Side thing but did you read the other Timelines scripts while you were working on yours? I'm assuming the other writers had to tell you how they're using the Metool.
Oh but if you're under a non disclosure agreement thing, I withdraw the question.
Nope!
Well, not exactly. I saw their pitches or summaries or something. So I had some idea of what they were doing, but to this day, I don't know the full stories -- still waiting to get mine. XD (Hopefully they're waiting to send them all together, and since mine is last...)
I'll say this, though: What they were doing really didn't influence my story in any meaningful way. But I think I knew what I wanted to do even before I saw theirs. I think I asked about them after to see if there was anything to tie them together in such a way, but in the end, not really.
