Victory, Dagnammit.

I've been trying to write a script. It's about politics and secrets, and may end up being a bit like a thriller, but also probably not. (All praise me, King of Synopses.) When I was hammering out the concept initially, I deliberately chose a quirky format. I figured that having constraints would require me to be more imaginative when I came to writing.

Having set these rules, I then found that I had very few available ways to give the script an interesting cold open. And I wanted it to have an interesting cold open. This has basically been vexing me for a month, with the feeling that the whole script is up in the air until I come up with a good idea.

And I think I just solved it.

I shall now engage smug mode. Do excuse me.
