Hot damn, I've officially signed up for Robert McKee's "Story" seminar! Most of you probably know McKee from the great--and frequently misunderstood--Spike Jonze/Charlie Kaufman film ADAPTATION, where he was played by man-god Brian Cox. Yes, I think this will indeed serve as a fine excuse for not going back to the Studio Conservatory.
I'll need to find a place to stay in NYC for the weekend of October 24-26. I have a couple relatives up there who will hopefully be able to let me sleep on their floor, otherwise, I dunno, find a youth hostel or something.
After that, I might stick around NYC a bit, catch a play, or maybe I'll hit the road. After all, that might well be the perfect kick-off for my next big plan: freaky beatnik road trip!
I'm currently scouring routes in Road Trip USA, thinking about taking the interesting routes to Chicago, see Bloo and Misty, then hit Route 66. I'll post more as plans solidify (I'm not rushing into this unprepared, rest assured), but I think I know how I'll be spending the next four or five months.
