Sol, I paid for another year just a couple of days ago. My account was due to expire in November anyway. I have no idea how it will extend after the crisis is over, but I'm sure it will be fair. My points are fine, but I lost a huge amount of connections in the crash. Just now trying to eliminate some I haven't heard from in 15 years or so.

Bill

My points are just fine at 947.22. However, I did lose about eight pages of connections. I'm down to two and a half pages and all of them are quite old connections. So, anyone who reads this can check theirs and see if we're still connected or not. I suspect there will be a flurry of connection requests in the near future.

Couldn't you double-space it in an external editor and Copy/Paste it into Gmail?

Bill

It is spam.

Ah. There you go. Use that 'maybe one scene' to write out the stage movements as well as the spoken dialogue. Full scripts can be tedious to read, but the snippet, if it contains a key element to the plot, would be something the reader would retain for use later in the story. I don't know the genre of your story, but if it is a mystery or the like, then your MCs participation in the scene would be crucial.

Bill

Hmm, true that. When I re-read the clip, I didn't stop to count the exclamation marks as the dialogue was fascinating enough. I think you might let it stay as is--good and dramatic. Leave them in.

I have a hard time believing I LOST 1.5 pounds this Thanksgiving. So, that's what I'm thankful for. Good tidings to everyone.

Bill

Well done, Randy. Who did the narration?

Bill

I've lived in both the Philippines and Thailand where that's the generic name for the beast. It is used mostly for plowing fields and hauling carts.

This is a little more visual:

(Three elephants and a caribou walk into a bar......)

I stopped going when I got my first pair of hearing aids. The music was SO LOUD and the dialogue was so soft I could barely hear it. That was over 15 years ago.
