Happy Holidays!

I’m spending the holidays with the cat. But seeing as how the cat’s passed out on the swing at the moment, looks like I’m flying solo. Today I broke out the five disc box of Christmas extravagance that Sufjan Stevens released last year. And it’s supposed to snow today, so I’m off to pour some […]

WGA Strike in New Mexico

A week ago I joined several other WGA members, aspiring writers and even a few SAG members in Albuquerque to do a little picketing. I was surprised to find out that there was a WGA contingent out here big enough to pull something like this together. I met a couple of the organizers at a […]

Strike News: Cute Animals

I’m off to get my tooth drilled. Since I don’t want to let the morning slip away without a WGA strike-related post, enjoy this piece of clever WGA strike you-tubery. I think that’s David Cross as the scab.

Speechless #15: Just What’s On The Page

Here’s another of the Speechless shorts.

WGA Strike Swag

Writers come up with the best slogans. Get one on your shirt and support the cause by visiting the WGA Strike Swag site. I just ordered myself a shirt. Order one for yourself as well. My favorite slogan? “We write. They wrong.”

Andromeda – Future Rock

When I was a kid I was a fan of Buck Rogers. I’m talking about the TV show in which Gil Gerard jumped around in his white suit and knocked out bad guys. There was some great stuff in that show, especially for a nine-year-old Star Wars fan. Twiki was… alright, he was a little […]

Farval Falkenberg Trailer

Just a quick post today. I scraped myself out of a dream this morning at 6:30, lurched like Igor into the kitchen and made coffee and have set about tackling my daily 1500 words so I can head down to Albuquerque. I discovered a local knot of WGA-ers and they’re actually going to picket a […]

Speechless #20: Woody Allen

Director George Hickenlooper and writer Alan Sereboff have teamed up to create a series of mini-shorts designed to throw light onto the issue of writers. Using top – tier SAG artists and clever presentation of ideas, they’ve put together a whole series of these amazing pieces. They began “airing” on Thanksgiving an United Hollywood.com. Of […]

NaNoWriMo: 50,127

Man, I picked a bad month to try to re-start this blog. Nothing gets in the way of blogging quite like deciding to write 50,000 words in thirty days. Well, almost nothing. Decapitation can get in the way of blogging. In fact, most dismemberment leads to blogging slowdown. My point is that I was do […]
