  Hi, my name is Jan.
  I’ve started countless scripts, but I’ve only finished a few.
  I want to learn how to write a draft from beginning to end efficiently. It usually takes me a year to complete a first draft (hence the countless unfinished scripts).
  Something unique, special, strange or unusual about me? I don’t know if this is special, but it is very “me.” I lived in China for three years while my husband worked on a project in Shanghai. I struggled to learn Mandarin. I eventually found out that I had been saying the word “nap,” thinking that I was saying “water.” It’s the same word but uses a different tone. So, for two years, I kept asking everyone for a nap. Which is pretty ironic, seeing that I’ve had Chronic Fatigue since I was 17.
  I’m really looking forward to this class and learning how to write a first draft in 30 days.
