Just cooked some homemade pizza as my midnight munch :cool: and will continue my FM08 game with Zaragoza until some ungodly hour.

Trying to get Gillingham back in the play-offs on FM, watching the news, reading for my lecture tomorrow and tracking my folks flight back from NZ. Should really go to bed though.

Predominantly yeah. I used to write notes all in books and bits and pieces, started putting them together and formally writing them out as sketches.

I've been working as an extra on a few Tv shows and things, finding out how the hell I get my ideas out there.

My Uncle/Godfather kick started it really. When I went out and saw him the year before last in Malibu, he took me to Everybody Loves Raymond. Spent most of the afternoon on the set with the cast etc for an episode filming. Was behind the cameras and everything. Very interesting indeed.

A chat with the director and the creator Phil Rosenthal kicked me onto getting things going. Shame it's taken so long for me to be able to start doing this. Some of the things I had then have been used by people - their own ideas sorta thing.

But yeah, I attempt sketch writing - quick and can be very easy to just slot bits together whenever. If I get stuck with one person, i'll move onto the next. Nice really - just hard getting a portfolio together!
