Today is the first official day of Script Frenzy, and I have written 992 words. Yay! Unfortunately, I'm already sensing a potential plot hole the size of Kentucky. Hmmm... That's okay. My strategy has always been to write first, worry later. Toying with titles: Confessions of a Former Orphan; Tales of a Part-Time Orphan; Teenage Gothic.
Happily, I have resolved one thorny problem: how to get my characters from present-day to flashback without insane and impractical set changes. David, the memoir-writer, will direct the other orphans as they act out scenes from "home." That way, the entire play can take place in the orphanage, with a split-stage design to signify boys'/girls' dormitory, dining hall, attic, etc. That could work.
