About Me

I might be living in a morrissey song. I have a predilection towards reclusiveness without outside influence. I am plagued by Infornography. I plan to enter the adrenaline-emotion-delivery business.
I almost died at least once: "It was like being in a space buggy on the 13th moon of Saturn in a methane ice storm trying to find your way to safety."-christopher
I'm currently trying to teach myself how to be a writer. Unfortunately I'm not a writer, but I will not let this stop me. The main project I'm currently working on is jetta:
a guy is beginning to abandon his dreams and give up hope in the life he really wants. his back-up plan is the career that his father has chosen. it's up to his friends to convince him that he's wrong (while trying to have the ultimate summer vacation!) and they've got to do it before school starts back up.
(this project 'parodies' many other movies, but takes itself somewhat seriously. I hope other people find it funny...because I worry that the entire project may be a two-percenter:
"A two-percenter is a joke that the writers estimate will be understood and enjoyed by two percent of the audience. Sometimes the number cited varies, but the idea is the same, it means you're dealing with a fairly obscure reference. As an audience member, when you're part of the two percent that gets it, there's nothing better than this kind of joke because it feels like the writer is reaching into your own personal brain. In a good way."~Jane Espenson)
