The missing pieces to my dormant script include (to my surprise): a receipt, a strip club, and a pivotal moment in a public bathroom. Can’t help but be reminded of this scene as a result, though it does not involve any violence, merely the same voyeuristic/impactful qualities.

Back in this.

“Originally there were two pages of dialogue in which Harrison [Ford] explained why he was leaving and the Amish woman gave her feelings to him. It was very literal, and I cut it all because we didn’t need it. The producer told me that the studio would never accept it because we need to know what they are feeling. I knew that if I had done my job properly, you would know exactly how they were feeling by the time it was all cut together.” - Peter Weir, director WITNESS (1985)

Plot line diagram from last summer when I first went back into the script after 4 years and wanted to get a sense of direction. I haven’t looked at crutches like this since then; a false sense of security when ultimately embracing the unknown.

In the middle of working on a scene last night, I realized the wallpaper of my computer had been a subtle contributor to the writing process over the past several months, along with a good cup of coffee, the right music, and a good block of time to myself.
