I just wrote —
FADE TO BLACK
THE END
— on my 1950s superhero adventure script.
Second draft is done. Came in at 116 pages, which I’m very happy about. It’s just one good, thorough rewrite away from finished.
So you’ll all be getting my blog updates back very soon. I miss you guys, I really do. Stay golden, all of you.
No, I mean it. Shine on, you crazy diamonds.
Congrats!

Hi Xander,
First time listener, first time caller here. And also a first-time scriptwriter, so I appreciate reading about your experiences too! Congrats on finishing the draft! Hope you’re doing something awesome to celebrate.

Congratulations! What’s the character’s name?
I’m rewriting mine (again) featuring a hero from the 40’s - The Knightmare.

Kudos. It’s the best feeling in the world, short, I suppose, of hearing: “We’d like to buy it.”
