Good work, Vod. It is important to keep yourself motivated.
I don't count words on screenplays, but we shoot for 10 pages a day when we're working, and finish a first draft in about 10-15 days. But we also take quite a bit of downtime in between gigs to rest up ad come up with new ideas.
I did a full-script dialog polish with a few changes today...it took about 6 1/2 hours. Probably 20-30 full pages of writing all-told on a 103 page script.
Did 5 pages of rewrites/added scenes on another script yesterday in about 45 minutes.
When I write short stories I finish them in one shot and they tend to be 1500-3000 words a piece.
But that's my job.
On a related note... GIALLO started shooting today, L.A. GOTHIC is coming together, we have a cool, young horror director attached to the script I rewrote today (more on that as things progress) and our latest script (non-horror) called THE TOKAREV is getting quite a bit of attention:D
