Thoughts From My Kitchen Table

Random thoughts that come to my mind, plus updates of my endeavors.

caught up on the writing class

I had plans today to get caught up on the writing class that I fell behind on. I didn't know if I could but I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to get caught up. It's been really interesting so far learning what goes into making a story. One thing that goes into a story is passion, and that is definitely something I have. When I get an idea in my head, I'm pretty dedicated even if it takes years and tons of failure before I feel like I'm learning well. 

happy valentine's day

Phil and I didn't have a whole lot of plans for this evening but we did get a massage and now we're going to get Chinese food to eat at home. I think tonight will be a nice relaxing evening. This weekend I am hoping to continue to get the website completed and more tapes transferred, plus I really need to get caught up on my class. But I do want to make sure that I have some rest time in between that as well. The podcast that I'm working on called trapped in darkness is going to have to be on the back burner for just a bit. The website really needs to get done before Tuesday when we have our board meeting. The tapes are not too much of a rush because he gave me until March to get it done, but I will keep working on it as much as possible. Phil did get me some really cute things and useful things for Valentine's Day. I didn't really get him anything but I did send him an e-card and made waffles this morning. It's hard to think of what to get a guy for Valentine...

progress on the website and transferring tapes

 I have made a ton of progress, I think, on the website for Windsong Pictures. I have a lot of icons linked to the social media sites, and eliminated the items we do not require.  I just love this new transferring software I have. It makes transferring tapes so easy. It is so easy that I can use my movie editing software to remove black backgrounds and burn to DVD.  Now, I must get my lunch packed and get ready to go to work. I need to work early today so I can get done early. I have a ton of videos ready to be posted on YouTube showcasing the Monster Truck and Motocross shows we attended.  I am still on my social media fast. This is the best social media site, in my opinion. I can customize everything the way I want, with some limitations of course, but way more than any other social media site can offer and I don't have to worry about running into unclean content creators. I can make a playlist of my content to make it easy to find a post. I will only post my video...

writing class-what I have learned so far-lesson 1

 I have just started a writing class through Purdue University.  The first lesson has been explaining what goes into writing a story. As per the Greeks, we have adopted the strategy used by them when it comes to compiling a story.  Act 1, Act 2, Act 3 First, the hook.  Second, the backstory. Third, the trigger. Act 2 contains: Crisis, struggle, epiphany Act 3 contains: Plan, Climax, Ending I don't want to write too many details on this blog since I paid for this course, and the teacher might not want too many details given out for free. Hopefully, what I have written is not much different than most can pick up their own simply by watching plays.
