the world is a mess and there's lots of noise
talking about change, about Basara's days of the week, which leads into discussing the gods and the races and mythology of that world and still not getting to breaking down the DEATH DEATH DEATH char…
today, i'm gonna talk about the days of the week*
thoughts about villainy and character motivation get me reviewing Disney's 'Wish' and thinking back on Friday the 13th, slasher films in general, and future notions regarding DEATH DEATH DEATH.

no one listens to this show
death death death update and suprising myself, a dream i once had and the future audience of this show, michael myers minute and obsessing about filming locations and being a good podcast guest.
it keeps the demons at bay
groundhog day project blog day 578... musicals, escapism, not universalizing your writing, method participation, home alone, fear, and nicole kidman totally plagiarized this blog entry.
my special interest that i never had
shifting titles, plans for new stories and remixing old ones, plus creole and language, and finding focus when the world is a mess.
before the faller man
sorting out my notes and characters and deciding the order of deaths for death death death. getting ready to really outline this thing and get writing.
as soon as i made that decision
I talk about Lee, the anthropomorphic rabbit detective from a future story, Choose Two Rabbits, because I'm not yet working on Death, Death, Death...
Also, should it be Death Death Death, no commas?
i like the idea that i was writing regularly again
a brief update about potential writing projects to come.
i'm looking forward to the next thing
there have been a few episodes i've recorded but not shared. so, here's an update on how the novel i've been writing is going, plus plans for the future.
my brain is constantly harping
a little update on projects on hiatus, current projects, upcoming projects, and living inside my brain.
i don't even remember now
unfinished episodes, under the snow, song of fellfaraway, future plans, cock & bull movie talk, and the groundhog day project: minute by minute.
my main character is still a cypher
recent loops, rhapsody on a theme of paganini, and character backstory.
the story of the last syllable notes file number eight
umbrella academy, learning the piano, royal promises, the sator square, last day of june, meet cute.
what you want to spend your time doing
#moviesbyminutes podcasting, the groundhog day project, lawrence/julie & julia, julie powell, legacies, and what matters.
that's what makes me happy
creative blocks, autistic burnout, musicals, halloween ends, and circling back to creative projects.
