When lonely long-haul truck driver D Forde falls in love online with a city writer and single mother, he must cross more than the Nullarbor to overcome his fear of abandonment and win her heart.
Jeez Tony! :-) I just read an article about having a big surprise at the end of Act 2 to propel the story into Act 3 ... and feel like I am reading the end of Act 2 here ... a big surprise that could spin my whole script into a new direction! lol The way you put it really could definitely work.

Jeez Tony! 🙂 I just read an article about having a big surprise at the end of Act 2 to propel the story into Act 3 … and feel like I am reading the end of Act 2 here … a big surprise that could spin my whole script into a new direction! lol The way you put it really could definitely work. On the other hand dpg, at an emotional level the truckie has so much more to lose, whereas the girl does not have much to lose at all though she is tied by responsibilities to children. Probably it should be dual protagonists but as this is my very first script I think I had better stick to one and to the one I have been building. I need to have a finished first draft for my course by mid-March!!!! Which is probably a good thing! Once I have that perhaps I can play with the dual protagonist or maybe even changing the protagonist …..

Oh Yes! Of course, truck HAS TO break down/or he has to come across someone that has broken down! Had it in a very very early draft but not this one (go figure!). Would love to add more description in the logline but isn't 30 words MAX!? Daughter/s (how many still to be decided) will definitely stayRead more

Would love to add more description in the logline but isn’t 30 words MAX!? Daughter/s (how many still to be decided) will definitely stay with the single mum (of course :-)). I feel the real missing link is a clever, fresh, new ticking clock …. btw: dpg: do you know D Forde by any chance. As it happens, he is one of the few truckies who doesn’t think he is too precious to do repairs on his own truck lol 🙂

I love you guys!!! :-) dpg .... an opposite to D Forde could be as corny as the 'overseas assignment' ... i think what I am really missing here is an interesting, uncontrived [is that a word?] ticking clock.

Richiev: The perspective (POV?) has to be the truckie because this is also about the trucking industry and all those guys (and some girls) who keep the wheels of Australia (the US and even the UK) turning. But ….. hmmmm the love interest … what’s her deal!!!
Thanks guys from my heart from all your inspiration 🙂
