film

an excerpt from Philip Glass' film, Koyaanisqatsi . . .

In this podcast, I speak with Dr. Reg Grant, professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, published novelist, actor, and apparently tap-dancer. In this part, Reg shares how two films affected his life (good timing with November's Artuality on movies!), and we begin our discussion of the artist's pursuit of truth.

Dr. Grant taught me about story structure and arc and character development.

This podcast runs four and a half minutes.

On The Writer's View 2 (a yahoo group for writers where we discuss craft, market, and career), Cecil Murphey asked:

"'I want to be an excellent writer,' he said.
'What qualities make a writer excellent? How do I develop as a writer?'
