I don’t know if I should admit this or not, but…um…I finished the extra credit homework yesterday.
I told you I had trouble setting aside my writing projects!
What happened was I thought about the extra credit and determined that it was only busy work. That it wouldn’t really improve the script at this point. So I set it aside, since I detest busy work.
But then…
Scenarios kept going through my head. Different things I could try with those last two scenes. Ways that might, or might not, improve the script. I played with changing the setting, characters, even tweaks to the plot.
I hit on an idea that I loved, and that was that. Before I realized it I had gotten my computer out and completed the assignment (I notice that here it sounds like a quick thing, but I spent several hours rewriting).
Oh well! I guess there are worse things than being addicted to writing!
