Fighting Words


Anthony Grieco's profile

Okay, I'm now going to make a conscious effort to blog more often. In order to do this they're going to be short, opinionated, and sometimes nasty. I invite anyone and everyone to join in, comment, and hate me if you want to. And just to note, I will try and relate all of it, even today's politics, to writing.

Let's begin.

You are a bad screenwriter and you privately know it. You don't read enough...of anything. You didn't pay attention in English class. You think most movies are bad and could have done a better job yourself. Your screenplay's structure resembles the lack of any in your life. Your dialogue rivals that of soft-core porn. You invest more time pondering why the middle hole of your script doesn't require a fastener than fixing the hole in the middle of your second act.

How are you going to fix this?
