In the middle of July ”Fåglarna tittar på oss” will go into production.
What will I do then?
I’ll continue with my adaption of “Mord i Malmö” of course. It will feel great when the first version is done and the rewriting and tuning can start.
Then I’ve received some great feedback on my short script “The Death of Old Tommy” which basically is about grammatical and spelling errors – sigh! I fooled myself thinking I could write English again.
I read as far as I’ve written on “The Beautymaker” and it is simply great! Wow, damn I’m good. Sometimes.
“ERG” I felt far less confident with after reading. That one needs rethinking. Maybe I’ll merge two characters. It is messy and out of focus somehow. The main character is as interesting as a slice of toast while one of the villains is far more interesting, not to mention her mother who is stunning. Yep, out of focus all right.
I guess I shouldn’t be too sad about giving scripts up. “The Beautymaker” started as a horrible script written about five years ago. I think both “ERG” and “Sunlight” will return and be far better than they are now.
“The Recreators” – a feature script very close to my heart – is up on a producer’s table! Since it has an odd structure I had given up hope on that one. But one day a producer asked for scripts matching certain criteria which fit my “The Recreators” I took contact, described my story and got a request for the script in return. I’m told the producer loves it, but as it is not set in our ordinary world, it will demand some budget. Let’s hope he finds people with money.
So, the future lies ahead and I can’t wait to get there.
