Going to read a few books

As I wade through the current visual effects workload I have, I thought I’d start reading some books on screenwriting that I have taken note of with my limited free time. Since I’ll eventually get to the rewrite (hopefully before the Nicholls in May), I thought I’d take in “Writing for Emotional Impact” by Karl Iglesias.

I’m just a little ways into it, and it’s been enlightening. I am learning new tidbits of info, as well as getting affirmation that my first draft is on the right path. Good to know. I’d like to get through this book before I jump into my rewrite if I can.

I wish I read faster. My wife reads at a blisteringly fast pace. I wish I had that skill.
