24 Loglines for 24 shorts

Hello,

My current short script is due this Thursday. A dark fantasy script. I will also hopefully find out if I got the content writer job I am really hoping to get. I should also find out how my zombie short does in the Filmmatic Horror contest. I already got an email saying it is in the quarter finals of the Killer Shorts contest.

So it'll be a busy week, I hopefully will get some or all good news.

Today, my blog is just an update on the current scripts I have completed so far in the 55 Genres challenge. 24 scripts are written. 24 loglines have been added to each. Insert here the standard "writers hate loglines" line. I do too. I rather not overthink them.
