Post 1: Unfinished Works

Well, not really stories. More like treatments. All of them unfinished. All of them waiting to be novels. All of them collecting dust on old pages in old notebooks, kept on top of a clothes cabinet in a room. 

Actually, I have been writing since I was 12....

Quiet, introverted, book-worm, big imagination...that's what it takes to be a writer. Well, some are. I can't say for the noisy ones.
As a child, writings on pages just seemed more interesting to me than people (the same sentiments I have on TV and film as well).
While young, I don't tend to get along with most people. So I write stories.
Well, not really stories. More like treatments. All of them unfinished. All of them waiting to be novels. All of them collecting dust on old pages in in old notebooks kept on top of a clothes cabinet in a room.

Older, once I have access on computers, I now type them and save them in a file. Some kept in a broken external storage. I hope to get it fixed someday.
But most are in my email. Saved in draft messages. Fully accessible as long I remember the password.
Still, even in my age, in my twenties, most of them are treatments and summaries. Waiting to be novels, TV scripts, movie screenplays.

I did however wrote my first short story during my high school day. It was not good. I'll probably post it here when I have the time.

 Now that I'm older, 25 going on 26 this year, I can think of better stories. Better situations. Better synopses for fiction and non-fiction. I think I can beat the writer's block than before.

However, time management and energy can be an issue.

At times, I feel like a failure  (am I really a writer?).
At times I am hopeful I can someday finish one.

Fun Facts about Treasure Planet, Disney's Best Animated Deep Cut

  Treasure Planet is my all-time favorite Disney deep cut. Adapted from the classic Robert Louis Stevenson's classic, it is one of those underrated Disney gems that hold some interesting facts. The movie has the record for the most expensive traditional animated film because of its extensive use of Disney's Deep Canva technique. According to Retrojunk.com is the technique that "allows a two-dimensional character to move freely through a painterly 3-dimensional computer-generated environment." The animated film was such a passion project for Ron Clements and John Musker, two of Disney's most successful Disney directors and legends. For Treasure Planet, they waited years to make it. They pitched the movie before making The Little Mermaid, Hercules, and Aladdin. When their then-boss still did not give them the green light to make the movie as promised, they angrily went to the higher-ups, and that's when they got their wish. Another fun fact is that they based Ji...
