As some of you long term readers of this blog, there are a bunch of other people that amaze me some time. And just to remember, this blog began in August 2009.
We've been on this 7 years. And a lot of words. For those who just started, you really should go back to the beginning, especially the TV series blogs that lasted for almost a month or so. It was quite a difficult show and a lot of fighting in the writer's room. And also get a chance to see a real movie star of the 60's era and how she saved my life one night in a bar.
The bar scene is also in my book "How Not To Get Beat Up In A Small Town Bar".
Yes, that's the title. The book is about my traveling across U.S. and Canada and even Paris. Stories about the people I met. Check it out on Amazon.
But what's even better is this --
There are a lot of readers on this blog. A lot. Look --
Amazing.
And I'll buy anyone a coffee when you're in town, or already in town. Any time. Sherman Oaks.
But there's more...
The Ghostkeeper deal is done, we're going to do a Blu-ray version of the film with Code Red distributors. It should be out in the new year.
And another deal is getting more attention. One of my scripts. Wouldn't that be nice for 2017.
Meanwhile, go have Christmas, enjoy with family or friends.
Finally decided on my next spec script. Haven't really written one since S.O.B., the pilot that's running around looking for a home.
In case you forgot, it's about two women who had married the same man, not at the same time. One was in her 50's, the other was 22. And they have inherited their ex husband's a falling apart Private Investigation company. Actually a store-front on Ventura Boulevard.
And the S.O.B. isn't what you think. Rather it is a real estate term referring to homes being on the south side of Ventura Boulevard have more esteem than the south side.
Thus S.O.B. South of the Boulevard.
It's already been registered so I'm not worried.
So my new one is a TV movie, of which I spoke of in the last few blogs. While the old TV movies ended around 2008, I am going for the new "TV movies" which can still connect with some networks like Hallmark (yes, the Hallmark company makes lots of them) and also Lifetime and SyFy networks.
True, there isn't the amount of TV movies around. But there are series all over the place and new networks I haven't even seen yet have short series. TV is certainly taken over theatrical movies and I don't really think that the Oscar lot isn't all that great. In fact the last few oscar players weren't all that good either.
So my new movie, also registered, is a flashback movie, a young girl getting married falls down just about when she is to get married and is suddenly back in the 1960's searching for a lost family heirloom that her grandmother lost when she was to marry. And to make it even a little more I'm throwing in the moon landing.
The moon landing?
Well, it was the 60's, after all. Why not? 1969!!
I'm just starting to play with the story, using my favorite software, Power Structure. No sales here, I just like it.
And finally, I'm going to show you a script that has been hanging along since 1985.
Before Strange Things.
Before Walking Dead.
Two words: Burger Zombies.
Beware.
