Because I'm blocked. There's so many different options regarding the story and what could be done differently in this version. I thought that reading the script was fine for my Fables album, but it felt somewhat hollow to merely adapt it to prose -- the best bits are the long interior monologues that weren't really possible for the screen. Plus I'm wasting time so that people have some time to chill out and to realise that the bidding war commences when I've finished my book (incl. the short films). - Regarding the shorts: Well, I wrote a half-page of the Brown Stain as a screenplay a few days ago. The 48hours script for Pushing the Boulder is fairly ok. Otherwise, it's all just a few random bits and pieces in my head that I haven't written out. - Instagram wasn't my idea... that's something where someone pushed me into creating a profile. I think it's shit, basically, but that is where the young people are. 🎥
