So, Script Frenzy and new babies definitely don’t mix. Ah well, perhaps next year.
On the upside, I’ve plotted the rewrite of the Trimes to death, so it’s ready and roaring, and the adaptation of the novel that I wrote for NaNoWriMo is starting to take shape as well.
I’m also just putting in my application for the Guiding Lights scheme, which would be very cool to be a part of (cheers to Andy Conway for pointing that gem of a scheme out).
Filling in the forms was hard work. They limit your answers to 100 or 50 words, so trying to justify why you think you qualify in such a small amount of words is challenging.
I like that though, makes you think – cut to the chase. I guess that’s why I like Twitter too. Short and sweet. In late, out early, that type of thing…
BTW, all you Ken Colley fans out there, if you saw the end of last week’s Holby Blue, you’ll know that Ken is making an appearance over the next few episodes, culminating in a climatic showdown with his son.
We went out for a drink with him a couple of days after he filmed said climactic ending and the poor guy could hardly move, he was a bit beat up by it all.
Hopefully it’ll be a good’n.

I’m totally loving Twitter. Took me a while to warm to it, but the challenge of saying something useful in 140 characters is much more interesting and ‘in the now’ than writing a long rambling blog post.
Anyone else out there in scribobloggerland feel the same way (apart from David and Shawna)? Feel free to follow me.
I’ve always been of a mind that blogging should be about journaling rather than an anything else, and Twitter seems more in tune with that idea than most blogs these days. But with more scope for conversations.
I just wish I could pluck up the courage to post something on Seesmic now…
About Andy Coughlan
I write stuff down and try to make films out of it. Sometimes I succeed.
I also write novels, like The Elementalist and code things, like Scribomatic, Brolly or Not? and Geeky Gifts.
Current projects: A short film, The Man Who Wished which I\'m also developing into a TV series.
