Anyone ever read "Foucault's Pendulum" by Umberto Eco and think, The Name of the Rose was a great movie! Why isn't Foucault's Pendulum a movie?

Well, because the book is too damn long to be a movie.

So I adapted it into a four-episode mini-series.

If anyone would like to trade scripts for feedback, I am off for the summer (being an English teacher and all that) and have time to read!

I have a couple of features and some half-hour pilots.

I wrote a song for a script I'm only halfway through the first draft of.
This is procrastination!

Just got an idea for a Christmas movie. The hook. The gaff. THE INCITING EVENT. Always wanted to try one of these but never got a new take on it, you know?

Nice to know the muse has not deserted me. To celebrate: a doodle!

Got seven unfinished scripts lying open begging me to write.
What do I do?
Doodle. I doodle.

I'm very happy there is the 5 AM writers club, but let's hear it for the late-night procrastination club. Music. Doodling. There may be snacks involved.

Anyone spending more time doodling than writing?

Here's SLUG - the mutant sidekick from my post-apocalyptic comedy.

As an aside: At what point does a live-action script become so ridiculous it should be a cartoon?

First page Friday!

Two fighting families on a yacht, a family of orcas, an enormous duffle bag of uppers, downers and sidewaysers, a dead baby orca and blood. SO much blood.
Vibe: Downton Abbey meets Jaws.

Took a stab at a new take on Shakespeare's "Tempest".

It was a no-go. Been done better. #ForbiddenPlanet

So, for anyone else tempted by The Bard, here is a doodle idea for the poster.

No one knew magic existed until it ended and the creatures that used to be invisible to us appeared in our world. Ancient enemies must learn to work together to survive. Who is the real monster?

"HOME FOR MONSTERS" is the prequel movie for a TV series. #Scriptsky+ #scriptsky

Hello, I'm a college professor, closet script writer and inveterate procrastinator (see attached doodle)

Question: Do graphic artists write to procrastinate?
