Welcome.

Hi there.

This is an online journal where I shall be writing mostly about, well, writing. I'll write about the methods I use and the mistakes I make along the way. I'll reflect on past projects, document about current works, and give hints and maybe sneak previews about upcoming ideas. I'll write about who and what inspires me in the entertainment realm, whether it be authors, short stories, scripts, movies, prominent entertainers, etc. I'm sure other things will sneak their way in here along the way, but it is not my intention to dwell endlessly on personal and private matters. I will do my best, however, to update it often and hopefully keep readers entertained in the process.

At the time of this entry I am neither published, famous, or wealthy in any way. It is my wish that this journal serve as a record of my journey toward oblivion, success, or that strange place between the two. Hopefully, as I submit more entries, other aspiring writers and artists can learn from my blunders and, on the rare occasion, accomplishments.

I have to thank fellow screenwriter-friend Angie for inspiring me to do this when she asked me whether I begin developing stories around characters or situational events first. The idea for this journal germinated from there and I may even talk about that specific question sometime.

If this kinda thing is YOUR kinda thing, here are two other awesome blogs that I read regularly and hope to reach even a fraction of their awesomeness.

Neil Gaiman's Journal: http://journal.neilgaiman.com/
-One of the most talented and versatile writers alive, this journal is an amusing and enlightening peek into his mind. If you haven't read American Gods yet, do so immediately. Creds to my cuz Brian for telling me of this journal's existence.

John August's Journal: http://johnaugust.com/
-Fascinating, useful information on screenwriting, writing in general, and almost anything else you can think of. Sheer awesomeness.
