writing...

WOW, it has been a long time since I have written anything on here.

I feel slightly ashamed of myself that I haven't kept up with this blog.  Anyway...

I have news for all the readers.  I actually found a job.  At writing!

I am currently a screenwriter for an up and coming production company called CFJ entertainment.  Yesterday, I dropped off the first script, a bio-pic about Buster Keaton.  It took about a month for me to write the whole thing, and I thought I would get it done sooner.  I do have a bit of an ego I guess.

I learned many things while writing it.  The firs one is I prefer fiction.  I mean REALLY prefer to write prose fiction.  Yet, that doesn't mean I will stop doing this job.  It is at least a way to get some of more media friendly ideas on paper--one thing I will be able to do is to put some of my own ideas into at least treatment format and attempt to get the production company to take a look at them.

Anyway, I have to go and attempt to get some sleep.  I will try to come back here and talk about the screenwriting process and writing in general more.  One thing I did, right after I was done with the bio-pic, was print out the first 50 pages of my sci-fi noir and I am going to go through it again.  Who knows, it might get some good editing with my new set of eyes.
