Writer’s Block Once Again, and Books on TV
Yes, I am stuck on my writings and have also been busy with some freelance work. Happy that I actually have some work. Better than being completely broke.
Hoping I can at least bring myself to type up my old novels.
In the meantime, I’ve been craving a good read, but since I haven’t had the time, I found this:
The Dresden Files – Full Episodes and Clips streaming online for free – Hulu.
One of my favorite fantasy authors, Jim Butcher. I wrote before about his Alera books. The Dresden files are actually what he’s known for and it’s still ongoing. I started it before, but I was more in the mood for and old world fantasy rather than urban so I didn’t continue. Though the TV series attempt seemed to go a bit astray from the novels, they it was still good and made me want to read the books. I just wish they didn’t botch the production and just followed the books faithfully. Then, they probably would have gotten more than one season.
If you decide to watch the TV series (hulu.com lets you can watch for free online), they are mostly self contained and for some reason, the episodes are mixed up and you can tell just from watching that something is weird. The 8th? episode was supposed to be the pilot, but for some reason the third? episode was shown first and the pilot much later on the list… If they would have aired in order, the show would probably have done at least a little better. Oh, well…
