I am working on a comics pitch with Brooklyn based writer Charles Soule, that takes place in a prison. I’m not allowed to say any more at this point, but I thought I would share a sneak preview with you. The plan was to have it finished today, but things keep getting in the way. Sorry, Charles!
I find it very hard to juggle all the projects sometimes, skipping between meetings, writing, drawing, coming up with new ideas, pitching new ideas, editing, networking, blogging, actual PAID WORK – not to mention the wife and kids. Yesterday I was at this big reception thing at a publishing house, met a lot of interesting people, writers and editors. Got home late and made lunches for my wife and daughter, half drunk. After dropping off the kids this morning I rushed to a meeting with a script consultant to get notes on my screenplay. Now I am all fired up to get some re-writing done, knowing I can’t, because I have to pick up the kids in a couple of hours and make dinner for them before rushing out to a business dinner.
I half-jokedly tweeted earlier this year, that my resolution for 2012 would be to start more projects than I finish. Seems I might just follow through on that. I’m hoping that a few of the novels, screenplays and comics pitches that are up in the air right now will get finished this year. And next year, get ready for STILETTO!
