I can't imagine doing 65 pages in 3-4 days.
I just cracked 72 and it took me 5-6 weeks.
The key for me was outlining nearly every scene beforehand, deadlines and having almost nothing to do on a Labor Day weekend

I outlined my third act. I still need to do 3-4 scenes for act 2. This shyt gonna end up being 80 pages before I start act 3. Gonna end up with probably 110 pages when it’s done. It was supposed to be a 90 minute type movie

Looks like I’m gonna meet my own deadline and finish on Friday. It’ll most likely be close to 120 pages.
I’m kind of proud of myself. This has been my most productive year of writing since I started to do it officially in 2015. Managed to crack out 2 screenplays, a 2nd draft, a pilot, and a working exercise show script. Year ain’t even done and I even stopped writing for 3 months.
