Day 27: the theme for the day is embracing the pivot. Being open to the possibilities in this story and the changes needed to bring them to life. My goal in making the path of the story more visual through the stickies isn’t to take a pit stop in the thick of specific beats. It’s really to be able to see cause and effect in real time and to be able to track what’s what. I’ll see things that will need to be cleaned up but not yet, it’s all prep. It’s funny that I didn’t do too much to get ready for this challenge, I just kind of spun the wheel of ideas I had and landed here. And now, being at this point of day 27/31 and having time to slow down before I edit is something I can’t take for granted. Finding the balance of giving myself the best starting point, and not thinking about the fine details (at this point) is key.
After I get through a round of edits I definitely want to share the first page with y’all but for now, I’ll just set the scene with the logline.
Two sentimental 30-somethings in love with love half heartedly delegate the course of their next relationship to self-proclaimed relationship gurus after one too many wrong turns.
Day 28 tomorrow - until then, I’ll catch you at the movies ✌🏾
