After the End

Law school is expensive, takes an incredible amount of effort, and it would be such a shame it you were to be disbarred. And then your character is. Whoops. So instead of throwing all that time and money away, what else could your character do? @scriptlawyer has a few ideas for you.

Flower Here, Flower There, Flower Not Supposed to be There

So you’re going along, writing your story, and your character stops to smell the roses. But then you remember, your character is at the top of a snowy mountain in the middle of winter. Why the heck are there any flowers up here? Well, with a little bit of magic, maybe there could be some? What do you think @scriptflorist ?

New Family

We have two new family blogs this week. Everyone please welcome

Which script blog can I get information from about how a character should identify based on their nationality? The internet hasn't been helping me and I was wondering if there were any experts on the topic or if you could point me to any other blogs that could help?

Your question is a little vague. What do you mean by “identify”? Are you referring to what they call themselves like “I’m American/German/British”?

Depending on what nationality your character is, @scriptbrit @scriptaussie @scriptgerman or @scriptcanuck might be able to help you.

@writingwithcolor may also be able to help you as they have many mods of many nationalities.

If you need, feel free to resubmit with a bit of clarification
