Confused? Here's how this works. 2008-11-02 06:19:00 It has come to my attention that many of you might be confused as to how this blog works. Especially those who only follow by email and don't receive all the comments. Unfortunately, I'm using Goggle's Blogger for this blog and it's not well designed for this purpose.If you've been following the action so far and not read the comments then it might seem as if we've jumped through the process.H
Giving it the full treatment! 2008-10-31 10:54:00 Ok, not quite a full treatment, no point in posting 50 pages of film treatment on a blog. So here's the abridged version for starters. Don't forget this is based on the comments received so far on this site - if you don't like something, speak up and we'll discuss the options.Just like to give a special mention to Joe Mama for inspiring me to knuckle down and write this, honestly I was unaffec Read more:Giving

Digital feature film inspired by a book and created by a blog! 2008-10-25 08:17:00 Forgive the title, but the more blog savy I become the more I understand the need to optimise certain aspects to entice more readers.

And the winner is! 2008-10-21 08:17:00 Thank you for all your comments and votes... Despite a strong anti-drugs policy at the beginning of the week, the 'caners' came through to level it out. So to tip the scales I've decided that the last comment by 'Info' was in favour of drugs. How this fits into the storyline is yet to be decided so stay tuned.Being new to blogging I've decided to do a bit of research to see if I'm adhering t Read more:winner
Just say no? 2008-10-14 02:11:00 Thanks again for all your comments, everybody has been incredibly positive (tempting fate!)... Which leads me to believe this project is worthwhile.Interestingly, you've come up with your own question this time.
