Scream at the Devil: Help Make a Movie!

I love movies; I don’t see enough of them lately. My undergraduate degree was in movies, and if you check out the movie Future Kill, you’ll actually see me. I was a production assistant, but I was an extra in one scene.  Here I am, in all my street-bum glory. So my love of cinema […]

Movie Mania

I’m over at the Whine Sisters today chatting on about the movies I saw this weekend. Come on by and share the last movie you saw, or what you want to see!

Shout out for the weekend!

It’s Friday, I’m almost caught up with catching up, the girls have been rocking at their school work, and so we’re starting the weekend early! So what’s on today’s agenda? First up, we’re going to do some tweaking to the script for a super-short, ultra low-budget movie (as in, if we break $50 I’ll be […]

Whining about my sordid past…

I’m blogging about my sordid past over at the Whine Sisters today! I’ve been doing a lot of rearranging in my garage these days, and in the process, I came across the picture to the left. That’s me back during my freshman year in college. Lest you jump to the same conclusion as my poor, […]

Latchkey's Lament – fab short film!

I seem to be on a video kick lately! My own book trailers and shorts I’ve found around the internet. And since I do love the movies–I think that Film Fridays could be a fun features. Movie reviews, screenplay chatter, Hollywood gossip. Whatevah. Today, it’s another short film that I just loved. Very steampunk, and […]

Just a little demonic tease….

Cross your fingers if you’re a fan of Kate and her demon-huntin’ ways (for that matter, cross your fingers even if you aren’t; I mean, I’m not proud).  Got some really cool news re the Carpe Demon movie.  I can’t say anything more now–and as I’ve said before, I won’t say it’s done until I’m […]

Adaptations

My husband and I have been hosting an Adaptations book club for a couple of years now. I’m going to try to keep a running list of the books on a page in this blog, and post info re the books we’re reading (and then watching). Tomorrow’s book is Enemies: A Love Story and I’m […]

Kari, we blew it!

Back in the halcyon days of high school, when life was perfect and there was no stress and happy thoughts ran like wild bunnies through the tall grass… Oh, wait. Okay, back in high school, my best friend Kari and I had an imaginary companion. This is not as strange as it sounds, and I […]

Indiana Jones and the status quo

I’ve been listening to some tapes on story craft, and something in one of them recently struck me. In a nutshell, the instructor was talking about the first act, and how in the set-up, we see the hero in their ordinary life–the status quo. Then, per the Hero’s Journey, Joseph Campbell, Vogler, and basic story […]
