Re:We will see what an oracle isn’t and what I believe it is…
I want the sci-fi I want…..
Selfish, non? I guess the best rule of thumb is to write what i want and then submit but you know…. not everyone can sit on their dumpus and collect checks; some of do have jobs but yet cannot write worth a damn with all their free time so like the bloodsuckers they are leech every original thought .
Look Dowly man, you’re not me, may be you were like me once upon a time 30 yrs ago when you were still wanting that lucky streak and you actually had to PUSH yourself to not only work to survive but part of you had to write as well. These two demands for time, at least for me are not co-habitating well especially right now but my best ideas come out now when i can’t touch them or sacrifice sleep.
Everyone goes through cycles in life obviously. If you don’t get a handle on your own personal cycle you are going to have events “happen before and happen again.” This is the down cycle of writing. You’ve reach a point of comfort in your life and the series. You will not challenge yourself because of this comfort which you know leads to boredom/ and well arrogance because no one likes to be called a hack so the “I’m an artist so screw the fans”force field snaps up so guess what we have next…. you know what… problems.
All people I’ve talked to about ST: said well they may have watch the early TNG but after a while the writing took a nose-dive and became really stupid and boring. ya think it might be a down cycle?
What did you do to get out of it last time? You got out of it; left ST behind, floundered around a bit and changed up your life.
Ya think you might want to make changes BEFORE you ruin another show; your big “solo” performance as producer and writer?
Speaking of Trek…… hehehe hahahahohoh huhuh!
It’s…….[url]http://trekfest.com/trekfest.htm[/url]
I’m there and hopefully I’ll get some photos of the “Federation Games” including Tribble Whack, Horta egg toss,etc….
and the eps of ST TOS all the time!
It’s very Midwest in flavor, I mean they include a lot of activities that we are used to seeing here like a greased pig contest and a tractor pull 🙄 😛 but well they do have a costume contest.
ANd drinking, we will be drinking; it may be my last event like this so I’m thrilled to give it a try.
