Monday, April 29, 2013. Sometimes they get it half right! The opening scene to "Blood Runs Cold" is a horrific spectacle. I watched a horror flick tonight that had two opposing elements that repelled and attracted me. But first the hook:. Opening scene: A man lies face down. After a second there is movement. He is regaining consciousness, is b adly injured. Disoriented and his face is. Caked with blood and snow. As he lifts himself, he turns back toward his car. The vehicle has collided with. As it turne...

The Dark World of MJ Preston: July 2013
http://authormjpreston.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Support of the Arts. One of the toughest things about breaking out as a new author is getting people to notice you; especially if you're an independent. Since getting into this gig I have learned a thing or two about human nature. We as humans love to take, but we have a harder time giving. Although, let's face it, that would be kind of cool. Or even JK Rowling. I didn't get the break that allowed me to hand. I kid of course, I would have loved to have the ability to get up in the...

Saturday, March 28, 2015. THE NIGHT IT ALL CAME DOWN. On a Writer's Forum I visit someone asked if it is perseverance and discipline that makes a good writer. I, being the arrogant writer penned this response. When I was 17, I wrote the first (synopsis I suppose you would call it) for what I thought was going to be my breakout book. It was autobiographical in nature, based on my use of psychedelic drugs. When I awoke the next day my mind was blank. I left his office, turfed the prescription into the garb...

Saturday, April 19, 2014. When my kids lived at home we used to have a tradition that fell on every Friday, where we would get together and watch movies. It was our version of family night. Little secret, everyone in the Preston brood are big fans of the film genre. As the kids grew they discovered cooler things than sitting home with us and eventually my wife and I were left to watch alone. Jeepers Creepers director Victor Salva. Personally, it changed my view on Salva completely. Polanski would continu...
