So here I was, watching the Joe Bob Briggs' episode featuring Black Sunday, or Mask of the Devil, or La Maschera del demonio, or the ten other names it was known under. It's a delightful tale about a witch who curses the descendants of the man who burns her at the stake, fun for the whole family. I love movies and trivia, and even more so when it's movie trivia. The director of Black Sunday, Mario Bava, didn't direct his first movie until he was 48. 

I think about this as I write my first script about a group of folk tale characters going on a road trip. When I was in high school, everyone used the term 'poser' to put people down while gatekeeping some new cool fad or popular style. I feel very much like a poser writing this story. Even though I think it is a story that needs to be told, it still feels unreal that I get to write it, that people might read it and like it, or want to act in it, or even worse, watch it when it is done and actually like it. For now, I'll start with the first scene, and maybe I'll finish it before I'm forty-eight.
