Your Stories on the Big Screen?

Ever picture yourself on the big screen? I have. Not so much acting or anything like that but I have pictured my story on the big screen. Yeah I know, kinda silly but hey, why not? When any of us, Authors and Writers that is, writes anything, it has usually been played out in our heads over and over.  Whether it is action or dialog between character they are scenes that are dramatic and worthy of anyone’s attention. How well we express these scenes is another thing altogether. Sometimes I’ll have an actor or actress playing out the scenes I write. Other times the characters are unique to themselves and they are played out by characters that only your own imagination can come up with. It makes me think that the whole casting process for a movie can be quite interesting.

Well, I just wanted to put some of my thoughts on this out there in front of you. At times I have felt silly for thinking such things but when it comes down to it, we all start out thinking that the piece of fiction or fantasy going through your head is a little ridiculous. But then it becomes a full-blown story that you are trying to push on Amazon or Smashwords. So why not a movie? Why shouldn’t Your Story be on the Big Screen?

Hello Blog, Old Friends, and New Friends.

Hey there blog. How have you been. I know I’ve neglected you a bit lately, only showing up to post a link to a quick video that I thought might satisfy you till I found the time to post something meaningful. The only excuse I have is that I’ve been busy. I’ve been working hard at my job and on this story I’ve been writing. I’ve also been pushing the first book I wrote in hopes that one day people will get to read it and maybe even enjoy it. I have to say, that in the process, I have met a lot of good people. The communities of writers, authors and readers out there are fantastic and have been very supportive.

The last couple of years have been rough to say the least. With an accident at work that about killed me and another that crushed one of my fingers, I sometimes find it difficult to go in and work without fear of what is going to happen next. Family, friends, coworkers and those who I have met online here recently, in many ways have helped me to continue.

So, my Blog, it is my hope that the coming year will bring you and I closer. Perhaps when I get my bearings straight we can spend more time together and return some of the help and support that has been given to me here recently. Perhaps together we can continue to show videos of what we are listening to while moving forward with real purpose.
