Checking In
Mar. 16th, 2012 11:24 pm I feel like I haven't posted for ages. Job situation still iffy - I think I'll feel a little more secure once we have a little more to do - it's been dead there lately.
I'm going to actually participate in ScriptFrenzy this year - it's the NaNo of screenwriting, taking place in April.
I have signed up for the Justified "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive" fic exchange. It seems pretty loose at the moment, but I'm a little nervous that there won't be a huge market for the secondary characters.
I'm wanting to write a Justified story about Dewey Crow - mostly a snapshot of different moments in his life. And one about Quarles because he fascinates me, but right now it's kicking my ass.
Loving the hockey in St. Louis right now. I'm getting playoff tickets for the first time in ages, so hopefully it'll last a few games this year. Not going to think about my beloved Blackhawks right now - I'm hoping they'll make it, but with Toews out, I'm not sure where they'll wind up.
Got an invite to my 25th high school reunion today. I have about three months to do something really scandalous.

Do you have a script in mind for the Script Frenzy already? What type of script are you doing(if you don't mind my asking)?
I joined this meetup group for screenwriting 'from the heart",but it wasn't organized that well. Ever since I did an outline of characters and plot for the imaginary sci-fi movie for my team at Femslash Land(and saw a trailer one of the team made for the plot)I got this renewed interest in trying to write a screenplay.
I'll try and think of something suitably scandalous for you to do in the next three months so you can talk about it at your reunion! :)

It's either part 3 in a trilogy or part 5 in a series (depending on whether or not you count the 2 films/stories that are still in my head.) And it's a Christmas movie, so it's going to deal with the standard cliches (unwed mother giving birth, cynical man finding the Christmas spirit), but I need more, so if you have some favorite Christmas movie cliches (there aren't any kids in this), let me know. If you decide to join Script Frenzy, I'm over there as cmk418 (surprise!)
I appreciate you looking out for me and I await your scandalous ideas!
