My inspirations are primarily cinematic, which has to have an effect on my dialogue, so I think it was always going to work out that way. Things still need tweaking of course, but it's pretty much there as a first draft. I did turn episode one into a script, and it works really well.

Do you think you would have amended the dialogue much to convert MaM into a script? Because although something can sound great & clever in a book, if you give it to someone to say in real life it doesn't always work.
