THANK GOODNESS FOR INSPIRATION
I'd been having a bit of a block about how to develop the end of my current screenplay and started to write down alternative plot lines that could get from where I was to what I want the end to be.
In a flash of inspiration it came to me that one of the plot lines I had already developed was creating the problem because it established a time frame in which events could not happen as fast as I needed them to.
I have gone back to the beginning, deleting all references to that plot line and immediately I can see where to go next.
I can't think why I hadn't realised it before, and I have no idea where that flash of inspiration came that showed me the answer. Thank the writing Gods for it, anyway.
I live in Mandurah, Western Australia, where, when I am not dabbling in painting, playing my guitar and trying to grow old gracefully, I am currently writing a screen play.
