I've been challenged to write a script. There is no bet involved so it's not cheating.
The challenge is from a published swedish author. He's read some of my stuff (swedish, my true language, not he bullshit I post here and I didn't shove it in his face begging for him to read it. Long story), he liked it and said I should write a script. Not for the Hollywood glamour and ambition. For no other reason than it being a different way of writing. That it will add to any skill I might have.
He gave me this book, Blake Snyder-Save the cat. It's less than 200 pages and I recommend it to anyone interested. Have it as PDF.
Anyway, at first I thought.... nah. Then, I couldn't let it go. An idea popped up and the story started to evolve in my head.
So, what if we make it a brainstorming session here? What if I give you the background, pitch the idea, you tell me if there truly is a story worth telling and we go from there?
Anyone?
