Well, I have a little while before I have my first WUSHU sessions. Well, I say first, it's my first session which is completely dedicated to Wushu. Usually we do a bit on Thursdays at Wing Chun.
I know it's going to hurt a bit, but well, no pain no gain is it.
I am entering Script Frenzy this year, so that should be good. Not sure exactly what I am going to write, but it's either a TV Pilot, Film, or Graphic Novel, I have a "coming of age" idea that I have been toying with for a really long time I think I would like to attempt. I think I need to do something a bit different from my usual Sci Fi and Fantasy.
It think the last really good children's aimed coming of age was Bridge to Terebithia. So with that in mind I though I would go back to some old notes and see what I had. To be honest, it needs some work, but it could be a great experiment.
People seem to forget what they are actually about, it's quite a sad genre, the death of innocence, that moment where you suddenly realise what the world is about, and where it could possibly go. It seems weird, it when summers were eternal, and playing tag was the best thing in the world, before you realise that to do everything you need money, and life get complicated.
I was going to set it all in 1994, but I think it's too specific, non descriptive is probably better, I'll see how it turns out when I start writing on April 1st.
Well, that's all for now.

I never saw bridge of terebithia, although I remember the book and it was awfully sad :[
