Introduction post

I saw the suggestion for this in [livejournal.com profile] altariel1's journal and thought 5000 words, how hard can it be? Except that I have a ficathon deadline at the start of December and there's another one looking like it might be starting sign-ups soon (although no idea of timings). But who needs a social life in November?

Nano might be all about writing a novel but sod it, I have a radio script I've written about two pages of and 5000 words may (or may not) be a good sort of length for it. I have a working title that I refer to it by but since it gives away the ending I'm not telling anyone what that title is yet.

So my plan is to finish it, as well as writing my ficathon pieces, and not getting distracted by any other writing :)

Oh, go for it! Have you see the radio writing tips (http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/insight/radiowriter_tips.shtml) on the BBC website? There are some radio drama guidelines (http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/writing/radiodrama.shtml) too, as well as radio script formats (http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scriptsmart/formats.shtml). Good set of resources.
