Ready or not, come what may

Wrote my first 4 pages of an actual script today.  I'm sure that it's utter crap, but I know it's not worse than my first lay, and that got better so should this.  Excited about it, and it does have a building, layering satisfaction to it.  Time consuming tho. 

Final issue of Planetary FINALLY came out this week.  Man, that was a long wait.  10 years for 27 issues.  That is not very prolific.  However, I was reminded how amazing a book it is.  I only found it in the waning years, but picked up all of them on back issue.  I will be rereading them all now that it's completed.  Mind blowing, meta commentary on comic books?  I'm in.

MotD: Following
A short, b&w independent British film about a writer who "follows" people around to see interesting things to write about.  Of course this leads to hijinx and he gets mixed up with a B&E man.  Eh, ok.  Sorta the same premise as Midnight Meat Train, except without the gore and demons.  So short that I can't hate on it, but so short that there just isn't a lot of "there" there.  It did look like a Depeche Mode video, which was kinda funny.
