If you type 20 pages a day, everyday, youll have roughly 560 pages every month, assuming you count 28 days (4 weeks) as a month as opposed to 30-31 days. Now, when you consider editing and rewriting, which is much easier to do when you actually have something written, that means you could easily write a novel a month, every month. How good they would be depends greatly on your talent as a writer, but still a book a month. As scripts tend to be a bit shorter and less detailed than the average novel, you could probably write at least 2, maybe 3 a month. Again, quality would greatly be based on your own abilities, but lets just say youre moderate to great at it for arguments sake. That means in one years time, youd have written at least 30 scripts. Sound too easy? Probably is. The point is, if you put in the time and the effort, you COULD do it, even if you only wrote just one script in a year. Or even a novel. So, for all you frustrated writers out there, let me say this: Just write. Those first 20 pages may be a crap, but the next 20 might be great. As for me, Ive got about 50-60 scripts Im juggling right now, as well as 2 novels. At 20 pages a day, I should have a complete collection in roughly 2-3 years. THATS when the fun starts.
Take care everyone.

Hey what do ya mean by "group of its day"??? *lol* I thought Pig was still going strong, though he has been focusing on working with Kmfdm rather than his solo project as of late. But he did just release a new album a couple months ago, under the title "Watts - Pigmartyr". I loved it, though I admit I'll buy pretty much any album when Pig is involved.
