Okay folks. I have been avoiding Stage32 for a while..... Why? I had to focus. As of 9:15 pm Dayton, Ohio time May 4, 2016 I finally finished the first draft of the Screen Play I have had such trouble finishing! YAY! Now to set it aside and let it ferment for a month or so and then start the revisions!

Here you can listen to some of my works, I use them only to promote my job, then of course I create new...

It's in the can! Three crazy days of shooting after weeks of preproduction for the short. Actually we wrapped on Monday, but I needed a couple of recovery days to be able to interact as a human. Great cast and crew! Now on to Post!

Brian Shell

Progress in progress, eh John? Keep up the good work. Remember that the finished product is the edited work which makes the most of what you wrote, filmed, and put together. You can do it!

John Garrett

Brian, you are absolutely correct and so we are moving into that phase! A number of small steps involved, but we are on a schedule! Thank you so much for the support!

John Garrett

Two days until production. I have moments of doubt, followed by knowing that you can't eat an elephant in one bite. If I focus on the thing in front of me, get it done, and go to the next thing, it will be okay. I have some wonderful and talented people involved on the project and I don't have to do everything myself. Breath.....Breath.....

One step at a time... one step at a time... and make each step you take Count

John Garrett

@ Ellis, yeah a short I wrote about a year ago, and have beaten into shape to the point I felt it HAD to be made. So we are making it! @ Brian, that is what I keep telling myself. and making it count is a great point. Motion does NOT equal productivity.

Hi John! Thank you for the connection, much appreciated. I hope life is treating you well?

I think I may write/record an entire blog/vlog on casting for a short film in the Midwest. It is a whole experience that is kind of like giving birth. Painful, ugly, messy, and you don't get what you expect. But I suspect it will turn out better than I could have imagined.

John Garrett

Started a project with a fellow Stage32 writer! We have started the casting process. Exciting time!

John Garrett

I had to laugh today. Reading a post and comments in the screenwriting forum I found myself thinking, "They are arguing semantics." Then I realized it is a post full of writers... of course they are.
