I write Horror, Scifi, Drama... whatever genre or story compels me. If you need the threat of hell to be a good person, then you're just a bad person on a leash.

That would be the SMART thing for me to do... so of course...

Just bought a new laptop using Costco bucks! Only had to shell out an extra $80 to cover the difference

Now in the midst of loading apps, log in password hell, etc

Then it's on to transferring files

What a nice bright display. And a battery that'll last more than 45 minutes will be a novel treat!

List something that you never in a million years thought could happen (that isn't related to politics).

I'll start:

I never thought in a million years that James Spader would eventually resemble William Shatner.

I mean LOOK at this guy in his prime!

NOW you're noticing it?

That was my thought too, but at the time, I was quite Windows savvy... and I also took my system to our IT group, who knew EVERYTHING about that kind of issue.

No go. It was Final Draft.

When I had it, I got emails telling me I could update with the latest bug fixes for X dollars.

If that's changed, cool.

Either way, FinalDraft has always been buggy, support lags and they don't really try to find the problem (just re-install it). I had a menu issue for 2 years - tiny font. No help

FadeIn = Buy once, no charge for updates or newer version releases (see image below)

FinalDraft = Buy the package... when bug fix updates come along, you pay. And when a new version is released and you want it, you pay (historically)

One time purchase isn't exactly correct.

You pay for updates and buy fixes

You pay for version upgrades

Thanks. It's two slides for the synopsis, not two versions.

If it's old school, what is the new school?

Inquiring minds want to know

Did you bonk your head?

If so, don't minimize it. Go to the walk in (irony) and get looked at.

Good luck and hope you're fine.

Also, socks and stairs do not mix, now more than ever. Beware.

Thanks for your continued thoughts and suggestions. So nice!

So the fonts have to be available in Powerpoint, as that's how I place text on images.

Also, I'm trying to match the font with the tone.

No idea if I'm accomplishing that, but I think the font is chosen.

:-)

Thanks, Laurie!

Powerpoint makes that easy... here I go!

Hey #Scriptsky folk!

Trying to put together a synopsis of my crime drama, THE BODY FARM

Yup, I'm making a pitch deck.

ANYWAY... here it is in two slides, cuz I hate small fonts and I think most everyone else does, too.

I am open to suggestions
