This may be a really really bad idea, but I’ve signed up for this year’s Script Frenzy in April.

The challenge is to write 100 pages of screenplay in the 30 days of April. Should be interesting – assuming I can get my brain and motivation into gear.

Anyway, I’ve signed up, and we’ll see how it goes.

So – the first month. (OK, six weeks)  I’ve been working on starting a number of projects as part of this big “Finger Out” plan. There’s a long way to go yet, and work has also kicked in heavily over January, which has meant I’ve not been able to do as much as I planned to.

However, what I have achieved so far is :

• Started a new online writing project, which will either work out or won’t.
• Started the photography business on a new site, although not done anything with it yet.  It’s been going prior to this on a different site, but I’ve never been overly happy with it, so it’s time to re-do things.
• Written a couple of spec letters for getting some photography projects in order to build up the portfolio
• Started organising myself for the Amateur Photographer “Amateur Photographer of the Year” competition. I’ve done little bits of this before, but again I’m hoping that I can complete the entire thing this year. I don’t expect to win, or even place, but I’m going to at least try.

There’s other stuff coming up too, but things have changed and/or delayed a bit so far this year.  There’ll be more progress updates as we go on, along with anything else I can think of.
