500 or Less: February 2010
http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, 18 February 2010. Things I learned being married to the Shrew. I don’t feel I’ve adequately expressed to you my thoughts and feelings on your performance in “The Taming of The Shrew.” You haven’t said anything or even hinted at disappointment in this, but you deserve more. Here it is. I know this sounds like hyperbole, but it isn’t. You were that good, and I have the commentary of our friends and family to prove it’s not just me. I just gonna let that sit there for a moment. Links to this post.

500 or Less: A Really Bad Attempt at a Narrative Exercise (464)
http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2011/02/really-bad-attempt-at-narrative.html
Wednesday, 2 February 2011. A Really Bad Attempt at a Narrative Exercise (464). It was bound to happen. I knew there would be a day I’d be loathe to post what I wrote. I’ve half-consciously been putting off writing anything narrative. I just didn’t feel “ready.” But without anything else to bs about, I figured it was time. So I cobbled together an exercise for myself. I set the clock for an hour, and used these four websites to generate my elements. Http:/ www.quotationspage.com/random.php3. Joseph stare...

500 or Less: November 2009
http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 24 November 2009. Ephod Love Song (but actually 1061). As I’m reading through Exodus again I’m having lot of new questions. Moses is on the mountain with God and all the people are waiting down at the bottom. God’s giving Moses the tablets. He’ going into incredible detail about the Tent of Meeting and everything. I’m sitting here asking myself questions like, “why does God want fresh bread on the table? God likes pomegranates that much? Then we get to the consecration. Aaron’s got all...8220;&#...

Thursday, 3 February 2011. Untitled Narrative Exercise Pt. 2 (397). Nothing intervened, so I continued yesterday's story. A biting pain in his wrists. That’s how Joseph knew he was awake—and not dead. They were bound behind him. He was upright in a chair, and from the smell of burlap he knew they had hooded him. He heard a scrape of a metal chair across concrete. 8220;Where is your friend? The voice came from the chair he’d heard. The sound of a file being dropped on a table. Pages turning. With the hood...

500 or Less: Kyle Chandler's Acceptance Speech (as written by Neil Hoppe)
http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2011/09/kyle-chandlers-acceptance-speech-as.html
Tuesday, 20 September 2011. Kyle Chandler's Acceptance Speech (as written by Neil Hoppe). I tell you what: it’s such an honor to be up here. Never in a million years did I think I’d win this. Hugh and Jon and Michael have been waiting so damn long to win this thing I just figured they had already Indian wrestled for it. I guess my first thanks should be to Bryan for even giving us all at shot it. You know what I’m sayin’? No seriously, anybody know? Second. There is no Kyle Chandler without Kathryn C...

500 or Less: 497 More Words on Inspiration (& Work)
http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2011/01/497-more-words-on-inspiration-work.html
Thursday, 27 January 2011. 497 More Words on Inspiration (& Work). I spent the better part of the last twenty years waiting to be inspired to write something awesome. I didn’t get a whole lot written. Sure, I started a bunch of stuff, but I could never finish it. The inspiration (that feeling of invincibility derived from a catalyst) would run out and I would wait for the next catalyst to push me further down road. What a complete waste. I plan to double my output this year. Two screenplays. Two ...Thank...

500 or Less: May 2009
http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 May 2009. It goes to 11 (but actually 860). And sauntered down the aisle like we were meeting for coffee or something, totally wrecking my movie moment, but totally making it one of the best memories of my life. That’s you…and I wouldn’t want it any other way. I couldn’t survive if it was any other way. What I need. He gave me you. I am thankful. I am grateful. I am blessed. I can’t thank you enough for loving Jacob and Lorelei, Asher and Piper so well. Links to this post. Saturday, 9 May 2009.

http://wordslinger0044.blogspot.com/2011/01/473-not-very-good-words-on-success-all.html
Monday, 31 January 2011. 473 Not Very Good Words on Success (& all that other stuff). Preface: I wrote some good blogs last week. This is not one of them. They can’t all be winners. 8220;What does that kind of risk look like? I couldn’t answer him. But after this meander through risk/failure/inspiration/work I thought I could put words to it. Over the weekend I thought about it and planned to write it today. Then Donald Miller went and wrote it. Are you ever satisfied? I let it drop a few days back that ...
