So she took her love for to gaze awhile... ("I like this song. It reminds me of something.")

So. I just realized. Script Frenzy is in a week. And I'm thinking about doing it just to get my brain in a mode where writing is a normal thing to do again.

Thing is, I'm having trouble deciding what to do with it. Right now, there are two options.

Option number one, I rewrite "Lullaby for a Dead Girl" as a play. The basic plot and everything is already there, and it's already very easy to see as a play, it would just be a lot more dialogue. Which, you know. It's not like I have a problem with dialogue.

Option number two, I write a television pilot for On a Saturday. Because I'm just in love with television as a medium, but I've never written a script before. It would require me to do a massive amount of worldbuilding and plotting in the next week, but I'm fairly sure I can do that. And then I have a very good starting place if/when I decide to write it as a novel.

So. What do you think, O great and wise friends list?

Curiosity to see On a Saturday as a TV Pilot leads me to choose that one, although either would be awesome, but saying so is Not Helpful in the slightest. XD

*Giggles* I applaud you for making a decision. The On a Saturday people have just been so loud and obnoxious in my brain lately. And it would be such cracky fun.

I picked Lullaby for a Dead Girl just 'cause I'm partial to the stage :)

I adore the stage. And damn it, one of these days I am going to write "Lullaby for a Dead Girl" as a play because it just works so well that way. It's just a matter of whether I'm doing it next month, or at some unknown point in the future.

I voted for On A Saturday simply because I'd love to see you writing a TV pilot, you've talked about it so much and it seems like you would kick such ass at it. :)
