writing woes

I've noticed I undertake certain projects with great enthusiasm only to falter and struggle. I say I want to write a story, but I apparently find it more of a burden.

Working on a wedding sip. Why is it all coming so slowly? Why am I killing myself? Oh, yeah, so a quarter from each sale can go to Marriage Equality. The Dragon story is no better.


I got edits for Eight Days Ablaze. Either I'm sick of it, or the story is REALLY boring.

24/50 movies

The P/F is whether it passes or fails the Bechdel Test 1) there must be 2 female characters, 2)who talk to each other, 3) about something besides a man.

21) The Adventures of Errol Flynn. Biographical documentary made in 2005, using archival movie, interviews and TV footage. Patrice Wymore and Olivia DeHavilland do most of the talking, along with second wife, Nora Eddington and daughters Deirdre and Rory. Excellent. And the To Tell the Truth segment where Don Knotts--sporting a pencil thin mustache--claims to be Errol is worth watching. (f, since the whole movie was talking about one man)

22) The Seventh Seal. Ingmar Bergman's classic, starring Max von Sydow. A knight journeying across Plague ravaged Sweden plays a game of chess with death to buy time. (f, 2. 4 female characters but none of them talks to each other, one doesn't talk at all from trauma)

23) The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex. Beautiful technicolor piece about Elizabeth I, and her love/feud with the earl of Essex. Olivia DeHavilland is the bad one here, in the hire of Vincent Price. (p)

24) For the Bible Tells Me So. A documentary about how gayness affects the Christian families, leading some to a new understanding and others to hid behind their Bibles. (p, a mother and daughter talk about the daughter's partner)
