I’ll be using this blog as a journal/sketchpad for my writing project in India. I’m writing a screenplay adaptation of ‘The Billionaire’s Sleep’ a story from ‘Tokyo Cancelled’ a novel of short stories by Rana Dasgupta. I’ll be in India from 9 February 2006 till 23 March 2006. The first 3 1/2 weeks in Delhi with Rana doing research, location recce and hopefully writing a first draft. From there I’ll head to Mumbai where I’ll be discussing production with several producers and directors. Then hopefully a few days in Bangalore, Kerala, Madurai and Chennai.
I’ll be posting images, ideas, quotes, thoughts and sketches so I’ll be interested in any connections/patterns you see emerging.
I’m now going to finish setting up the back-end of this blogging software. Wish me luck.
