Looks like ScreenTalk will be back on the air live starting next week. I haven’t been given a lineup yet, but as soon as I do I’ll be sure to let you know.
I’d like to take a moment and let everyone know that, while the blog posts might seem erratic right now, they are that way for good reason. Most of my time now is devoted to supporting Horror Screenwriting, which includes photo shoots, interviews, and even commercials.
It snuck up on some of you, no doubt, but National Novel Writing Month (aka Nanowrimo) has begun as of midnight this morning. I hope there are thousands of you out there cranking away on your own novels and reaching that seemingly elusive 10 pages-a-day count.
My article on the Writers Store came out, hot off the presses. It’s an abbreviated piece of one of the chapters in Horror Screenwriting: The Nature of Fear, so if you want a taste test, have a look.
After digging around on the Internet (Google, what would I do without you?) I’ve found a few in-depth reviews of Horror Screenwriting.
Horror Screenwriting is now available through Michael Wiese, my publisher. You can order it for a short time for 25% off the list price.
Yes, there is a story behind the cover art for Horror Screenwriting. Originally I had conceived of something more along the lines of a comic book depiction of Death driving a souped-up hot rod, cigarette in hand hanging out of the driver’s side window. But the final artwork became something even more.
Last Thursday my book Horror Screenwriting: The Nature of Fear officially went to the printers after approval of the spine and back cover by myself and my editor.
I couldn’t help but post this again from another forum. These are actual headlines found in newspapers all over the world. It shows how unintentionally funny English can be.
