You can either scroll down or click here to see my latest project: converting the videos I’ve always had on my site from generic Quicktimes or YouTubes to something that makes a little more sense.

Revver is a video processor that embeds a single-frame ad in the end of your videos so that instead of your content sitting there generating revenue for Google it’s sitting there generating revenue for you. You should get on it if you put videos on the web. I accept a 10% finders fee.

I’ve just completed the first draft of my second ever feature film script. This one is a post-apocalyptic comedy called “The Motherlode”. The plot is loosely inspired by the Steinbeck novel “The Pearl,” which I last read in middle school intentionally so that by the time I wrote this I would have forgotten how that story went for the most part.

Gettim Mud is the main character. He’s a sort of dim-witted miner in a coal mine in the middle of a wasteland. He makes his living scraping miniscule flecks of coal out of the rocks. Due to inflation, even a teaspoonful of coal dust at the end of every day is enough to keep Gettim fed…barely. The rest of the people that live in his mining camp seem to hate him universally, but he’s forced to team up with one of them, a man named Jesus, to escape the camp when he excavates a lump of coal the size of a bowling ball—more wealth than he has ever seen concentrated in one place in his entire life. They trek across the barren world with the coal, hoping to sell it if they can avoid being caught and robbed by his nemesis Harold, mutilated by rampaging robots or devoured by hyperintelligent ostriches.

If you or your company have some money and think you might want to buy it from me and would like to look at a copy you should email me.
