Week Seven: By and by it comes...

Just a quick update: I'm still plugging away at Week Seven's challenge. I'm exploring the interview thing—the most difficult part is making it a short play with funny moments rather than a comedy sketch. Giving both characters equal moments to shine rather than just crazy person + normal person = hilarity.

(I guess I could just write a comedy sketch...)

Anyway, I've been writing a little bit each morning before work and it feels good.

And lastly, I know everyone's been waiting for this: I deleted my first spam comment earlier today! It's a real blog now!

Week Seven: "...and today, I am going to kill him."

So this one's kinda weird.

I think it was an idea I had for a comedic short film. A documentary or interview that's actually just a deranged person hunting down someone else, but treating it as if he's doing something very normal.

As you may have surmised by now, my interests were then and still are today all over the map. Short plays, short stories, prose poems, nonfiction, children's books, and now a short film... Pick a format! Well, it's all part of the process of discovery. (Or something.)

Anyway, uncertain how to dig in to this one. Could be that senseless murder seems less funny to me now that I'm older. 

With luck, maybe I can find a fun/unexpected angle to make it a little less... this...
