Not contributing anything to my blog, clearly. I've been keeping extremely busy with an episode of WATERLOO ROAD for the BBC. And the problem is that - for obvious reasons (secrecy regarding the plot, for instance) - there hasn't been much to say... other than it was hard work but a lot of fun and involved working with some people who are very good at being creative under pressure. It's episode 9 of the next series... and I'll post a transmission date when I'm sure of one.
Right now, I'm working on a bit of radio (about avant-garde big band leader Sun Ra), attempting to finish a film script that's been gestating just long enough and developing an idea for a TV series with a trusted friend.
This blog began as a way of posting bits of my own journalism as they were published. The problem is that whenever I take on a screenwriting job, the journalism dwindles to next to nothing, and screenwriting's my own personal headache... not much to say around here. So, I'm moving my own journalism over to the right (☛) and I'm going to turn the blog into something a little more like, well, a blog, posting links to film, culture and technology stories wherever I find them.
Back soon...
