Writing a new Script

After having killed a t.v. pilot whose plot would have haunted me if any station had picked it up, and brought it to life fully, I've started work on a script that's been a twinkle in my eye since 2000.  Am using my screenwriter tools (from a class I took) on it, which is helping the amorphous tale take a more stable shape.

There's a Ghost!  Three productions of that Scottish Play.  And a pair of mixed up lovers, one of whom gets time snatched by an old enemy and ricochetted into his future life where he meets the future incarnation of his love "back home".  I described the whole thing to my daughter (also a writer) - and she said, "Uh, Mom ... that's awful complex!"

I said "Yeah  .... but imagine it like a wonderous antique pocket watch, you know, one made of gold with jewels inside, that opens so you can see its inner workings ... if I can just get the workings right ... just how wonderful it would be!"

She basically implied, as much as you can in a nonverbal way over the phone ... "Then, get to work!"

So, I am.
