    SOUL JACKER. I'm sorry to tell you this, but there is not a chance in the world that I would just quit the story so far and write something with zombies in it.

    My screenplay hasn't totally fallen apart. All that has hapenned is that I don't know how to continue because I want to change some things that I've already written.

    Simply adding zombies wouldn't help.

    Justin m.--thanks for the advice.

    Any more suggestions

    OK. I've written about 15 pages of a script.

    It's kinda starting to deteriorate. However, I think I know how to solve the problem.(a couple of things near the start have to be changed.)

    What I want to know is: should I

    1)Don't change the errors and complete the script.Then, go back and change things.

    2)Start over again

    Thanks for any advice.

    Definitely get it all down then change it (it will probably change A LOT).

    15 pages is not a long way, and if you already feel the scripts has deteriorated the rest of it will feel the same way.

    Just start over again, make a better treatment, outline, structure before you write.

    If you'll continue, you'll feel the same after 20 pages, then 50, then 80, and you won't be able to finish it because it's just too far away.

    I've been there.

    Did you have a rough plan when you started writing? Thats probably why it isn't working at page 15. If you start with a clear map as to where to go it will allow you more room and time to stop and smell the roses... so to speak.

    In summarry: write it... then re-write it.

    If you know what you need to change at the start, then make a note of the changes then continue writing as if the changes have been made. Then when you're finished go back and actually make the changes to the start to fit with the rest. Don't start all over again, just keep writing, writing, writing.

    And don't, whatever you do, add any zombies.

    Try Werewolves.
