write-wing

Heh, I think that is a clever title even if it has very little to do with this post.

So, I had this long conversation with my mom yesterday. I’ve been feeling a bit bummed because I am having trouble finding my artistic voice and I’ve been having a general writing block. Nothing seems original, interesting, or good. I should probably stop worrying about it and just write, but I can’t think of anything I want to write about. There are a few issues, situations, emotions that I want to explore in writing, but none of them I can flesh out into a good story. I actually have been in the mood recently to write a horror/thriller, even though it is such a film-student cliche. Mine would break the mold in that I shoot for creepy and eerie instead of slasher.

It’s rated R, but the new Ammityville Horror remake looks interesting. It is produced by Michael Bay who produced Armaggeddon and the Rock, but he also produced the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, so it looks like I’m not the only one in a mood to do horror. The original Ammityville Horror had potential, but I seriously almost started laughing at the end when he fell into the “evil oil” or whatever it was. Ammityville II was dang scary, though.

Okay, back to me. Speaking of, a friend of mine just got in trouble for one of her friends for the content of her blog. I’m glad I am egotistic and pretty much write about myself.

So, this professor (who isn’t even my professor) came in to the equipment room and suggested I submit a screenplay for the Cherones class. I’ve thought about it. I hope I don’t submit something because it doesn’t live up to my own impossibly high standards. Meh, It’ll be alright.

    I saw a flyer at Phifer the other day recruiting actors for a slasher/musical. I thought that would be way entertaining to watch.

    Yes, it is good that you’re egotistical. I need to be more that way concerning blogs, anyway. This issue is still going on, with emails and crap. Apparently, she dug through a ton of old entries and found other things she’s hurt by. So, because of all this, I went back through almost all my entries, ever. It’s taken quite a while. I realize that I truly am a horrible person, and I write things that really will hurt others and probably embarrass me if I KNEW how many people actually saw the stupid thing. My problem is, I assume the only person reading it is Sarah, but that’s not true. I don’t know if you still read mine, but I’m sorry if I ever wrote anything to offend you personally. Your name did come up several times in my entries, and at the time I wrote them, I just assumed you weren’t reading, but what do I know. So, sorry if it hurt you in any way. I’m going to take your advice and start being very vague, and not use names. Dang this comment is long.

    So, have you decided to get out of the blogging game – I see your LJ has been deleted.

    I’d start a new one and write more about yourself and your views on things and the world and crap. It is an amazingly great writing exercise.
