Screenwriting : What I just realized? by Susan Mcgregor/ Aka Susan Ruggiero

What I just realized?

I just realized something. I hate when I come up with a brand new scenes for the script and I already wrote it already. I should've done this scene. I guess it's better late than never

Stephen Floyd

Like, in the context of already wrote it in another piece, or in the same work?

Hey Susan - until you sell the script; it's your property to modify, change, rewrite or do whatever you want to do with/to it. We call it rewriting..

Imo Wimana Chadband

I don't think that's an abnormal thing for a writer Susan. As Doug said, feel free to modify and rewrite until you believe it represents the body of work you envision :)

Frankie Gaddo

If the scene can work well in the script then put it in. If no, rework it and put it in your next script. Otherwise, kill your darlings, let the scene go and move on.
