Things are progressing nicely with Slingers. I’ve been beefing up the show’s tech bible. A piddling little thing when we took it to LA, it’s now grown into the backbone of the future we created. Initially the fun and challenge was creating believable people, drop them into fantastic scenarios and hope there was a spark. Now we’re in pre production, these people have a past and the history of their culture is coming together nicely.

Don’t panic. It’s still more Ocean’s 11 than Dune.

It’s a nice feeling when you see something you dropped onto a page begin to come alive and it’s been a trip watching the Brownlees at work on this. Their work is now filling my hard drives and decorating my office. And boards like the one gracing my desktop at the moment continue to edge me on into directions I wouldn’t have thought of.

More writing, more meetings and a fair bit of drinking ahead.

Oh and I just this minute started writing our second show – working title: De-Tech.

Been a great week so far…
