34. Reading Time

I wonder where those scripts are today. Maybe they were shredded, maybe both actors kept theirs, or maybe some lucky fan has them framed on their wall. I would love the chance just to hold them and read them. I'm a screenwriter (with credits, but we won't get into that), and there's something special about holding and reading a script. It's different than reading it off of an ipad. When you hold it in your hands, it feels like a piece of art. Maybe that doesn't make sense to you non-writers, but it's how us writers feel. That's why I print out every article I write for this website.

Not many people know that Carrie Fisher was a noted script doctor and screenwriter. A script doctor is someone they hire to make screenplays better. She even helped write some scenes in The Last Jedi. The lady knew her stuff.
