Words I Wrote Today: 2,357
Goal: 125,000
Deadline: December 31, 2020
Words Left To Write: 99,895
I am now under 100,000 words, that was my goal yesterday I wanted to get under 100,000 words.
I was watching Handmaid's Tale yesterday for 4 episodes of Season 2 when I should of been writing. I wrote my word count in the morning so I could binge watch a few episodes.
It is a good series, but as I watch the series, I notice that each Episode is Named and it is jus like an episode of any show. A beginning, A middle and An End. That is how each scene of the book should be. Goal, Conflict, Resolution.
I am also an Outlander Fan and have all 5 Seasons of that series. If you want to see the Hero get into conflict after every turn. Watch this series. Again, Every Episode is a mini movie. A Beginning, Middle and End.
So when I binge watch these series, I watch for goal, conflict, resolution. Just like when I am watching a movie, I am watching for Plot Points. I can no longer watch a movie for enjoyment, because I pick the movie apart.
That is why when you attend writer's workshops, they talk about movies, and break down a movie, because it is just like a book, plot points and all.
So next time you watch a movie, look for the plot points, the midpoint, the dark moment. etc.
Now you have a reason to Binge watch your favorite series
