Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic
Watch the above. I have.
I finished a short story tonight called "Wrong." It feels good to accidentally write something. After finishing the script for "W. T. for Short," I was supposed to relax a bit and prepare for the horror movie script. Well, I started that one, too, but I had an idea for a short story. The idea was different enough to earn some time to be written now. So it's done. I'll start typing in the story soon because I wish to share as soon as possible.
The horror movie doesn't have a title yet. Though, I have put a lot a thought into it the last few days. It is consuming, which is nice. I have a beginning and an ending that's stuck for a while. I just have to work on the middle a bit more which is really something to justify the ending, show how a person can get to Point C (A being the beginning and B the middle bits). I also need to come up with a few back stories for various things. I need to do some location scouting. If I knew of a location now, I could better tailor the back stories to the location. I am trying hard not to get ahead of myself and also not to take this too seriously. If I allow it, I can certainly feel the pressure of making sure I have The Story to make the movie out of, the One and True Great Story. No worries. I just rely on my ego and arrogance to support my notion that not only do I have The Right Story but I certainly know what I'm doing and will be able to do this. Some call it confidence. I usually don't. I've got too much hard-headedness going on to just call it confidence.
Well, I'm going to go watch the Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic trailer again, maybe once more after that. Then I'll probably listen to some Chris Isaak or watch some horror movie. Maybe both. Who knows?

From a Hole in the Sky
13 Stories of Horror, Madness, and Religion make up this dark-kudzu collection. A city run by angels with demanding burial rites. A white van jostling with clowns and warnings about sleep. A weeping pastor with a dead man in a boat. Homicide, Suicide, Jesus, and The Devil. To join a family, you're going to need some stitches. Kids today on their way to cut grass and play cowboys and injuns'. A hole in the ground where poor John Henry met a foul ending. And unholy birthing machines with a chosen one. All this and more. Where do bad things come from? They come FROM A HOLE IN THE SKY.
