Published at Friday, May 2nd, 2008 in Journal. Closed

Script Frenzy is over, and I didn’t write the 100 pages. I made it to 38 pages on the 13th, then looked at what I had, and spent a day or two thinking about what to do.

I chickened out.

It’s three days to Fade In and I dang-diddly chickened out.

I admit it. I’m not ready to wrangle Cheap Cyborg. Shit, I’m not even sure I can write a 100 pages of anything in a month, let alone an ambitious, if messy and unfocused science fiction epic…
