jon_chaissonIt's been a busy first week of June in terms of creativity...I've shifted all my focus on two other projects and plan to be working on them until completion. Why, you ask? Well, it all boils down to turnover time and interest. These two projects are ones that I've worked off and on with for years (and I do mean years, in so many different versions, outtakes and so on) and I've been drawn to them once more. SO! What I've been doing is working on synopses, soundtracks and mixtapes (trust me, they're important for both), and doing major retooling of plots and characters. I've been using 750 Words on the daily to work all this out, either by writing outtakes, character conversations, or world building notes.
In addition to that, I've submitted Diwa & Kaffi to two agents so far (FINALLY!!) and awaiting a response; I've had an interesting conversation with a fellow creative about storyboarding opportunities, how-to books and other ways to make money from creative projects, which has given me a lot to think about lately; I've even started writing poetry more consistently again. The main focuses here are: a) constant movement (which also means less distraction), b) everything's on the table to make this all work financially, and c) figuring out ways to avoid overthinking it all. I'm extremely curious as to where this will all lead.
And somehow I'm managing to keep on top of the walking and the stretches. Not exactly sure how, and I've missed a few days here and there, but I'm not beating myself up about it. As long as I move and stretch a bit and not sit on my duff all day long, especially now that the weather is finally getting nicer here in the Bay Area! Woot!
Hope everyone has a good week! :)
