Hello, Stranger Update

You may not care, but you are reading this, so maybe… I wrote a screenplay based on one of my short stories. The short story was an absolute riff on High Fidelity. It’s set in a comic shop rather than a record store, and it features girlfriends and weird employees. The crux of the prose story remained, but I took that spine and turned it into something completely different. There’s a funny High Fidelity reference, and our male lead does break the fourth wall, but that’s about as close as it gets to Hornby’s book or the movie.

I’m rather proud of it.

I don’t know anyone in the industry. Cold emailing people seems like a bad idea. The next step is probably seeing if I can get it hosted on The Black List.

If you happen to know someone who might be interested, feel free to let me know.
