New Play, Need Filmmaker to Complete It

Hey y’all – the latest play in my series of 10 10 Minute plays is done, at least in first draft form. That makes four. But for this one I need to create some film footage as an integral part of the play. Preferably super-8 mm transferred to digital and then manipulated on a computer. You’ll see what I mean when you read the play. If you or someone you know might be interested in working on this project with me, please drop me an email. I would love to submit this play to some theaters (after a rewrite or two) and think it would work much better if the film footage could accompany the script.

Comments and thoughts, as always, are welcomed.

Happy New Year

I’m stealing this straight off of Neil Gaiman’s journal because . . . well, because it’s a damn good sentiment and reminder to myself as well as the people I care about–which includes each and every visiter to this site. So, from one of my favorite writers to all of you:

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art — write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

Happy New Year.

I think because they are a liminal space, and they contain the potential for a kind of casual intimacy, or, as Sondheim …

Jeopardy Sells Out?

Is it just me or is Jeopardy become a haven for product placement these days? They had an entire category based on some film I’d never heard of . . . The Bucket List. Then, the answer to the final clue was “Pringles.” The other day there was some category that raised the same question in my mind. Anyone else notice this trend?

Review: Canon Pixma MX700

It’s been a long time since I’ve invested any but the most minimal amount of money in a printer. And, as a result, I have spent the past several years dealing with my printers instead of simply using them. The other night, I got fed up with the HP PSC 1510 All-In-One that I had …
