Joe's blog: IT FOLLOWS - 1st draft complete
http://joeyang1.blogspot.com/2009/05/it-follows-1st-draft-complete.html
Where Joe discusses writing, movies, and all sorts of creative stuff. Monday, May 11, 2009. IT FOLLOWS - 1st draft complete. A few days ago, I finished the first draft of my 2nd novel. Now I'm in the revision/editing stage. And as it is with most revisions I make, much of the central storyline has totally changed. So suffice it to say, the plot description of It Follows. As seen on my website, is no longer accurate. But fear not, the story is much more focused and probably works better now.

Joe's blog: Cheerios...a drug?
http://joeyang1.blogspot.com/2009/06/cheeriosa-drug.html
Where Joe discusses writing, movies, and all sorts of creative stuff. Friday, June 19, 2009. Everyone's heard of the cereal Cheerios, right? And if you pick up a box, you'll see some sort of label claiming that it's good for your heart and lowers cholesterol. I'm not sure if that's actually true or not, because personally, I don't eat Cheerios. I think it tastes like cardboard. I'm not joking. The federal government, in all of its infinite wisdom, wants to classify Cheerios as a drug! Now, I'm not sure i...

Where Joe discusses writing, movies, and all sorts of creative stuff. Tuesday, February 17, 2009. The horror of 80's videogames. With scary games such as House of the Dead. Or 6, or whatever number they're up to these days), you practically participate in a horror movie where you get to control the outcome of the story. But what about the videogames of yesterday? Sure, those cute graphics, beeps, and boops seemed so innocent and harmless. But were they? Who would direct if it's made into a movie. All the...

Where Joe discusses writing, movies, and all sorts of creative stuff. Sunday, May 31, 2009. I'm feeling better about the second draft of It Follows. But right now I'm essentially rewriting much of the story. It'll be more psychological and character-based, and even though it's a long process, I think it'll be a better book because of the changes. My goal is to get this thing done in June. Wish me luck! Links to this post. Monday, May 11, 2009. IT FOLLOWS - 1st draft complete. Links to this post.

Where Joe discusses writing, movies, and all sorts of creative stuff. Tuesday, March 24, 2009. What's scary these days anyway? A few years ago, when "torture porn" schlock such as the Saw. Movies arrived in cinemas, people really started getting scared that the nation's youth was (yet again) headed down the path of destruction. But years later, the Hostel. Sequel and the Saw. In other words, the world didn't come to an end because of a few sick movies. So what scares people these days? Freddy Krueger and...
