FADE IN

EXT. MONTAGE OF MIDDLETON - MORNING

We open on a montage of people getting ready for the day in up state New York 1982. BRAZIL by Geoff Muldar plays. Titles/credits overlay on top of the montage.

BEGIN MONTAGE
-Person making coffee in small-town cafe
-Butcher turning on “Open” sign
-Bakery setting out fresh donuts 
-Persons getting in their car 

EXT. CULLEN FUNERAL HOME - MORNING

Establishing shot. Ranch style, single story home with a converted garage that doubles as a morgue. Wooden sign in the front of the lawn that reads Cullen’s Funeral Home. 

INT. BEDROOM - MORNING

MARIE CULLEN (early 20’s woman) and ALICE LIGHTFOOT (early 20’s Comanche) are asleep in bed together. The alarm sounds BEEP BEEP BEEP. Marie lazily flails an arm to turn off the alarm. Marie rolls over and wraps her arm around Alice. 

MARIE
Mmm I don’t want to get up.

ALICE
Then don’t...

MARIE
Ugh that sounds nice

Alice rolls over to face Marie.

ALICE
I could make it worth your while to stay in bed.

Alice kisses Marie on her neck.

MARIE
We can’t...we have to go work so we can have luxuries like food and a roof.

First page of my WIP, The Bright Side of Death.

Everyone around Marie starts dying, but it’s not her fault.

It’s Fargo meets Final Destination

Sharing page 1 of an Abbott Elementary spec I wrote last year for the Nickelodeon Fellowship.

“A skunk gets into the school and sprays someone, forcing teachers to re-evaluate the school’s safety plan and practice a lockdown drill.”

I'm late for #firstpagefridays / #1stpagefridays. Or possibly 3 days early.

Houses of Wolves: Lycosura - A menopausal single mom gets bitten by a vampire and is suddenly stuck balancing parent-teacher meetings with an ageless war between vampires and werewolves.

Drama/dramedy.

#FirstPageFridays is something that's come over from the old place - and I think it's definitely one to keep.

It was great seeing so many pages last Friday.

For one of my first #FirstPageFridays #1stPageFridays, I've been revisiting the first pilot I wrote.

N.E.S.S. (Nightmare Extaction and Storage Solutions) is a 60 minute dark sci-fi comedy. Well, kinda horror. Really horror. Who knows what it is?! #scriptsky

That feed picks up anything with the #scriptsky hash - plus it also picks up anything with a bunch of keywords often used by screenwriters. @kbd.ink kindly set it up.

There's also a WGA/SAG Strike feed, and there are some hashtags being used for #SpecScriptShoutOut #FirstPageFridays etc.
