sits on, how were you treated during this process? #scriptchat
12:41 am geofflatulippe: @jtabergas I wrote it over like four days, but those days were spread out over about six months. Long story. #scriptchat

12:42 am nate_winslow: @scott_logie Mm, I can believe that. I think in feature-land he's pretty responsible. Showrunning is egotistical heaven. #scriptchat
12:42 am jeannevb: its a list of great unproduced scripts RT @saturdayknight: @zacsanford2 whats this black list? #scriptchat

12:42 am geofflatulippe: @jolenejahnke It depends on which is more fleshed out in my mind at the time. Usually it's character. I plan very little. #scriptchat
12:43 am blankethouse: @KageyNYC @jeannevb @geofflatulippe crap, did I miss the cake? Lol #scriptchat
