A conversation with his younger backdoor neighbour forces a college student to reconsider his doubts.
>>Reconsider his doubts A logline (as well as a plot) is not about what a character "reconsiders", "thinks", or "dreams" of doing. It's about what he actually DOES. What is the college student's objective goal? What does he want to DO? Who/what opposes him? What's at stake?
>>Reconsider his doubts
A logline (as well as a plot) is not about what a character “reconsiders”, “thinks”, or “dreams” of doing. It’s about what he actually DOES.
What is the college student’s objective goal? What does he want to DO?
Who/what opposes him?
What’s at stake?

>>When obsession turns to murder
Whose obsession? The writer’s, I’m assuming, but It’s not clear to me.
>>writer Joe Pittman
The character’s name is not usually part of a logline. What is usually a part of a logline is an adjective (or 2) about a character flaw that creates doubt (hence, suspense) as to whether the character can overcome the adversity, reach his objective goal.
>>turning his dreams into a nightmare
What does that mean? Nightmare or nightmares? Literally? If it means what I think it means then aren’t his dreams nightmares to begin with? This totally confuses me.
>>his secret is revealed
What’s at stake? That is, so what if his secret gets out? What difference will it make? What’s the jeopardy? Who will suffer as a result?
I sum, I just can’t get a handle on what the story is about.
