Talentville Coverage for The Art of Dying Daily

The Art of Dying Daily is a script that, despite its qualities, has limited potential in the commercial realm thanks to its subject matter and characterization. The script could play well as an indie drama, but would need to embrace a more positive and life-affirming conclusion to find audiences. Because the narrative lacks direction or escalating stakes, the story feels flat and lacks the drama it should possess. To improve the script and realize its potential as an exploration of addiction and personal struggle, more emphasis should be placed on the efforts the characters make to escape their situation, and the characters themselves should be carefully rethought to provide each with likable qualities that will make readers want to see them succeed.
