Revision

Paragraph Before -

Come closer, I have a story to tell you. Many years ago, when the world was just beginning to be powered by machines and industry, there was a Cataclysm. Fire and rocks rained down upon Earth and great pieces of land broke away from it only to hover in the sky teasing the now barren wasteland that was left of the planet. Upon the earth there were tumultuous winds that crafted a desert, and giant fissures left behind by the Event. Very few had survived and would not survive long in the gusts of the deserts. So they began to cry out to me, the God of the universe, to have mercy upon them. And I heard their cries and sent my most beloved Angel Ceraphi to bring them hope.

Paragraph After -

Many years ago at the beginning of the Industrial Age there was a Cataclysm. The Earth was covered in fire and great pieces of land broke away only to be held in place several miles above the wasteland left over. All that was left of the Earth were great desserts swept by violent winds and deep fissures. The humans that survived began to cry out to God for mercy. He heard their cries and sent Ceraphi, his most beloved Angel, to bring them hope.

J - Come on Kelly you don’t think that I would actually stop to anything like that. I just used some good old fashion charm!

K - Suuuure you did. Last think I heard you were smooth talking the grocer into giving you an appl there is no way you didn’t won these tickets by a contest.

J - Ok so maaaaaaaybe I took the clerk out for dinner.

Kelly puts a hand on her hop and cocks an eyebrown

J - Fine…and cocktails at my place after but I swear! Nothing more than that.

K - James I swear on all that is holy I don’t know how you can date a new one each week! Whoe was it before, cookie?

J - Cookie was last month, candy was last wek. Drat it all Kelly I know I’m not perfect but I am picky and I still cant find a girl that hold =s my interest for more than a week or two. New York is full of boring women.

K - Oh like me? Kelly’s face looks hurt despite the laughter in her voice

J - No no no, not you. You’re perfect! Great body, great style and the most killer smile in all of Manhattan. How come it isn’t you with a new man each week?

K - James, I only have eyes for you…. Kelly loops an arm through his and they enter the ticket booth

J - Two for the show please

Directions - 2 minutes write the same exact script - they must fall in love by the end. (loud noise)

k - James how the heck did you manage to get these tickets? I’ve been on the waiting list for this show for a week!

J - I have my ways Kelly.

K - Oh I know your ways James, I’ve seen you work your wiles on the grocer for an apple.

J - Oh come on. You don’t think I would stoop to that for a pair of broadway tickes do you?

Kelly is in mid eye brow cock when a loud honk blares from behind them

James turns and says “Whats the matter with you!” at a cabi and turns back to Kelly

J - Listen all I did was take the clerk out for dinner, its possible she came back to my place for cocktails but I swear that’s all that happened.

K - Ok ok I believe you but these better be the real deal or I swear I’ll kill you with my bare hands.

Some posts

12 Guideposts for acting:

1) Relationship-establishing the relationships between characters

2) What are you fighting for? What is there main objective (what is conflict)

3) The moment before. What just happened to the character?

4) Humor-lightens the mood

5) Opposites-different interpretation

6) Discoveries-find something new to the character

7) Communication/competition- communicate under the line

8) Importance-what is vitally important

9) Find the events-display the emotion

10) Place- where you’re at

11) Game play/role play-whose going to win the game? A role within a role

12) Mystery/secret-if you tell yourself you have a secret you need to keep it away from someone it energizes the scene. Makes audience want more.

Florida road trip observations

There are two things about Missouri that bother me. Their mile markers are every 2 tenths of a mile....and they put their cemeteries on hill sides. Weird Freaking Missouri.

Cats - The noise reverberating from my cat sends a vibration through my fingertips and tickles my arms into producing goose bumps.

Shoes - All I could thing about was the clicking of her shoes on the hard tile floor, and how it echoed in my mind like a machine gun.

Spring - That first thought of Spring is all squashy and wet, like the grassy yard after an April shower.

Bubbles - As I pried my face off the slick linoleum floor my first thought isn't the bruise I'd have tomorrow but the great waste as my favorite glass jar of bubble bath spilled broken onto the floor.
