This is still somewhat rough. I also didn’t spellcheck it yet.
Anyway, here it is. If you read it, let me know what you think. Rest assured more drafts are forthcoming.

Just too much stuff going on. I have three other things going on right now which could be considered “jobs.” It will return though, probably next week. the week of 2/8 soon.
My apologies to regular readers, if any.

Thanks for visiting! I publish a new chapter of “Entourage:2039″ every Monday morning (on hiatus: returning soon), as well as other random stuff. Please let me know if you like (or hate) any of it. From the main page, you can use that little bubble at the upper right of the post to comment. Or there’s a comment box on the bottom of the individual post page. If you want to start at the beginning of the E:2039 story, chapter one is here.
My email is also over there on the right. If you’re interested you can follow me (@unicornrockstar), and/or @entourage2039 on twitter.
You people, the readers, you are the real heroes.

Actually Mr. Olson:
You can read one of my scripts.
Maybe. If you ask nicely.
You see, I’m a writer, and you’re a writer. Fuck “aspiring.” You happen to have had some financial success at it, while I have not, yet. That is the only difference between us. People who sell Amway make a lot of money too.

[To put my (lack of) money where my mouth is, anyone can read one of my feature scripts. Look over there on the right under downloads.]

[EDIT: While I still like this idea, this is on hold until I get some time.]
I’m just about done filling up this thing with old comedy sketches.
I was thinking today and I realized I took my first screenwriting class in 2001. My teacher told me it took “an average of 10 years” to “make it” and apparently he was right. Since then my focus has shifted a bit, away from writing and trying to sell specs, and towards writing, directing and producing my own movies.
I would never pretend to give an “insider scoop” or tell anyone how to “make it.” However I think I’ve accumulated some interesting stories in the last eight years and I might as well start telling them. This will be a limited time thing, maybe six months or so. I think everything on a blog should have an expiration date. Frankly I’m hoping this is something I can do without a lot of revising and agonizing over every word, because I just don’t have the time or energy at this point. This will also be something to read for my non “industry” friends who don’t watch Entourage and probably don’t get why I have to use swear words and talk about sex and stuff.
Anyway, for now the schedule will be:
Monday: Entourage:2039
Thursday: Memoirs or whatever
Random times: Archival content (sketches, scripts, etc)

I really really want to be in a writer’s group again. I used to be in one and I miss it a lot. If anyone knows of something a) in L.A., b) partially or completely focused on feature films, and c) where people use the phrases “industry” and “what sells” as little as possible – please do let me know.
