I had a dream about Larry David last night. He was in a playwrighting class with me during a previous semester and this semester he was teaching a screenwriting class I was in. I was giving a presentation and he started marking me down like 20 times for one incident. I called him outside and said "I know who you are, I've seen your show (lots of people hadn't in my dream) and I started arguing with him like he could only mark me down once per incident. Arguing sense- just like his show. We were arguing and it was working. He seemed to like being stood up to. Then back inside he was teaching me that there are 4 stages in writing. And we omit stage 3 initially because we can't remember the details and lose track of everything when beginning a story. Stage one was like an outline and people's names, very superficial. Stage 2 was ideas, stage 3 was more details, and we never got to stage 4. Anyway, I was making all this crap up in my brain while dreaming, like I was teaching myself to write - stuff i'd never heard before- coming in the guise of Larry David's tutelage.
