The Readthrough, The Play And The Graphic Novel ...
Well, it's been a busy time on the creative front of late. Last Tuesday was the first script in hand reading of my first theatre play, 'A Matter Of Light And Darkness,' and it went as well as i'd hoped. It was a great night, and very worthwhile. I had a lot of great feedback and i learnt a lot from it. All in all i have to say a merry time was had by all.
Then on on Saturday i went to see the theatre production of the play, ' The Utah Bride' by Carmen Medway- Stephens, which i would highly recommend you get to see if the chance arises.
And yesterday i finished up the last few pages of the script for issue 10 of 'Modern Days' which means that Volume One is now all finished script wise. All in all it's 245 pages of comic, over 400 pages of script, and five months of solid work and research, and so far it's my proudest achievement as a writer. I have to admit i'm really looking forward to writing Volume Two which i should be getting to in the new year ...

The Play's The Thing ...
Well, lot's going on at the moment. Just finished the script for issue 9 of 'Modern Days' yesterday, which means if things go as planned issue 10 should wrap up the story of Volume One.
But that's not the whole story. Oh no, there's still plenty more to come in Volume Two.
There's angels a plenty, there's gods and there's talking owls, there's old friends and new enemies, there's a mysterious priest who likes to wear frock coats ... oh, and there's tragedy too.
But anyway, i digress, that's all coming up next year.
At the moment, well, this coming week in fact there's going to be the first informal "script in hand" reading of my first theatre script, 'A Matter Of Light And Darkness'.
Yep, a real live reading, with real live people performing the parts, and not just the voices in my head.
I'm looking forward to this. It should be a great night. I've been busy re- writing the script inbetween working on 'Modern Days', and it'll be very interesting seeing how people react to it.
