Progress

Doodles: So you went to film school?

Me: Yes, I did.

Doodles: And you studied acting?

Me: No. I studied filmmaking. To study acting you went to acting school.

Doodles: So what did you study?

Me: Directing. Screen writing. Editing. Animation.

Doodles: So how come you became a regular writer?

Me: When I got out of school I realized I liked regular writing–prose, it’s called–more than screenwriting.

D: Did you show your movies to the public?

Me: No. Just to my class.

D: How come not to the public?

Me: There was no way to do it.

D: YouTube.

Me: There was no YouTube when I was in school. There was no Internet.

D: What do you mean?

Me: I mean it hadn’t been invented yet. There was no Internet. No e-mail.

D: So how did you get in touch with people?

Me: I called them.

Pie: Or you could write them a letter!

Me: That’s right. I could write them a letter.

Doodles: But no Internet!

Me: Nope. None. No YouTube. No e-mail. No Club Penguin.

Doodles: Wow. Just wow.

Wait till he finds out we had only four channels and we had to watch shows when they were live on TV! Bring towels, though. I think his head might explode.

  • Who I Am

    I read, I write, I occasionally look to make sure my kids aren't playing with matches.

    My novel, MODERN GIRLS will be coming out from NAL in the spring of 2016.

    I mostly update the writing blog these days, so find me over there.

    More about me and my writing.
