Aye, I know I left the writing hanging a bit, and it might be exciting for some people. So I figured I'd give off some 'information', on this little project idea of mine.
See, I was writing this book, for a long time, and I do mean, long time.
Lol so. I wanted to take it further. I wanted to get 70 pages, but it didn't stop there. Just kept rolling, I wanted enough to get it published, so I had the rights to put it to film, where no one else could, know how that all is and what, the book itself isn't completely finished, even now.
And the idea's far from it.
After publishing. I've got camera crews, which were previous help in music videos, and other things. Which is a good thing, because outside of the writing, and the fact that I'll most likely end up playing the role of the villain of heros, as it seems with most of my stories, this one being no exception.
Outside of all that, I'll also be doing the soundtrack. I've experimented with rocking ryhmes, classic-sounding rock, heavy metal, and even a little twist of a falvor all my own.
Yeah, it's not as easy to make it sound good, so in general, it turned out crazy, as I'm sure you could imagine.
So you might be wondering "What's the story about, anyway?" Good question.
Johnny Chaos. Revolves around the character, Johnny, and Chaos, says it all, as he makes his way from being barred out of other nations, working as a government mercenary, into being a slum driven drunk, who finds the female in this role. Emma. Emma is found, inside of a trash can, hiding as he's taking out his garbage, she's beaten, bruised, and easily frightend in most cases. Now at first his bad boy exterior shines in, when he just tosses it in over her anyway, and closes the lid, but then he can't exactly ignore this poor woman in the trash can forever!
So, he goes out, finds out what's going on, and she tells him.. She's basically the ex-girlfriend of this powerful don, who now put a hit out on her head, and this brings up excitement, for mafia story lovers, aswell as playing into the modern scene, gang bangers, etc, with a few 'twists' of believable yet 'stretched' abilities, such as the curving of a car, leaping from roofs and such.
With the original thought of gaining money as his reward, where he'll find a little something along the way, and have another 'something' delievered into his life, then taken from him all in the same swoop, and let's Chaos shine.
As I post it, while it will no doubt take me a while. I hope everybody enjoys it, as I've enjoyed writing it, and hopefully the idea itself pans out right. |

So a lot lately. I haven't felt like doing much. It's weird, to explain actually.
I'm just watching life around me. All it's beauty, all it's courses that come along with that.
Along with its balance of 'bad'. To all that beauty. All the amusing pictures, I've put inside my mind. I'm back at it though. I've got some new feeling of inspiration, both with the help of a certain beautiful woman. ahem.
And then, just in general, by sitting and being 'calm' letting life drift on by.
Admiring the birds, that you can watch and they're so serene, but if you touch them, they die.
Staring at the clouds, and noticing how they seem to move so fast, when you're just standing completely still.
Sitting in a room with others, quietly, listening to each of their hearts beat, in a diffrent order, that's no where near, being like mine.
While mine seems so calm, it's almost like it's not there.
And that's what I'm doing lately, feeding off of the amazing things around me.
Figured I'd share, maybe someone else could think about it, and find the beauty that I've found these last few days.
Or, maybe not... time will tell.
Goodnight everyone.
P.S
I'm not ignoring you, Bronco. I'm glad you enjoy reading the material I put out, I hope you continue to enjoy it for a long time, just as I enjoy having everyone read it.
Now, to everyone.. give it five minutes, if it doesnt work, maybe it never will. *bows* |

Yeah no kidding....especially if it's going to be your career |
Both right, very right.
There's no real fighting it, if it's to difficult, or, perhaps people get on your nerves. Just like any other job, you have to go with whatever makes you happy if you ever look forward to seeing long-term results, over weighing the day to day rush that most people find themselves in.
On the other hand, if it's all boiled down to a few short problems, I might also suggest sticking with it, for the sense of, educational purpose, experience, etc.. And who knows if it's just a few small issues you've got, those, very well could clear up.
It all comes down to it being the question of "What do you want to do with your life?" And if it's "Yes." Then it's.. Do you want to stick with it, knowing full well that this could be a obsticle? or if it's "No." Then, it would be.. What needs to be done, before you just decide to jump.
You can move mountains on faith, but moving mountains, and paying the bills while you're trying to find your place in the world, arn't exactly the same thing. |

sorry... i did see this reply shelby i just wanted to think on this for a while, and the answer is, despite how run down i'm feeling.....i can't see me doing anything else, i love where i am, but on the other hand im not immune from some of the bad stuff getting to me..... i guess i just need to stop, take a deep breath and well... learn to relax, i gotta stop taking the bad stuff back home with me. get back to having my home as a stress free refuge.....
now enough of that from me, this story johnny chaos, im really enjoying it, your writing is always so visual and i really think it would fit nicely as a motion picture, i hope to see more soon |

And soon, there will be more delivered, no worries there. I'm just glad to see you got everything figured out, next step is just to stand 'with' the flow, rather than against it.
It's difficult, but rewarding. At any rate, welcome back and good luck. |

I've decided, to stop posting Johnny Chaos. Sorry folks. It's not that I dont want you all reading my works.. Simply put, it's tiring, typing up something that I've all ready previously typed up/written out two or three times over.
Sorry, to those who might have been enjoying that work. I'll make it up to you though, as I have been doing, with plenty of fresh-typed stories, that come out of my head, while im just sitting here.
Just sometimes, rewriting/typing something is like running it into the ground! |
