ive not been blogging much. nothing interesting to say. decided to delete MILK and SWEETENER and instead am adopting a new approch to them both.

at the moment my life is chaotic and stressful

having a hard time of it

lost my inspiration and my happy-go-lucky attitude. yey for pessimistic cynical bitchiness

like nuclear war in your brain

makes no sense, but MILK is pretty much finished. just a few tweaks to do me thinks. and SWEETNER is already started. the two start with a very similar speech from DREAMER. tis nice.

SATAN
I'm on my way home and I hear a- [screech] I turn around. It's something and nothing and you probably don't really care anyway. I carry on walking. But everybody else stops.

VILLAIN
You're.. You're red.

HERO
...I can't stop the bleeding. I can’t stop it! Stop the bleeding. I can't.. Cant... Stop... Bleed... Blood-

CHARITY
Why is it that the people who want to die, live? And those who want to live, die?

Prepare for something special soon!

in a sexy voice..

..RANDOM EXTRACT. Oh yes!
its not the best. I'm saving the best for the people who bother to read the play when it's finished LOL. enjoy

DREAMER
The river is liquid glass, its surface too tempting.

PAWN
Don't try it, humans can't walk on water.

DREAMER
There was this one bloke.

GOD
He's gonna do it!

PAWN
You're not Jesus. You're just a Dreamer.

DREAMER
When I try to walk on water, it’s just the step before drowning.

PAWN
So don't step. Don't drown. Don't die.

DREAMER
You can't stop me.

PAWN
But you can stop yourself.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOO

Here they are, the characters of MILK. Crazy people but they make me happy inside.

CHARACTERS
HERO - Your stereotypical hero. But talks to Villain quite civil-like.
VILLAIN - Your stereotypical villain. Takes the mick out of Hero.
TRAITOR - Bad to good. Uncertain of alot of things.
PAWN - Follows VILLAIN around everywhere.
FAITH - Blind. Sister 1
HOPE - Quiet. Sister 2
CHARITY - Poor. Sister 3
WAR - Just bored of it all really. He's too cool
GOD - Indifferent. Really doesn't care much as long as he has bedtime stories and tea.
SATAN - Quite blar-zay. Quite good friends with God really...
DREAMER - Observer/Outsider. Just randomly talks to everybody

And there's mentions of a dragon who'll be one of the main characters in SWEETNER but for the rest you'll have to wait =]

cue heavenly chorus

it's finally done! ONE SUGAR IS FINISHED
yeyness.

well, excuse me if i go jump around my house lik a retard, im happy =D

so on with MILK and SWEETNER. background info.. this is part of my intro to the entire series. funny i wrote this before i'd even started writing MILK and SWEETNER lol

"SWEETNER and MILK are different in their content and in the way they were created. They're dream-like in style and reach a level seperate from the SUGARS. The two are partners in a way, twins that have common links and occasionally refer to eachother. If performing one it might be wise to read it's counterpart. There are what I call 'almost characters'. At the beginning of both piece there is a (very) brief note about each character. Like the SUGARS there are no set stage directions and the actors have a freedom within their physicality and interactions."

can i just point out, thats me being a poncy git. i dont talk/write like that normally =P

enjoy

came to say goodbye, love

almost alomost finished ONE SUGAR. just want a few more lines and then i have the perfect ending, but i wanna be able to smoothly link it all.

xx

she who dresses as hero..

2009-01-09T09:59:00.000-08:00

Yes yes, I'm dressed up ready to go to a party. As Peter Pan. Shush. I have no Tinkerbell. That could be considered rude if you have a dirty mind like me ;)

However on twith the business at hand. I'd like to thank doctawho42 for giving a randomass quote to me =D it'll have its pride of place somewhere in one of the 11 plays.

And here's a random section from ONE SUGAR to keep y'all entertained

E - Doubting you takes energy, which I'm starting to have less and less of. I realise this drowning thing is really a grand old irony. You see, it's not that I saved you. We just switched places.

N - You taste like someone's last dream before dying.

O - Closer, further, somewhere and nowhere.

C - What does it matter?

O - The world revolves around you.

I'm off to sprinkle fairy dust on people =P

Inspo hunting

Urgh, ONE SUGAR is the final in the sugars and it's killing me. I'm so not in the writing mood tonight but I want this done so I can set to work with MILK and SWEETNER. Damn.

And I still feel ill.

So you loverly people, randomness? Quotes or something. I can work with anything.

:]

Testing testing, walla-walla bing bang?

2009-01-06T09:37:00.000-08:00

So here it is, the first sample. This is take from the beginning of 6 SUGARS, and it's a little trippy.

JULIET - Where he walks, he owns. It's something his father taught him, before his father ended up dead. Not that that was any surprise.

OSCAR - If you have a skeleton in your wardrobe, I suggest you teach it to dance.

KILO - Sit here on the banks of my imagination and ponder a while.

ECHO - Ask me anything and I can tell you where to find it, that's how resourceful I am.

OSCAR - I mean.. You want to know about the whether in a certain country? News in a certain place? Or the latest movie blockbuster earnings? I can tell you.

KILO - Two words. Google it.

Tell me what you think.
2 SUGARS is now finished and edited. Just 1 to complete then the SUGARS will be done =D

New beginnings

2009-01-05T08:54:00.000-08:00

This is a semi-professional/ semi-crap attempt at a semi-interesting blog. Bored already? Don't worry it gets better somehow. Maybe if you read while taking recreational drugs or drink absinthe. [Though I wouldn't advise it, the downs are pretty awful. [No seriously, don't do drugs kids!]]

So, EIGHT SUGARS is the starting point for my recent writing disaster which will take the world by storm. Or force. Depends if I can get the manpower for world domination. Alas, hunchmen and goons usually turn out to be pretty pathetic.

It began with an idea, that turned into nonsense writings and pretty soon it became a pic n' mix of drunken rambles, emotional releases and highly entertaining waffle I talk. All just shoved into a word document, played around with and adapted a little, the birth of EIGHT SUGARS, a play.

So far the project notes contain the SUGARS; one - eight [for the extremely sweet toothed members of the public] and work is commensing on MILK, SWEETNER and AS IT IS. All of these come together to make the TEA series, a collection of short plays designed to baffle, entertain and enlighten.

But who knows if anybody will experience anything but extreme confussion?
