My recent obsession with being distant


Like always, I think and dream too much. It's one of those things few - or many do, but speak very little of it, do every second of their live's... everyday I say to Charlotte "you know what I wanna do?...", the list is endless. But for many years now I have been contemplating writing a screen play, short story of something to do with the film medium or story writing world(s).

Sitting in St James' park on the day before the hottest day on British weather records, I was with a few friends drinking some rum and cherry coca-cola and listening to them talk. Listening talk about their passion in life, It got me wanting to write. Like I said - I don't know what it would be, a screenplay or short story. But It got me talking to my mate and asking if he would be up for drawing a story that I'd think up (see his stuff here).

So as we speak, whilst listening to my recently made Michael Jackson playlist ('Man In The Mirror' is blasting right now) I'm blueprinting ideas for something. Think High Fidelity, a much better version of that shit film the kid from Super Bad made 'Nick and Norah's infinite indie band name dropping 90 minute excuse of what hollywood like to call 'indie' film and the greatest of them all Mr. Wes Anderson.
