Maybe I should explain my fixation with movies and television. I want to write screenplays. The ability of a person to compose flowing eloquent dialog between characters fascinates me. I believe that being a novelist and a screenwriter are two entirely different talents. I have no research on this topic but I would be very surprised to discover many novelists who successfully cross over to screenwriting and vice versa. I do not have the ability to create an engaging world using relying solely on description. However, I find myself acting out engaging conversations between several characters(sometimes I am one of them) in my head. When inspired I put these conversations on paper and attempt to form something resembling a story. My aspiration is not to become a professional. I just want to finish a screenplay.
