I'm going to digress from Writer's Block a bit in this post.
The resposne Shaun and I get from peeps when talking about some of the projects we are working on is so varied. Most responses are supportive, which of course is great. Sometimes we get people responding who it seems, came from the glass half empty school. They respond with lists of things we need to know. And don't we realize that we have to do this and that and this other thing and Oh it's so hard. And we don't know the half of it. And on and on. . .
They're right. We don't know the half of it. We know what we know. We have common sense and intuition. Do you need to have a degree in film to make a movie or write a script? Is that a requirement? Is it any less hard if you went through that process?
Sure. We will probably make some wrong turns. Maybe we won't know some shortcuts. There are possibly technical things that it would be nice to have had classroom time to try and develop. But guess what? We are now making our own classroom. And as long as we don't end up in jail or in debtor's prison or dead, what's the harm?
Besides, what the hell else will we do with our time here?

I asked shaun today if there was something we weren't clued in to. If maybe we are too naive.
Whatevs. All we can do is try, right?
you master G. did you know that you are in a rap song? Rapper's Delight but they spell it M A S T E R G to the double E.
I don't mean to brag, I don't mean to boast but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast.
