Pick a previous challenge and do it again.
I picked #5 – the provided first line challenge.
UP IN SMOKE
Excerpt:
SAUL (gesturing at the item):
Is that it?
GERTL:
What, this? It’s just a lipstick, see?
GERTL makes a show of opening the tube of lipstick and applying some to her lips, using the compact mirror for guidance.
GERTL:
Do you like the color?
SAUL:
It’s a little dark for a girl like you.
GERTL (laughing):
Right, because I’m still twelve to you.
SAUL:
No! Not twelve. Sixteen, maybe.
GERTL:
Got a thing for jailbait, Saul? I never would’ve thought…
SAUL (embarrassed):
Easy, sweet-knees, I’m just playing with ya. (beat) Shall we get to business?
SAUL pulls a cigar out of his pocket, and reaches for paraphernalia waiting on the table. He clips it, lights it, and takes a puff.
