Hello everyone.
This letter is a quick update to tell you that I am finally writing the first scenes of my long-awaited story. This idea has been kicking around in my brain for several years, lockdown and the impending second wave of the pandemic have given me the impetus to crack on and write the bloody thing.
I’m learning as I go along, particularly the format of a screenplay. There are a few rules to stick to, but generally speaking, it is putting the movie in my head into words and onto paper. Now, this could become a long story and can work as many different mediums. It could be a graphic novel, a comic book, a TV show or maybe even a movie.
The title of this newsletter gives you an idea of where my head is at. I’m mixing genres. It is comedy, action, sci-fi, horror and fantasy. There are blood and guts, sex and violence and very dark comedy. I’m unsure how long this project will take, the first draft is going to be epic, twisted and features things that I’ve never seen in anything I’ve watched or read before. It is quite unique. The characters are complicated and the plot is twisted. It is going to be awesome.
In between the writing, I am looking for ways to get the work in front of people who might be interested in taking the project further, I would appreciate some help; so if you know of someone that can steer me in the right direction, please get in touch.
Wish me luck.
Until next time, adieu.
