Film, Script, and Voice Over Update
So a quick bit about what's been going on.
Lana and Gerald, after funding had closed, raised over $2,000 from outside investors thanks to Carrie Evans, our producer and casting direction, for holding a short film festival. She is amazing! Lana and Gerald shoot this week and we're all pretty stoked about it. I'll be Second Assistant Director on the project, as well as taking on a couple of the minor roles in the production. We hope to have that ready sometime this year.
Writing wise I've been working on various script projects here and there. Three have been at the center of my writing world, although I'm not ready to publicly announce what those projects are yet. What I will say is one is a short film, one is a radio drama, and another is a feature length animation project. More on those at a later date.
In the voice acting world, I was contacted by the guys at Chaos Studios again, those who made Wolfception, a Machinma I was a part of last year, for another part. I look forward to seeing what they put together this time.
Otherwise, life in general is just one continuous adventure. I'll keep you posted as I do -sporadically yet meticulously detailed.
Take care!!

Wow, been awhile! So here's an update on Me!
Well, yep it's been a couple months since November. Sorry about that. It seemed more and more piled upon my plate during these last few months and things are finally calm enough that I can focus on other things.
These days I've been helping +Nathan Bayless develop a film project, Lana and Gerald! Our campaign needs a little boost!
In the writing world, I've been working on a lot of short film screenplays as well as one larger project that's nearing completion, thankfully. I had been diligently working on The Rise of the Gate Keepers in November but I've hit a stumbling block and I'm rethinking it a bit, which might take me 'almost' back to square one with it - but we'll see.
That's it for now. I'm working on a series of "How I do It" segments. More for me but maybe I'll turn it into a series or something. Not sure yet, can't really afford to overload my plate right now, as it is all ready is.

Small Update
Hello all! Just thought I'd drop a line to let you know what I was up too.
As you may have noticed the format of the website has changed. I'm currently working on revamping this blog while working on a brand new website. The new site which I'll announce sometimes next month, will be a stripped down version of Stories of the Sleepless Mind and my hope is to project a more professional image.
I don't know at this time if I will get rid of the original site altogether or not. I have invested a number of years into this blog so I don't just want to drop it. But we will see what my needs are come November and go from there. At the very least the new site will be a more professional site I will direct potential clients and this blog address will be a more personal venue talking about my week to week activities.
Sit tight with me as I try to sort this out. I hope to have some more news in November.
Keep in Touch!

Temporary Hiatus
Hello all!
First I'd like to say once again thank you to Making Connections and everyone who participated in the blog tour. I'll repost the list soon but if you want, check out my post from this past week to see what you might have missed!
Second, I'm taking a hiatus from my online life for a while. I'm making some radical life changes at the moment and being online, let alone writing, has to take a back seat until it's sorted out.
I plan to release Blender (Caleb's short story) sometime in September but there's no concrete date yet.
Until next time - be well and be excellent!
