A belated Happy New Year to all! If you're still managing to hold to your new diet or exercise regime, consider yourself a hero - I just don't have the patience.
So, what to expect from the blog in 2023? Well, there will be more screenwriting pieces up this year. I personally think I've focused a lot on the industry angle, and have strayed from talking about craft and offering practical writing advice. While that was part of this blog's goal, as stated before, I do want to share what I've found works for me and what I've learnt over the last few years as I've had to re-adapted to writing after the pandemic left me in a state. I'd also like to review some more screenwriting-related literature I've been reading, and not simply how-to books either.
What may not have escaped more longtime readers of this blog is that the output has sputtered some - the usually bimonthly pieces of past years have trailed off, with bigger and bigger gaps between uploads. Last year, I got swamped with gigs and this year, I have a big slate of specs I'm aiming to get through before the summer. Some in genres i've not tried before, so that's both exciting and fraught. As a result, regular blogging will have to take a backseat: no way I can juggle this and all that new creative work at the same time.
HOWEVER, be assured this does not mean you'll have to wait for several months - I will be endeavoring to prepare more pieces in advice and upload, ideally, once a month or so moving forward. Possibly every other month - just have to see. It will come, that I do promise you.
