I know, jumping ahead a bit with a title like that. But here's what I was thinking about on my drive this morning. What if Iggy has composed a final post for the site? Maybe it's a word doc saved on his desktop, and one or all of us see it when we're in the home. And maybe it's to just one of us. And maybe it's addressed to the entire community. Or maybe it's broken down into separate messages. And maybe we sit together at the end and read it. And maybe its title is The Final Post, or something of the like, and we could toy with it for the title of the film. The double entendre thing.
I'm also thinking of my two scenes. The first will be my character, a thirty-something woman, posting happily (in Michigan). But there will be a subtle conflict with her husband in the scene. The second scene will be a really big fight. Over deeper issues, but her relationships with the community members will get dragged into it. And, if everyone's comfortable with it going someplace a little darker, I think it's going to be a really ugly fight.
I'm also really into the idea of her traveling to the funeral with someone. Maybe PeterLake or CoyoteMike since their (characters) are from this neck of the woods.
Guys, let me know if you want to work that out.
200 pages of editing right now. Sorry I've been remiss. I put an 'about' link in the upper right hand of the page that links to Willie's awesome tell-all post.
Gotta run.

200 pages? I hope you're not talking about this project!
ReplyDeleteI do like this idea. I haven't decided how my guy is going to get down there. Wanna go in a classic T-bird?
Coyotemike,
ReplyDeleteIf you're drivin', I'm in. Sweet.
The 200 pages is something I'm editing for the day job. Bummer.
