A (slight) distraction from blogging...


Though I plan to continue using my blog as a medium for communicating my ongoing cultural observations, research (which, admittedly, I haven't done much of up to this point), and other random quips, I have begun writing a screenplay, which will inevitably demand more of my time and creative energies than regular, consistent blogging would allow. I may provide details about my screenplay sometime later on, but at this point the narrative is really just a sketch, and I'm mostly concerned right now with profiling the major characters in the story. I would love to dialogue with some of you about the possibilities for the characters, themes, and overarching narrative...let me know if you're interested! Burke has already helped immensely in sparking some thoughts and inspiration for characters, setting, and story. Who knows, maybe you'll get "Written By" credits when it is made into a Hollywood blockbuster...

the lead role is about a guy named Derek who grew up in Atlanta, moved to Cincinnati, met a girl, got married and moved back to Atlanta, ironically, only minutes from where he grew up. But that's not the story; the story is everything that happened along the way.

DEREK

Ha, ha

Sounds like a good start! Maybe you should write that one, though...
