Goal for today met: Try something new
Managed to take a plunge and writeup a logline and a working synopsis for one of the many ideas I have roaming in my head. I haven't done any writing in forever.... I used to do it as a creative and mind cleanser but not really something I'd pursue
A successful career woman reflects back on her turbulent trials and tribulations of her past. Her family, friends, work acquaintances and other diversified people she encounters along the way fortify her downfalls and rises as she grabs hold of her mental health issues and a whole new identity. Securing the roadway to her success was a matter of life and death.
I just found this DELIGHTFUL video of David Tennant and Michael Sheen doing a sketch with Comic Relief for charity. Who knew Comic Relief was still a thing?! I remember when Billy, Whoopi, and Robin were the engine for that organization.

@Kate Dones was that the Stephen Fry film? I loved that! I haven't seen it in years. I think I have the dvd, I'll have to dig it out and rewatch.
Freyja Seren (she/her) yes Stephen Fry directed it.
Let's say you have a $300 Visa Gift Card. What would you spend it on? Stuff or services? What would be your top three things?
Three hundred dollars is not enough to do a full on splurge-crazed frenzy. I'd go with what Doug Nelson said. But I'll name my favorite: Laphroaig 10 year. The smell and taste of dirt is great :) ...okay, it's peat, but I call it dirt.
Ooo, @Richard I just learned of Laphroaig from watching Men in Kilts. I typically have Glenfiddich, but now I can't wait to try this one! Thanks for the reminder!
I'm working on a movie inspired by a true story (my husband's life since a train hit us) and I'd like comments on the new longline I came up with.

Title: The Brit Who Said It Could Have Been Worse
Logline: The true story of a free spirited, extreme sports lover who, after a near-death experience, must face his inner demons to heal his PTSD and free his mind to accomplish his life mission of helping others, without having to pay the price himself.
Thanks for your comments!

Expand commentSo, here's my latest version, trying to follow your amazing comments:
"After miraculously surviving an accidental train crash, an adventure sports maverick must accept he's not as well as he makes believe and face his inner demons to heal his complex PTSD, stay sane and become who he wants to be: an inspiring living example of what is possible when you go against all odds."
Is it still too vague and wordy? I wasn't too sure about "accidental" and "complex" PTSD. Rewriting it helped me have a clearer idea of the direction I want to take. Thanks to Chaun Lee , I will make sure PTSD & mental health is central, as it's part of the Acceptance theme I'm going for. Kate Dones I loved you maverick idea, brilliant! Hope you don't mind me using it! Beth Fox Heisinger Your shorter version of the title is a way better idea than my long one! And it will avoid Brits getting upset with a reference to them in the title ;) Eoin O'Sullivan Is it clearer now that he's the one getting in his own way and what is at stake if he doesn't change?
Definitely shaping up better; and no problem. It was a more straightforward precise way to combine all those words together. few grammar fixes, and few more rewording might do.

"After miraculously surviving an accidental train crash, an adventurous sports maverick must accept that he's not well. To heal his complex PTSD, stay sane and become the man he aspires to be; he must face his inner demons and reality itself; An inspiring living example of what is possible when you go against all odds." . . . . how about that
Kate Dones LOVE IT!!! Thank you sooo much!

I've been immersed in the arts and creative fields since I was young, and held various positions,as well had set experiences in the Industry both film/tv & live event also while pursuing freelance photography.

I desperately want Joe West from CW's The Flash to be my dad. LOL
I've recently seen Russel Crowe on Fathers and Daughters that was pretty harrowing.
Bit of a cliche, but Atticus Finch is still my favorite.
