Umm...I think I may have written a story outline tonight.
I was sitting in my favorite chair when an old story idea for a feature that I'd shelved a long time ago popped into my head. I got a vague idea of what I wanted to happen in the first act, but not much else. So, I got up, moved to the study, and started writing.
Three hours later, I have an outline, a theme, and pretty clear vision of how to approach the script.
I've had this kind of spontaneous vomit of a story with a short film, but nothing this lengthy. Anyone else have this happen before? I'm sure it has, and I'd like to hear about it.
We'll see where it goes from here. This year's resolution was to write every night. When I made it, I didn't think I'd be writing a story like this, but maybe it's what I need to do right now. Funny how inspiration works sometimes.
