Recovery

The Hun was good. Damn good even, as my other stuff was well-received too. And the Blacklist folks complained about the budget, but this budget is pretty manageable. And the characters are solid. I'm actually considering this the benchmark for my characters at this point. If they all turn out as good as these guys, it's literally only a matter of time and effort until they take me. Either way, I've sent The Hun off, and without waiting to hear back on it, I'm planning my next two projects. One is an older project I thought through, but not enough to make it work. So I'm jazzing up the characters and deepening the plot some before I get into it. It had potential, but struck me as weak, so I'd put it on pause. The other was one I intended to utilize while I can. I have to pop my WWII cherry at some point, so I'm going for it.

Both scripts are coming along. Both of them have pretty cool characters, and I love the shit out of my Nazi antagonist already. My main character is pretty cool as well. But my biggest regret is that I don't have a project in editing at this time. Planning one and editing another is the best damn thing. I feel like that's how to make the most efficient use of time.

In any case, I've taken the weekend off and I'm right back at it. But from what I can tell, most of the contests are staggered, so I'm perfecting my vision of The Hun, to show the Blacklist. It's a long shot, but they may be able to sell it. So, my recovery was brief, and now I'm throwing down again. Just like anything else I give a shit about, it's hard and fast, then taking a breath, and back to it.
