http://joinjw.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 15, 2006. Smells Like Teen Spirit. When did this become me? Damn, it felt good to be a gangster!

Big Dreams from a Small Apartment. A verbose attempt to make sense of a young writer's year following the Feature Screenwriting lab at the Canadian Film Centre. Wednesday, June 28, 2006. A few weeks back I did an interview over email for Karen Walton's InkCanada (THE Canadian Screenwriter's community.growing and growing.).

No, not the Hollywood Blockbuster, "Broken Karr: The John Mark Karr Story". What is it that makes 3-name guys psycho? I've armed myself with a festival pass, a comfortable day pack, some culturally relevant sunglasses, and closed-toed shoes (it's chilly in the Varsity). Ready? Last year's Danish " Pusher. While I'm not c...

Gutterballs, Zipping, and Paul Anka. Most workweeks begin with an extra large green tea and a countdown. Monday, 10am: Only 39 more ‘official’ hours until the Sabbath. This past week, however, started on a much better note. Me: Uhhhh. (Checking call display to verify identity of unknown caller).yeah? This my first exper...

The Cheese Stands Alone. Just a quickie - I’m realising that information and opinions do not need to be stockpiled for an epic post every fortnight. I have done this once before, last year, prior to the CFC. I went in alone to talk about the festival circuit (when I’m. Now, quickly: This is the reason I came. While I ...

Big Dreams from a Small Apartment. A verbose attempt to make sense of a young writer's year following the Feature Screenwriting lab at the Canadian Film Centre. Friday, May 19, 2006.
