This Is What Happened

October 30th - via: kickstarter.com
We're on the last day of this Kickstarter project, and we're a bit short on funding. You may not get to read None of This Has Happened Yet if we don't make it, but then again, that hasn't happened yet either. We'll know at midnight. A few final... (Read More)

Gloomy Sunday: Adapting the First Chapter for Film - Part 3

October 28th - via: kickstarter.com
In the last update I spoke about the production process - the actual filming of the piece. This update it's all about movie magic. Quite a bit of the video has some slight effects on it, some you can't really notice - some are there for you to... (Read More)

Gloomy Sunday: Adapting the First Chapter for Film - Part 2

October 26th - via: kickstarter.com
If you ask me, production is both the most stressful, and most fun out of the three different phases of film making. The video for this campaign took us three days to shoot - one to do Mike's part and the flashback shots, one to do the roof scene,... (Read More)

Gloomy Sunday: Adapting the First Chapter for Film.

October 24th - via: kickstarter.com
As we enter the last week of the Kickstarter, I thought it would be interesting to mix things up a little bit. This week I plan on turning our Monday, Wednesday and Friday updates over to the man who made the video for the project. Of course, I'll... (Read More)

The Scream: The Cover of None of This Has Happened Yet

October 20th - via: kickstarter.com
When it came time to decide imagery for the cover of None of This Has Happened Yet, I was mightily hampered by my lack of artistic vision. I’m not a visual guy—the sell text was easy, but the cover idea was nightmarish. I danced around the idea... (Read More)

Maybe Some of This Shouldn’t Happen Yet: The Ending

October 18th - via: kickstarter.com
I’m going to have to do a little dance, as K.C. and the Sunshine Band once said, to keep from revealing the end of None of This Has Happened Yet, but I think it merits calling out. Because I knew, from the get-go, that I’d have to circle back... (Read More)

Some of This Has Happened: History During Revision

October 14th - via: kickstarter.com
A small reveal about a later chapter in None of This Has Happened Yet: a machete makes short work of a character. That weapon of choice wasn’t my first—I wrote the scene with a chainsaw to begin with. Turns out, chainsaws weren’t very common at... (Read More)

From the “Movie” Trailer: The Dress and the Grave

October 12th - via: kickstarter.com
When we were shooting the pseudo movie trailer for this Kickstarter, we included a brief shot of a man’s hands pulling a dirt-covered dress from the earth. The scene in None of This Has Happened Yet takes place deeper into the tale, and while I... (Read More)

Inspiration: Time

October 10th - via: kickstarter.com
Time and its elasticity fascinate me. And stories that play with the presentation of time are high on my list of favorites, though I will concede I think film does it better than print. (In books, I always seem to get lost as to where—and when—we... (Read More)

Origins: Maximilian Montgomery

October 7th - via: kickstarter.com
Max started off being me. Thank God he didn’t stay that way, but I began thinking of his character based on the anger I felt in my long-ago youth and the guilt that often followed my moments of rage. I broke inanimate objects as if I could break... (Read More)

Origins: Elizabeth Lovejoy

October 5th - via: kickstarter.com
I remember when one of the third-tier actors in Gone with the Wind died, a reviewer said, “The last of the cast has passed on.” Um, Olivia de Havilland, who received third billing as Melanie, is actually still alive. That set me to thinking about... (Read More)

And we’re on our way!

October 3rd - via: kickstarter.com
Day one of the Kickstarter for None of This Has Happened Yet was a little nerve-wracking but exciting just the same. In writing a book, you tend to conveniently “forget” that it’s intended for an audience; your focus is on the act of putting... (Read More)
