when will it all go wrong?

I Love Luci is a script for a short film.  It's based on an encounter I had with two very amiable drug addicts I met while having a cigarette outside my office.

I don't know their names, but lets call them Tommy and Marjory.  They had a dog with them - lets call him Luci.

This series of events led me to write a short script that I hope to make into a film very soon.  This blog is about that journey, warts and all.  I aim to be as candid as possible about the things that happen to me as I go through the process, not in a retrospective way either, but as I live and breathe it.  This means that anything you spot as a short-minded act of idiocy on my part is more than welcome as a comment - even if your first reaction is that I shouldn't be writing about this, send it in.

As you join me the script, I Love Luci, has been well received by everyone who's read it, apart from a competition I entered it into - they rejected it, my one big kick in the teeth so far. 

Resigned to the thought that this is still a good story and one worth telling I'm ploughing on regardless.

I'm now on my 7th draft of the script (something you're not meant to tell people by the way).  I have a wonderful fledgling producer, a fantastic production company, tentative interest from a major funder and the terrifying prospect that this might just all work.

I'm waiting for the ground to open up.
