John Woo's Lord of the Rings

Saturday, September 2nd, 2006

I was trying to come up with a decent title for my Noir Fairy Tale on the bus earlier when the completely missleading title above struck me.

Monday, August 28th, 2006

Glad I’m inside it’s throwing it down outside. Even a bit of thunder and lightning although it sounded like it was a reasonable distance away. Need to crack on with the current section of the Noir Fairy Tale so I can dump the hero back into the real world and have the same storm soak […]
