My move back to Seattle really screwed up my plans for the site, the team are also in their own side projects. I’m still able to watch great movies and other works but having difficulty finding time to write about it.
In the next couple of weeks I’m seeing a little of time I can use to write, but at this time I’m not getting my hopes up.

I’m a guy that’s been in love with fiction since I was a young boy, but what’s odd is I wasn’t a fan of reading as a child, I wasn’t even a fan of school. I remember sneaking out of school to catch the latest movies at the nearest theater. I grew up admiring anime, Manga, comics, and television. Spending most of my days as a child and then as a teenager admiring fiction gave me the dream of being a writer, but being rebellious caused me to never gain the skills.
The writing dream is still in my heart. Now I put the time and effort in gaining skills on becoming a great writer. So if you look over my blog and see grammar errors just know I’m a work in progress, revision is a writer’s most hated task.
Sometime last year a writer told me to not waist time picking up “how to” books on writing, their purpose is well but reading great literature and practice will help you more than those books ever will. Last year I believe I watched nearly fifty new movies and read ten books, great stats based off my adolescence, but my idols absorb hundreds of books and movies making me feel behind. The plan for 2012 is to watch 144 movies, read 48 books, and write two books. My plan with this blog is the showcase storytelling art based on countless websites, even though these sites are nothing but opinions so far it’s opening my eyes to some true works of art.
I’m also in school majoring in Business for some damn reason. I don’t think what I’m learning in business is really going to play a factor in my career goals, but I’ve started it, might as well finish. I’m gaining more skills and knowledge in writing but my career goal is to become a university professor in Seattle, which I forgot to mention this is where I’m living.
I have a team of writers working on the site and unfortunately we have a lot of drafts to finish revising on the great examples of storytelling, so be patient. Feel free to send us your favorite stories or whatever else you feel tell a great story. Overtime we plan to do more to the website so understand right now we have no clue on what we’re doing, we have a foggy vision, In time we plan to make it clear.
