Currently rewriting my feature script Christmasville. Last year I queried at least a hundred producers that were associated in some way with Hallmark Christmas movies. And while it got a few reads, I quickly realized that even though this was a family Christmas script that ticked a lot of boxes, it never ticked the most important one for Hallmark -- female lead. And romance! Oh well. So, as the polish continues, I've decided to tweak it again and set the Page screenwriting competition as my latest goal.
I feel the real work needs to be done in Act 2. Sure, there's fun and games and mysteries are revealed, but there is still something missing. However, I'm having a hard time narrowing that one thing down. Perhaps it'll just come to me from out of thin air? That would be nice. Stuff like that does happen every so often. And I've immersed myself in it, hoping to keep my writing chops strong, yet finding myself making mostly dialogue changes but not much in the way of story. Hey, readability is still a major key. So, if you feel inclined, Christmasville is posted here and available for you to read and enjoy. Would love to hear your feedback as well!
