Excellent work! For future books, I sugegst that you left-justify the text (ragged right) so that the words won’t be broken incorrectly, and large spaces won’t appear between them. This will also be more realistic for the Holmes stories because Watson wrote them by hand.

It depends. Are you winritg a play/screenplay? The main thing you should pay attention to is structure. Speaking from a winritg and production perspective A Full-Length Play:-Usually lasts 2 hours (around a minute a page, give or take)-Has arcs leading to the act break/end of the play-relies upon live actor performances more than anything-limits its locationA Film:- lasts 90 minutes to 2 1/2 hours (comedys tend to be shorter)-Has arcs leading through scene changes-relies upon director’s shots and editing to tell story-generally has many locationsThere are exceptions to all these rules, of course. But generally, if I read something that has a bunch of quick scenes or more than two locations, that tends to be more feasable as a film since logistically moving that much is not usually possible on stage as well as confusing to the playgoing audience. If I read a single location script with a few characters it will be a capable play since most movies lose steam if the shots last too long.I hope that makes sense.

I’m interested in sumibtting (and yes, I acknowlege you’re no doubt getting deluged from CL).Question is, what sort of script are you looking for? I have several shorts with varying degrees of complexity. I’m also looking to build my team for my own production company (seven scripts in active rewrite, twenty more in development).Aside from this short, I would like more general info on how I can use your services/work with your team.siincerely,Robin
