Long-ass week. The newsletter is written and goes out on Sunday. Something approaching normal service will resume here on Monday.

I found a screenshotting app that I like, so now I can add research/reference screenshots to my notebooking here. Given how much film I’m watching and the setups I want to preserve and think about, this is a bit of a game changer.

Just to make this a proper old-style closedown post, here’s some proper night music:

When you get most of the way through an eight-page script and realise it is Wrong in many of its particulars and properties and you need to rebuild the bastard from the ground up. So that’s tomorrow’s job. G’night, reader.

I’d been outline-writing and pre-writing all week, and I was sick of the sight of that document, and then around noon I realised I could see the whole of issue 10 and I had a bunch of it already done, so I’ve been here for nine hours (with a break to grab dinner) on BATMAN’S GRAVE 10 and I’m pretty sure I can land the last scene tonight, which gives me the weekend to use on an entirely different story document that does not, as yet, have an actual story.

So I’m going to say good night now, and I’ll see you probably Sunday or Monday. G’night.

Okay, so, I have issues 10 and 11 of BATMAN’S GRAVE all broken down. Tomorrow will be focussing in on issue 12 and nailing all that down, and then taking a last pass over the breakdown of all three issues to make sure everything’s laying right.

I am, of course, almost completely blind at this point, and my hands are killing me. But apparently continuing supplies of batmans are important and I am but a humble cultural worker building batmanism in the factories of the bat every day

come back soon for BATMAN’S GRAVE sequel batmans THE BATMAN’S SHOCKWORK, THE BATMAN ARCHIPELAGO and THE EIGHTEENTH BATMAN OF LOUIS NAPOLEON

Nothing exciting happened here today. All day arranging things inside the BATMAN’S GRAVE document – tomorrow I have to add more scenes and more connective tissue — plus phone conferences and messaging and some HEAVEN’S FOREST production stuff. And I did something I don’t normally do, which is agree to produce a one-page script for an anthology project. Which I’ll look at doing over the weekend.

G’night.
