Er
I fell over.
Yeah that'll do. I fell over for roughly eighteen months. But hey, did I party at the same time!
Yeah! Rock and roll!
Things I have done in the intervening period, as well as falling down.
Heh - period.
I ... er ...
Finished the MA. Had my first script optioned - my MA project, Lilith the vampire thing. Not going anywhere with it at the moment, I got some development money from North West VIsion, but I am slightly at odds with the dudes who optioned it, so we have to do one of those 'what now?' development meetings to assess what we want it to look like in the near future ...
Now writing an - unpaid of course - script which has attracted a lot of interest from a famous German director. As in ... ask people who he is and they drool and say 'wha?'. But then name some of his films and they go 'gah' and smile and nod. And then they drool some more!
So the writing is moving ahead nicely. Not easy when you have fallen down but there you go.
Whilst being in this little puddle of mid-fall lowness, I also ... er ... struggling here, as there isn't much to tell.
Split up with Mrs MWF.
Moved out of the house. Living on the parental farm. Because I am thirty six.
Had a minor mental breakdown and went on funny pills.
Quit the job. Now writing full time for a year.
So all in all a pretty even time.
Watch this space for more pop ... er ... pop pickers.
