Hey Brian! Have you been able to work through module 4 yet? I think our outlines have to go through the whole module before exchanging feedback, to get the most out of this assignment. If you have a 5-10 page outline ready to go, then happy to look it over!

I want to be known as a great writer, one who is able to create a moving, compelling story that touches on the various ills, as well as the triumphs and tragedies that are indicative of the human condition.
Title: Bennett and the Impundulu
Concept: A homicide detective gets caught up in a thirty year feud between his mysterious chess playing friend and the devastating menace of the Impundulu.
Genre: Action Thriller
Example for Action:
Purpose: Adrenaline- Stirring/Fast Paced
Demand for Action:
Mission: To find out about the city’s apparent problem with missing children all the while a powerful vampire has come to town.
Escalating Action: Slowly but surely Bennett begins to understand these strange happenings are a little bit out of his league, and oddly enough his best friend Silas is somehow connected.
Hero: James Bennett is a no nonsense veteran homicide detective who’s very good at his job but it no longer gives him purpose. Well he’s about to run into something that will change all of that.
Antagonist: Elimane is a tortured soul, literally. He’s a cursed vampire known as the Impundulu. He was enslaved by a witch and was unable to deal with his longtime foe Silas until his indebtedness was fulfilled. Now that it is he’s come to Silas’ hometown for a little payback.
Act 1: A cheating pastor getting done with doing the do, quickly goes to a meeting at the Assembly of the Undead where Elimane decapitates Sigmund
The inciting incident When Silas destroys Eli’s lair that also houses all his eggs.
Turning Point can possibly be when the witch gives Silas her secret lover the weapon she created to keep the Impundulu in check.
Act 2: New Plan: Bennett is now on board that these happenings are no where near normal and begins to brace Silas for intel also we find out that Bennett’s dope smoking partner is actually a Lycan.
Act 3: Rethink Everything:
New Plan:
Silas lets Bennett know that he knows his secret
Turning Point: Huge Failure Elimane kills Silas.
Act 4: Watson comes to the funeral and properly shows Bennett how to wield the Leopard’s Claw effectively Cassie and grandson are found,
Bennett and Rick have a showdown with Elimane and his crew in the abandoned warehouse
the catacombs

All,
I would like to partner with someone for feedback round 1. I have been keeping up with the lessons but have not posted the last few.
Let me know if you’re interested.

Title: Reset

Synopsis: A researcher working on a theory that AI can have neuroses, stumbles upon a rogue AI’s plot to destroy humanity. She races to discover a way to thwart it before the AI can delete her.
“Humanity needs to be reset. We’re going to turn it off, and turn it back on again.”

Hi Paul!
Would you be willing to exchange feedback with me? I’d love your take on my outline since we’re both writing Sci-Fi scripts. If so, I can message you my contact info- but no worries if you’ve partnered with someone else already.
Thanks!

Hi Alyssa! Awesome. Let’s do it. Now I just have to figure out how to message you!
Paul

Great! I sent you a message on the Timeline, accessed via our profiles, as I wasn’t sure where else to message haha. Just let me know if you can’t view it!

Hey H – I am looking to exchange feedback if you want. Just let me know.
-
Hi Vince, I’d be happy to exchange feedback with you. Yours is a drama/thriller and mind is drama/suspense, so we’re thinking along the same lines. My email is lenorebechtel33@gmail.com. If you’re interested, send me your Module 4, Lesson 10 outline, and I’ll send you mine.
-
Hi Lenore,
I would like to exchange feedback with you. I will need to receive my outline back from Brian first and once I revise, I will let you know so we can exchange as well.

I will have my outline completed tomorrow and am looking for someone who doesn’t mind reading a faith-based story (St. Patrick vs the Otherworld). Thanks in advance. Margaret
-
Hi Margaret! I’d be happy to exchange feedback with you tomorrow if you’re interested! I have a few faith-based (or faith-inspired) scripts I’m working on as well. FYI the one I’m currently writing for WIM is not anti-church or anti-God, it’s more anti-cult, if you were concerned about the content. But totally up to you, just let me know.
