Not sleeping a whole lot. Very tired.
Am in New Mexico chicken sitting Clara, Jacquie's pet chicken, and putting together a film Sizzle for my vampire novels. Just got done writing a story version of my screenplay, from the shooting script. That was cool. It hasn't been in a straight story thing since I originally wrote it back in July/August of '08. So...now after all of the edits and whatnots it is nice to see it again in a story version!
The book editors are still doin' the editing work on my two novels and I have started to get chapters in. (yeah!) But, I have had no time to work on what they have sent me. Oh well...God willing and time I'll get to it while I am here. But, if I don't that's cool. I'll do the final edits back in Maryland over the coming Holidays (Holy-Daze).
And....
After God-knows-how-long I finally showed a gallery owner some of my art and he wants to do a show. So, I have been asked to either do a full one person show next July or be apart of a group show. My choice. So...that's cool. The gallery is in New Mexico. So, maybe this will get me off my keister and start showing off my stuff. Hmmmmm, whatdayu think about that?
Am bogged down by lady troubles. Without getting into here too deeply I'll just say that my heart has been violently ripped from my chest, danced on, stuffed back in and peppered sprayed, and then pulled out again and yelled at over a series of days, and shoved back down my throat and told where to go. Needless to say I feel less than...well than an ant crushed under my shoe. It has me anxious and unable to sleep, which is stressful, and I am seriously thinking of using a sleep aid, and on top of it the whole experience has, yet again, made believe that I should never date...that all I will ever get is rejected, rancid love and that I am not worthy of love and should just forget about it forever. This, of course, was where I was at two and a half years ago when I stopped dating and went into writing seclusion. Now, I come out of it only to be immediately, and without reproach, thrust back into it.
...The whole thing makes me wish that there were enough really cool things on TV that I could just disappear into. Oh well. Still breathing so...that's good. Doing Tai Chi helps.
No news yet on whether my vampire screenplay will get made into a film. My Entertainment Lawyer keeps saying that he has news to tell me and "Big" meetings...but, after a month and a half of that he does not update me on the news and time keeps ticking , ticking, ticking. Though...he did ask for the straight story script so hopefully that will help and he'll arrive with news - good or bad or average or funny. Am just fearful that everyone else and their brother's cheesy vampire script will get made and we'll be stuck with the same ole same boring bullshit in the genre and mine will never get to see the light of day. I know...self pitying bullshit! !:yuck:!
But, with people getting frustrated by all of the overblown Twilight-Vamp-Sucking over-saturated industry BS I just feel that every day that I struggle, struggle, struggle to get my script read and get my 8 minute video Sizzler shot that I am loosing more and more ground to even stake a claim in the genre.
I know I have something unique in my vampire stories that will excite the vamp fans everywhere. But..."day after day love turns gray like the skin on a dying man" (Pink Floyd Lyrics)
Hope all you silent, unseen people with your amazingness are doing well and living well.
