I always seem to start these threads on Nanowrimo too. LOL

I don't have a laptop and I share a computer. So if I want to be able to write freely - I have to use paper and pen/pencil.

Though it means having to type it up later, I actually like the freedom it gives me. I can be anywhere and work on my script. At work, in my car pool, at the swimming pool, ect. Anyone else with me?

Actually, for Screnzy you won't have to type it up later. You can just scan your pages into a PDF document. Though if you feel bad knowing that 100 handwritten pages != 100 script pages, I'd suggest you write a little bit more.

Oh, but yeah, I'm using computers and Celtx to write, though I'd much rather be using my SM4.

There's this thinggy for writing screenplays long hand:

great link, I write on paper too and then need to type it up, find it more creative that way.

That's true. I didn't think about scanning the pages. Though I plan to write over. I seem to be a page or so under my handwriting.

Ah! And thank-you for that link! That looks useful!

How would you make the pages into a PDF? I know you'd scan it, but what software would you use to make a PDF?

A lot of scanning software will automatically output to PDF. All the scanners at my office do!

Definately enjoy writing in a notebook. It came in handy while I was in Italy and had not laptop.

I agree with writing by hand. It was soo much easier to stay up late (and stay focus) with just a pen and paper.

But when I told my mom that my 110 script was hand written i swear her face whitened. I'm like ''no this is a good thing!! there are tons of other people doing it too!! Plus, I don't even have to worry about loosing it if i don't push that magical 'save' button!!''
