Act One

Int.   She-shed   -Night
Candles are lit, the laptop is on, Final Draft is visible, MANDI sits with a glass of wine and starts typing. Mandi is a new writing student at Falmouth completing her MA Writing for script and screen.  Finally, the kids are to bed and she can relax and make a start.
MANDI

So as I embark on the next step of my journey

I have to write a blog, hmm this could be fun

a public display and test of my writing and imagination

feedback from the unknown, and the unknowing

angle to the keyboard:

Mandi  (v.o.)

imagination starts with the blogs christening,

a name (tapping impatiently on desk) needs to

be witty, clever not too much though

MANDI starts typing

writeablog.

MANDI deletes the entry

arcrival@wordpress

MANDI writes numerous attempts at blog name

got it!

MANDI quickly types her thoughts into space

shesaidinhersheshed

love a tongue twister, hope it’s not the wine talking

and it is as good in the morning

Angle to MANDI drinking wine, content.
