If you like, give me some details in a private message or email. I'd be happy to read what you've got and comment.

I need some help on aiming the direction of my zombie script. I want something fresh, but I need help executing it.

It's never a good idea to "stretch" a story because it does not serve the story to add "filler" just to take up pages. A Hollywood pro will see through that immediately.

Perhaps there's more to the story that you haven't discovered? If you'd like to share it, either publicly or with me privately, I'd be happy to comment on it and see if there's not more to the story.

Hello ScriptNurse,

I have been pondering this Film inside my head for a few years now,  and I have the general out-line of the story in my mind,  and the problem is,  as with most of my screenplays,  It's not long enough...  I've fed them all the important elements of the story into the story,  but has a hard time being a roughly 90minute Film?  Any suggestions on how I might stretch the play without losing the story?  Are there Screenwriter hints,  tips and secrets I am currently unaware - would be helpful!!  Thank you very much for your time..   Cool   Cheesy   Undecided
